| I think this walk is a great way to see The Village and learn some of it's history. Eating always making listening easier and I think all walking tours should have food included in them in some way. I recommend this tour to everyone. After we walked we went back and shopped a bit at the stops we had made. I will go back!! |

| The tour was well organized, lots of information on architecture, restaurants, stores and general 'flavor' of 'The Village'.
It gave us lots of reasons to return for eating, entertainment and further exploration of the area.
Our tour leader was excellent and knew his 'topic' well.
A highlight of our trip to the New York City area. |

| I love this tour! I took the tour in 2002 with my sister, sister in law & a friend and Cindy was our guide. I took this tour again with my boyfriend and was happily surprised that Cindy was again our guide. When I return to NYC, I would like to take the other tour & hopefully Cindy will be the guide .. again! With the exception of the rude lady in the group, everyone was lovely and the tour was excellent. |

| We had a wonderful time with Cindy as our guide. She blended food, architecture, local culture, and tidbits about NYC rents and real estate prices (quickly disabusing us of any fantasies we had about moving to a Greenwich Village townhouse). We had six food samples; I would have liked 8 (they're small but utterly delicious and great variety). The hand-out is detailed, extensive, and worth the price of admission. Group members are friendly. Highly recommended! |

| Our tour leader was Mike{Michael}. He was especially knowledgeable about Greenwich, having lived there for may years and knew many of the local people. His enthusiasm and humour added to a most enjoyable tour. After the tour we re-visited some of the stores and stayed for the Prix Fix Dinner at one of the recommended restaurants. It was intimate and service excellant. My only complaint would be that there was not much opportunity to sit and have a rest, but we so enjoyed the tour and would recommend it to all. Congratulations.
Also did the Chelsea tour, again excellant.

| Our guide was way kewl. Can't remember his name, but he was a colorful older refined gentleman with a hat. The food choces were excellent. Highly recommend this tour, especially the pastry choices. REALLY like the rice balls at the old "pork store". Our guide intertwined history with the food choices. |

| My husband and I are local and my family is from the Midwest. We all learned something interesting and thought the food was outstanding. It was a great walk around the village and the tour guide was superb. |

| This was my second time on the tour. Both Michael and Jennie are fantastic. Michael appealed to the history nerd in me and Jennie's knowledge and zeal for food are unrivaled! I've recommended the tour to many! |

| My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed the Greenwich Food Tour and have recommended it to everyone we have spoken with since the tour. Our guide, Jenny, was very knowledgeable and quite personable. Neither of us were aware of the interesting history of the Greenwich area. |
