| The tour guide knew so many of the fine details about the area that was covered in the tour that I looked forward to each of the stops to hear what she had to say. The shops and restaurants where we had samples of food were extremely accommodating, and the food itself was delicious. I went back the next day and used many of the coupons that were provided in the tour handout to buy quite a few food items. I will book another tour of a different part of the city on my next visit. |

| Our guide was good fun and very interesting. The food was excellent and we were full for hours afterwards. It was nice to learn some of the history about Greenwich and pick up some tips on good places to go for food and drink during the rest of our stay in New York. We were well looked after and I would definitely recommend this tour. |

| We had a wonderful tour. We enjoyed the mix of history and food. We thought the selection of tastings was very nice. Each of us did think that Murrays could be a better tasting. We were a bit disappointed with the choice of cheeses that we got to taste there. Overall we loved it all and would return for the additional tours when we can. It was so nice that the guide was so knowledgable and nice. The kids also had a nice time. Well worth the money spent. As an aside, we drove into NYC and parked in a garage right in Greenwich Village. Driving in and out was no problem at all. |

| I enthusiastically recommend this tour! I booked it based on the glowing reviews and it definitely didn't disappoint. Our guide, Cindy, was very, very knowledgeable, personable, funny and a joy to spend time with.
I had read prior to the tour that the food tastings were sufficient for a meal. That was an understatement!!! I easily ate enough food for two meals.
Later that night, I was able to take my friend back to many of the locations on the tour because I was so excited about what I had learned and tasted.
In a nutshell, you won't be disappointed! |

| Two days after the tour, we made reservations to one of the recommended restaurants.
(Cornelia Street Cafe) It was everything and more as promised. We're already planning another tour! |

| We were greeted by Cindy outside Murrays. Immediately we knew we were going to have a great time. So many things to take in and it was made really enjoyable by our excellent tour guide. We learned and laughed for over 3 hours..... as well as sampled some great food! I would recommend this tour to anyone. |

| Tour started on time at the Murray Cheese Shop and was easy to find as well as a short walk from the Subway station. Heather, our guide, was personable and well informed. The various stops at a two highly rated pizza joints was neat to compare the styles and taste. I loved the perfect brown crusts! We also had tastings at a more formal restaurant of a tasty cauliflower dish. The cookies at Milk and Cookies were memorable (I want one NOW). Murrays Cheese Shop had great tastings of cheese, olives. The Vegetarian Oriental Restaurant (Soy and Sake) was a shocker to find out that it was not meat. It sure tasted like it. The final stop at ROCCO's for cannoli's were to die for. We also enjoy walking the streets where it was more residential and learning about the history of Greenwich Village. The tour is worth the money. |
