| I would recommend this tour to anyone intersted in New York City history or just plain food! We went back to the Village shopping and to the local pubs and had a great time! My hisband was born in Brooklyn and knows alot about New York City but he was impressed with your tour as much as I was. This was a fun tour and the only suggestion I have to improve it would be to include a five minute "sit down" rest once per hour (or stop in areas where seating is available whenever we sample food, even if only a ledge or planter). Our family found our feet extremely sore after the first hour of the tour even though we wore comfortable shoes. The bottled water is a great idea due to the heat (we had an overcast and slight rain, but still hot), but we found it insufficient since there is no time to get anything on your own. Maybe a liter size would be better or include a drink sample or place to purchase! |

| This tour far exceeded my expectations. Michael was an excellent tour guide, and we were delighted with the off-the beaten path nooks and crannies he showed us. He was highly informative and a great speaker. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and highly recommend it, and hope to return some day with my husband to take the tour again. This tour played a large part in making my first visit to NYC a great experience. Bravo, and thank you Michael! |

| The most important ingredient in the tour in my opinion was the "passion" Michael has for Greenwich Village and Manhatten in general. It was the vigor and positive feeling Michael manifested regarding the history and food of the Village that sold me. My wife and I would very much like to attend another tour and hopefully have a guide with as much enthusiasm as Michael has. He is an important asset to your tour. I highly recommend this tour to anyone with an interest in Greenwich Village East. |

| I would recommend this to anyone. Our guide was extremely knowledgable, friendly, and so competant.
It was a perfectly enjoyable afternoon not only for the food but also the history lesson.
Even coming from New Jersey, New York is always a place of discovery and re-discovery!
Thanks!!! |

| TAKE THIS ON YOUR FIRST DAY IN TOWN! The restaurants visited are fantastic, and we went back at night to enjoy different ones. The guide was exceptional, knowledgeable, personable and superb. This tour was the top-rated NYC tour on Cityscape and we know why now. An excellent way to spend three hours in the Big Apple. |

| It was fantastic! Totally worth the money. The food was great, and our guide was awesome! She had tons of knowledge about the area, not only about the restaurants but the culture and history as well. We learned a lot and we were happily stuffed by the end of the tour! |

| I wish the food tested at each location was more than in variety than what was offered.
I rather have something else Italian than try pizza. Or something else Indian like Tandoori Chicken than paraatha.
The tour guide was excellent but I did not feel I got my money's worth in terms of food. |

| My husband & I thoroughly enjoyed our GV tour and found it very informative. We definitely plan to try some of the restaurants we visited on our next trip. The feel of the tour was very intimate and our guide knowledgable and entertaining. I would highly recommend this tour and we will try the others in the future. |
