| Great tour. Found an excellent French restaurant, Le Gigot, and oyster bar, Fish, and learned more about the village than any book or general tour. |

| We all three really enjoyed the tour as it exposed us to a great variety of food with many exciting places to revisit. The tastings are very generous and more than enough to be considered as lunch. I believe the guide could have shortened the historical portion of the Village just a bit to shave off 15 to 30 minutes. More than 3 hours with a group starts to feel too long, when the tour and information is really very interesting. Our guide was friendly, informative, and enjoyable to follow. You could easily tell that she was respectful of the restaurants, enthusiastic about food, and knowledgeable about the entire area. She was superb. |

I would definitely recommend this tour

| This was a great way to spend the day, and I learned a lot about the history of Greenwich Village. The food samples were all yummy and good-sized, and there was a fun story to go along with each of the restaurants and shops. They showed us several quaint restaurants that I never would have found otherwise as they weren't in the normal restaurant guides. We went back to one for dinner and had a lovely dinner in a courtyard without reservations and the hassle of the more popular hotspots. Given the amount of food tastings and quality of the tour, I think its a very fair price. |

| Really worth doing. Tour guide was fun and knowledgable, and the tour length was about right. We learnt lots of things about Greenwich village which we wouldn't have found out otherwise, and the food tastings were great. Having the bottled water supplied was a nice and essential touch. We certainly plan to re-visit some of the places visited and would certainly want to do the other food tasting tour of Chelsea.
A real find and great value for money! |

Way Fun !!

| We are so happy we chose to do this tour. We had been to NYC 2 years ago and I thought about it but never really followed through. It was such a great way to see the Village. We learned so many interesting facts that I have shared already with so many people. I want to be able to find "Chumley's Speak Easy "again. We loved all the foods we sampled and the variety of them as well. Our guide was very interesting and had the best and quirkiest sense of humor. He was young at heart and had the sayings and soul of someone older than his years. I would take this tour and plan on a nice afternoon. |

This was a great tour with a great group of people from worlds apart coming together to see, taste and learn about Greenwich Village. Kurt, our tour guide was very informative, funny and pleasant. This was definately a treat and a highlight of our trip to New York. You'll sample many tasty treats and learn alot of interesting history about this area.
