Not so much... : (

We were very excited for this tour. We are a family of four...two kids aged 15 and 12. Our children are "eaters" who enjoy everything including ostrich meat, lobster and even alligator. This tour was so mundane! There is very little walking and a ton of standing. We sampled 7 items and the food was fine. Our guide offered very few insights and although she was very sweet...she was dull. We felt like we had paid to listen to advertisements. This tour did not meet our expectations at all. I would say that if you have a physical disability and want to go on a tour this would be good. My father has mobility issues and I would suggest he take this tour because there was not a lot of walking...although I would suggest he bring his portable stool so he could sit during the boring standing around times....sorry, my family and I were really disappointed!

We had a lovely time on the tour with Saphia, who was very knowledgeable and great fun. The food was delicious and Greenwich Village my favourite place in NYC. We went back another evening to eat at one of the restaurants and visit Rocco's for more cannoli.

Our guide, Sephrah, was wonderful! We enjoyed all the extra bits of information about the neighborhood and the city. We never felt rushed and felt the tour was at the the proper pace. The 3 hours flew by! All the food was fantastic with the risotto and cannoli being personal favorites. I would definitely recommended the tour to any visitor or local alike looking to learn more about NYC.

I loved this tour! It was so nice to get out of Times Square/Theater District and go to this cute part of the city, which feels like a nice little community. Our tour guide, Heather, rocked!! She had the most interesting stories and tidbits of info. to share throughout the tour. The foods were delicious, too! I thought this was a huge bargain for everything we got out of it. Highly recommended!

I bought the tickets for my Dad and his wife as a Christmas gift and they wanted me to go with them to make it a family event. We had so much fun (and so much food!). It was a really great time and I learned a lot of interesting little bits of information about the food, history and culture in the city. Maybe I'll get them another tour for next Christmas!

This tour was great. We weren't sure what to expect but it was wonderful. You get the history and the taste for the village. We would recommend it to anyone who is headed to New York and looking to be a tourist but do a nontouristy thing!

We were a group of 4 -- 2 adults and 2 teen-agers -- and we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about the area, the restaurants and menus, and she couldn't have been nicer or more enthuastic. Two of us are vegetarians, and I was impressed that the tour operators were able to arrange for food that we were able to eat. Some of the foods were unusual, but all of it was delicious, and filling. I would recommend this tour for anyone - tourists and New Yorkers alike. You would not be disappointed.

The tour was incredible and far exceeded my expectations. Our guide, Carey Ann, did an excellent job. Her knowledge and enthusiasm could not have been better. The tour visits some excellent restaurants and food stores where we were able to sample some wonderful food. I will be definitely recommending this tour to my friends and look forward to taking another of your tours soon.
