| Cindy toured us through Greenwich noshing and nattering non-stop. It was a fun filled, detail filled and food filled expierience. It was also just right on all catagories. The food was well spaced, the information well paced and the fun..well it was continous. I would heartily reccomend this tour to others. The food and restaurant reviews were great but, the history, architectural details and the gossip exceeded my expectations. Thx again Cindy. It was lotsa fun.
p.s. name misspelled..it's gini or Virginia |

| On Saturday, April 2nd, four couples from Canada came to NYC to get away from the kids and have some fun. This tour was a great part of our group holiday. We were all impressed at the little facts and anecdotes regarding the history and culture of Greenwich village. I have to mention Chumley's as a poignant nook we would never have dreamt of finding on our own. Great food and stories - Spectabulous. |

| We are "foodies" so this was a treat...even our 14 year old son whose normally
only goes for hot dogs, hamburgers, mac and cheese, pizza, etc. loved the tour.
I'd recommend it to all my friends and clients.
Thanks again.

| the guide, michael, was very informative and entertaining. along with tasting great food from local spots (no chain restaurants), we learned the history of the entire village culture, including architecture and big news. we learned the "why" of many things, and there were always interesting stories associated with everything. a real "behind the scenes" look. highly recommended. |

| After seeing all the "regular" tourist attractions, we were ready to get more of the flavor of some of the "real" New York. This tour was the best way to do that. Groups are small (no more than 15 or so), and our guide (Rory, a terrific representative of her Greenwich Village neighborhood), made sure we had a good combination of food, history, and architecture information. The places visited on the tour, as well as those listed on the accompanying guidesheet, are screened for 6 months before inclusion. Also, the foods we tried were paid for by the tour company, not giveaways, so they are not "beholden" to any of the vendors on their list. We were given a bottle of water at the start, and the food we received was plenty to keep us going through lunch. That night we even went back, on our own, to one of the small restaurants we had been introduced to, and had a delicious meal. We would never have found it on our own. If you want a different, refreshing New York experience, this is it. We hope to do the Chelsea tour on our next visit! |

| One of those rare touring experiences that will leave you wanting to stop strangers on the street to tell them not to miss the opportunity to experience Greenwich Village through the eyes of someone who loves and admires her and knows her inside and out. |

| For the first time on a trip he wasn't disappointed with his "alternatives" and he thought it was a good tour. Normally he balks at walking tours but I told him he would be fed, so he agreed to go. We learned a lot and had a good time. Now we're looking for a local tour in California to visit. |
