| This is was very fun tour! Dave our tour director was easy going, prepared, informative and organized. The food destinations were diverse and interesting. The only constructive thing I would say is that it was a bit long. For us, it would have been better to have it 2 or 2.5 hours instead of 3. I would highly recommend this to anyone and plan to take the SoHo food tour the next time we are in town. |

| This was the perfect way to not only get a feel for the city but learn about and try some superb food offerings. We immediately booked at one of the restaurants, Palma for dinner and were not disappointed. I will be recommending this tour to any of my friends who plan to visit. It simply is a must. |

| I thought that the tour was awesome. There was good variety and lots of explanation as well. The guide was very knowledgable about the food and the history surrounding the area. My only let down was the guide asking for gratuity but that is just part of the business. I felt that I had paid a good dollar to be part of the tour and that should have been enough. I highly recommend it to any one wanting to see a different, quiet part of New York. |

| I attended this tour with two long-time friends and we all greatly enjoyed it. It was a fun and educational way to spend a beautiful afternoon. I saw parts of the Village that I didn't know existed, even though I've lived in the NY area my whole life. |

| Marie knew a lot about the Village, but there were a couple of moments where I sensed that she was full of BS (celebrity addresses, moving plans, etc.). Also, she didn't know very much about the food we were sampling. She had memorized some things about each dish, but wasn't capable of discussing the food beyond what she had memorized. She was overly enthusiastic at points and very annoyingly patronized a young boy on our tour. His mother made it clear that he was a foodie, and she kept talking to him like he was a kid who didn't like fancy food. She didn't really know anything about the cheese we sampled, mispronounced the title of a Cuban dish, and didn't even discuss the cannolis we ate. She passed them out wordlessly. |

| Our guide, Cindy, made the tour a lot more interesting then I thought it might be. She was very friendly and fun to hang out with. |
