| I've been to New York several times for business and each time I always like to squeeze in some time to discover a new part of the city. I have been to the village before, but never knew anything about the restaurants, the neighborhood and the history behind it. Being a foodie, I came upon the opportunity to do this tour. Besides just sampling different kinds of food (each tasting was wonderful), I got to learn more about Greenwich Village and what makes it so unique. Susan, my tour guide was very upbeat and informative. She made the tour very enjoyable and also mentioned she did tours of the Bronx as well, which will be something I'll look forward to the next time I come to the city! I definitely recommend this tour! |

| The tour was interesting but our tour Guide, Mike, talked too much and the tour lasted for 3 and 1/2 hours. He gave too much information on things that nobody was interested in. He should have stuck to the food and local history. Instead he told story about local people whom are not famous. The food was good but not fantastick. |

| My friends and I enjoyed the trip, the guide talked to everyone and we all interacted. It is a much better time if the weather is good as it was the day we went. It would be a nice touch if at one or two of the establishments there were tables to eat at or put your things on so you could eat better and have wet ones available for your hands. We did go back to 4 of the stores we were told about and shop for things to bring home. The driving map to the parking garage needs to be improved . |

| Our group of five ladies from Arkansas took the Greenwich Village food tour led by Susan. We found her to be very informative about the area and we were surprised by the size of the food samples we were given. They were quite sufficient and very tasty! Naturally we talked about the desserts for days! I would certainly recommend this tour for anyone, whether they are local or from out of town. If I go back with my husband I will probably want to take the tour again with him because I believe he will really enjoy it. |

| This was a special event in our "girl" trip to NYC to celebrate a 21st birthday! ....Mother, daughter, and two grandaughters participated in this, and it appealed to ALL of us! We are all adults and decided to do it again when we return, and highly recommend it to others. Our guide, Cindy Keiter, was SUPERB!!! Cultural and historical facts made the tour so interesting, accompanied by delicious snack/examples from various sectors of the retail food offerings in Greenwich. We purchased meals/goods/etc. from many of the places visited on our tour and returned a day later to enjoy more!!!! LOVED IT!!!

| i took my mother on the tour because she was visiting me from seattle. she loved it. it's a great way to get to know the west village and to learn local history. also, it made us very confidant in buying food in the neighborhood. our tour was on a thursday and we went back on saturday and bought food in two of the stores that were on the tour.
our guide's name was cindy, she was great. |

| My girl friend and I loved the tour . It was very informative and we loved all the history as well as the great food. Our guide Todd was friendly and knew his stuff. The tour group was small and it gave us a feeling of being up close and personal with the other memebers. I would definately recommmend this tour to everyone. It was the best part of our trip in the limited time we had in the City. Next time we come we plan to do another of your tours. Thanks for a great time, Todd |
