| I would definitely recommend the Greenwich Village Food tasting. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed the site seeing and the food was delicious. I would recommend bringing an additional bottle of water; one is supplied by the Company, but it is a long tour and a ton of food. I would suggest NOT eating a few hours before the tour because you are given a TON of food during the tour!!! |

| This is the 2nd walking food tour I've done. (Chelsea Market last month - great!). My date and I had a wonderful time. Our tour guide, Maria, was awesome! She was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the tour. She actually lived in the neighborhood for years, so she knew all sorts of things. The food was fantastic! We were totally stuffed at the end. This was a great way to see a part of New York maybe you wouldn't normally see. It was about a 10 min subway ride from 42nd street. These food tours are a must if you're looking for something different to do. |

| A great way to start a holiday in New York. Not only helps to get your bearings, and feel for New York, but builds a good list of restaurants and food outlets you can come back to that are well rated. Well worth it!! |

| We enjoyed the tour and the food samples were excellent. Even the two of us who had lived in the Village learned a few things. Guide was friendly and did a good job keeping us going. One criticism was the long descriptions of restaurants that started to feel like commercials. Same group did the Chelsea Market tour last year. They were both good, but if we had to choose one it would definitely be Chelsea. |

| Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly and interesting. She helped us discover and become familiar with Greenwich Village. We returned to one of the restaurants (Pesce Pasta) and had a lovely dinner. |

| We both really enjoyed the tour. We thought we would just be eating little nibbles - not whole slices of pizza, whole cookies, whole olive bread twists etc. Our guide was enthusiatic and informative. This was a great tour. If we return to NYC we'll definitely book up for another tour - to sample the food in other areas - and we'll be recommending the Greenwich Vllage tour to friends. Thank you.
P.S. It was the BEST chocolate chip cookie that I have ever tasted!! |

| I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting NYC. All of the food sampled on the tour was delicious and very filling. In addition, our tour guide was extremely friendly and knowledgeable of the city. At the end of the tour, our guide was also willing to answer additional questions any of the participants had.
I also appreciated that the guide ensured that the tour group did not disrupt the residents of the neighborhood. The tour group appears to have a good working relationship with the restaurants involved in the food tasting tour, and many of the restaurants were willing to allow the tour group to visit the dining areas as they prepared for the day. The small group size also benefited the tour. |

| I have gone on the tour twice--the first time I went with my daughters and enjoyed it so much that I encouraged my husband to go when we visited New Your again. My guides both times--Barrie (sp?) and Sephra were outstanding. I enjoyed both the food and historic part of it. I did a similar tour in Boston, but this was 1 hour longer and the amount of food we received was substantially more. All the food was delicious. I liked it that the food reflected the neighborhood. Also, we received some tips about restaurants that we returned to that although not in any of the books, were gems. Stopping at the wine bar midpoint provided a good rest. This tour we stopped at Palma's for a food tasting which we did not do the first time and it was fantastic. I liked going to Palma's because it was a restaurant and added something different in addition to the shops we stopped in. Thanks for a great experience. |
