My daughter (18) and I had a great time with Curt our guide and the other participants on our first sightseeing tour of this kind. Curt was exceptional and the food we tasted was simply delicious and believe me, we love good food and know the difference! It goes without saying that we went back the next day to get some more goodies and to have dinner at the recommended restaurant "Le Gigot". We took our friends from Long Island there and we all simply loved the place, the service and particularly the food. We certainly recommend the tour as well as this restaurant but make sure to make a reservation as they have limited space. On our next trip to New York we will definitely book another tour to broaden our culture! Thank you Curt for some wonderful moments and insights!

I love our tour guide and how he is chalk full of tidbits about not only Greenwich but NYC in general. The tour made me appreciate NY more and gave me better insight into how locals live. Oh yea, the food was splendid.

This was an excellent way to learn about an area which may otherwise have missed and the tips we got on resturants saw us well for the remainder of our stay. We did not have one bad meal after ths tour. The food samples we had looked quite small at first but we had 8 in total by the end of the tour and we were extremley full and did not need anything else until a late dinner. Would definatly do another one were we to visit NYC again.

Fantastic Food Tasting & Cultural Tour!

What a fantastic tour. We met our tour guide Barri outside Murray's Cheese Shop on Bleeker Street, and we were wondering how the tour would go, as it was extremely cold, and snowing intermittently, and the tour was to last for three hours. We need not have worried, because from the moment we started the tour of Greenwich Village, the cold and the snow did not seem to matter, Barri was extremely knowledgeable and interesting, we learned so much about the history of the shops, restaurants & the area, and the food tastings were fabulous, and three hours seemed to pass in 3 minutes. The only problem was that we wanted to go back and eat in every establishment that Barri took us to, so that means we will have to visit New York again, and this time stay closer to the village. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting New York, it was truly wonderful, and worth every penny. Thank you Barri.

I booked the Greenwich Village Food & Cultural tour for myself and my boyfriend; it was a surprise Christmas gift for him (he's impossible to shop for). A few of our friends and family joined as well, and while I felt slightly nervous before it started that it wouldn't live up to people's expectations, we ALL had an amazing time. Even though it was very cold (definitely dress in comfy shoes and layers) our tour guide (or guidess!) Sefra took us to about 8 wonderful places giving us rich history "lessons" and a ton of humor to boot. This was a definite highlight of our trip, and I would highly recommend it to anyone! Thank you Sefra.
