| This tour was great!! Our guide, Heather, was extremely nice and interesting. The food was amazing. Do not eat anything before this tour. You get more than you can eat. The neighborhood is right out of a storybook. Overall, great experience!!! |

| My husband and I recently spent five days in NYC and took in a ball game, museums, Broadway plays and a trip to the Apollo Theatre. Included in our sight seeing plans was a three hour tour of Greenwich Village and the prominent food spots including food and wine stores and restaurants. It was one of the highlights of our stay and compelled us to return to the area for a dinner, gift shopping and desert. The tour guide was informative and energetic and made it a geat time. We would reccommend this tour to anyone interested in good food and the history of New York City. |

| I highly recommend this tour. The food was fantastic. The tour guide was knowledgeable about the neighborhood and was very entertaining. I thought a three hour walking tour would seem long, but it absolutely flew by. I plan to take this tour again when I return to NYC. |

| Kurt, the tour guide, was very personable, fun and full of facts. It seemed like he lived in the neighbourhood and his talk did not seem rehearsed.
The food was great and there was plenty of it! I would say you need more walking (to work some of it off).
I loved that it wasn't just about the shops but about the neighbourhood and we got to see things that we wouldn't have noticed or explored in any other kind of tour.
I come to NYC all the time and try different tours - this was one of my favourites. Easy, comfortable, fun, tasty, an excellent way to spend a few hours. |

| After hearing about this tour from a friend, we decided to check it out. We were looking for a way to sample different foods that New York was known for. Our tour guide was exceptional and her enthusiasm and knowledge really made the tour fun and informative. We visited many different shops and she knew all of the store owners by name and we got to sample many different types of food.
If I had one criticism, it was that there were too many desserts, and not enough local New York type dishes. I was expecting to walk away from this tour full, but I was only somewhat satisfied. More "main course" dishes would have been appreciated.
I would still wholeheartedly recommend this tour to anyone who want to learn more about the foods of New York! You will not be dissapointed! |

| This walking tour was one of the highlights of our recent trip to New York City. Cindy was an excellent tour guide. She was funny, knowledgeable and nice. The food samples were great, especially Bleeker Street Pizza. We loved Murray's Cheese Shop. The artichoke "fries" at Palma were to die for and it was so much fun to see their kitchen and courtyard. It was great to sit down and take a break at charming Milk and Cookies. We would highly recommend taking this walking tour. We will definitely book another walking/food tour next time we are visiting New York City. |

| My mother and a friend had recommended, so when I had a guest come visit the city with me, we signed up. Sefra (our guide) was funny, charming and knowledgable. It really helped having someone who is "into" food guide the tour rather than an aspiring something else (actress, writer, etc.). Stopped at some great places in the Village I wouldn't have found otherwise, had wonderful tidbits of food and information, and an altogether great time. |

| We loved our Greenwich food tour with Sephra. She was so knowledgable about the culinary arts, the neighborhood and made the tour so much more enjoyable. The selection of food was great and so filling. I couldn't believe how much food we ate in a few hours. The walk was reasonable with lots of stops to rest and/or go to the restroom. Perfect tour! |

| Get off the double-deck buses and get away from the tourist areas. Walk and learn about New York neighborhoods through the local restaurants. Immerse yourself in the real New York and you will get a more enriched experience. I highly recommend doing this kind of tour as the FIRST thing you do on your trip; that way you can return to a restaurant or neighborhood later on that intrigued or impressed you. |
