| I found the review to be extremely interesting. It was not only limited to food, but it also gave a background of the East Village history. I found the combination of both extremely interesting. Later I went to the Wine Tasting, it was excellent. I would definitely recommend this tour to my friends. It also gives you a nice selection of places to go back to in the Village. I went back to the Murray's cheese shop and purchased some cheese. As constructive criticism, I would add one more place in the Central Village. Also the guide should point out the location of the Wine Tasting (in SOHO) for those who would like to try it out. It is definitely worth it, particularly since they are New York wines. |

| The food we tasted was very good and our guide was very knowledgeable about the village. She told us great little stories about the neighborhood and made her own personal recommendadtions on where and what to eat. |

| What a great experience! This tour offered so much more than amazing food. I loved learning about the area, architecture and hearing funny stories. I just wish there was something like this where I live. I'm so looking forward to doing this again in the future. Thanks for everything!! |

| Unfortunately, the weather was cool and crisp, but that is hardly the fault
of the tour! I really enjoyed the Greenwich Village tour - we had a small group
of 8, and that meant the tour guide could pay us all more attention and
tailor the tour to our interests.
He kept us at a comfortable pace, made sure we stayed on the sunny side of
the street to help those with insufficient clothing, and was very enthusiastic
about the area and the shops.
It is especially good if you are an Italophile, as there are many many cafes and
specialty shops catering to Italian needs, the best I've seen outside of Italy itself.
In short, if you are looking for a relaxed introduction to the area, and want to sample
great food while doing it, this is the tour for you!

| We took the tour on Thursday, 3/10 and had a grand time. Cindi was our guide and her energy and sense of humor made for an informative and entertaining tour. We returned on Saturday to revisit the shops and eat more pizza! I have already recomended the tour to several friends and hope to return to take the Chelsea tour. Thanks! Ellen Engels |

| We had a great time on the tour and learned some historical facts about Greenwich Village while sampling scrumptious food. We had Cindy as our tour guide and I must say she was quite entertaining as well as informative.
I would highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to learn more about what Greenwich Village has to offer, especially if you love to eat.
Thanks again Cindy for a great time!

| The tour went on for longer than originally anticipated, but we were all having such a good time, nobody seemend to mind!
Cindy, our guide, is a local New Yorker and it was wonderful to have an insider's viewpoint on the area. She was also very amusing, obviously enjoying herself and added tidbits of infomration many tour guides wouldn't bother with.
I am seriously considering booking her for private tours when other people come out to visit me. It was one of the best $40 I've spent in the city. |
