| 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. |

| This was one of the highlights of our trip! We can't wait to return to NYC to experience the Chelsea Food/Walking tour. Cindy, tour guide extraordinaire, was funny and really made the tour enjoyable and interesting and the food was fabulous. Two of our friends, native New Yorkers, joined us for the tour and they had a great time as well - and learned something about their city in the process. Cheers to all! |

| It was a great learning experience. Cindy was very entertaining. There are so many interesting storys within a few city blocks in the village. Things were brought to oue attention that we would have never noticed had we not taken the tour. I highly recommend it to anyone! |

| Our only regret about this tour was that we didn't do it sooner!! We had such a good time, and learned SO much, that we realized we should have done it our first day in New York. We knew the "samples" were supposed to be enough for lunch - but quite frankly we didn't believe it. We ended up being full after only the first few samples! Do NOT eat breakfast before going on this tour!! Not only did we get a list of restaurants & shops to take home, but we learned about where to eat and why, as well as the history and culture of Greenwich Village. And our tour guide was HILARIOUS!! She was like a character out of Saturday Night Live and knew everything there was to know about the area. It wasn't boring for a second! It was the best thing we did on our entire trip!! |

| I would highly recommend this tour. There was alot of historical information supplied along with excellent food tasting activities. I would not recommend this tour for the winter. It was difficult to pay attention with my appendages feeling as though they would fall off at any moment. It is necessary to have a tour guide who speaks loudly. Otherwise you miss some good information. |
