| On a scale of 1 to 10, I give it a 7. It was entertaining and informative. The only issue was that our tour guide was a little young and seemed to lack the depth of knowledge of other more experienced tour guides. Although certainly passionate about food, she got some facts wrong about NYC architecture and history. I'd make sure the tour guides were a little better trained next time. Otherwise a good time - thanks! |

| This was the best tour we did during our stay. The tour guide, Michael, was great! and supplied us with so much more than we expected. The food was also wonderful. We would recommend the tour to anyone that likes history and great food! It is the ONLY way to truely experience Greenwich Village. |

| Excellent! Michael was the BEST guide I ever experienced on the very many tours I have taken in New York over the years. It was apparent how much he loved Greenwich Village. An extra, was meeting many of his friends along the tour route! This tour was one I will never forget and would recommend it to anyone in a NY second!!!! |

| The best part of the tour was the introduction to the history of Greenwich Village and how it got to be the way it is today. The food we sampled along the way was tasty and provides a good reason to go back and visit the Village again. |

| Our group all had visited NYC many times but were looking for a more intimate view of the city. The guide was knowledgable, the food was excellent and we recommend the experience without hesitation. GREAT FUN!!!!!!!! |

| While Zora, the guide, was quite good, the tour itself was lame. We walked and walked and only traveled a few blocks. Some of the information was interesting, but most was 'throw away' stuff. And the food was awful expecially the bland cheese pizza. Would not recommend at all. |

| a great way to eat and not feel full because of the walking. Good combination of history of the GV area as well as information about the stores and restaurants.
My only complaint was that we arrived on time and had to wait to begin because half the participants were late. It was cold and windy. |

| I was expecting a bit more of a walking tour, but it was still worthwhile. Our guide was very good. The food was tasty. And we even returned to the Village a few days later for pizza at John's (which was great). |

| The guide - Mike - led a very interesting and fun tour. Having visited New York on numerous occasions, we were lookin for a little 'local inside info'. Our group consisted of only four of us, so it was carried out on quite a personal basis. |

| I thought the overall event was good. I was expecting a bit more on the history of the area, the culture, and buildings. I did like the linkage the guide occasionally made between the food we were eating and the culture/history of the village...but these were too infrequent for my taste. |
