| The day was perfect in every way! Our tour guide, Barri, was delightful. She was knowledgeable, funny, and interacted with everyone positively. There were 16 of us and we ran the gamut--a 1 year-old who loved every minute of the tour to our senior member, a 75 year-old grandmother. There were "picky " eaters among us and they loved everything they tasted!! We all learned something new, historically, architecturally and "cuisineally". We'd love to do another similar tour but this is the only one offered on Wednesdays. Many "local" communities bring buses into Manhatan on Wednesdays for matinees. However, there are many who choose to do other things. So think about adding other tours similar to this on Wednesdays. |

| Tour Guide Barri did a masterful job introducing me, my daughter, and baby granddaughter to the fine foods of Greenwich Village. Nearly seventy degree weather and sunny in October in NYC? You bet, I carried those warm weather feelings all the way up from Florida and Barri brought knowledge, enthusiasm, and great food to our to little group.
Way too difficult to pick a favorite nosh from the tour, but my Brooklynite vegetarian daughter will be revisiting Soy and Sake for sure, I'd head over to Milk and Cookies anyday. In addition to the great snacks was a brief and wonderful history of Greenwich Village presented artfully by the tour guide.
Asian, Mediterranean, Italian, and American - it's all there and it's all good. Don't pass up this opporTOURnity!!!! |

| ...with good food! It was easy after the tour to continue familiarizing oneself with the area. Our tour guide was a real pro in introducing the delicious food we ate to us as well as in telling about the history and today of the restaurants and environment. This was the second time within a year we attented your tour (the first tour was Chelsea - Meatpacking district), and what a surprise: the tour guide was the same guy, Kurt. Thank you, Kurt, for a fabulous time in West Village with you! Besides, now that we knew something about Chelsea - Meatpacking district we had no problems going there on our own this time. |

| My husband and I absolutely loved the tour. It was a great way to learn more about the village while sampling some amazing food. Our tour guide was fun and very knowledgeable. Not to mention the portion sizes were huge. We were stuffed after we stopped at eight restaurants. In my opinion this is a must for all travelers! |

| My wife and I enjoyed the tour very much. We have visited NYC a few times before, but never got to see Greenwich Village. The tour was very interesting and informative. The tour guide was great. The food was great. |
