| Our group consisted of 2 couples; one local and one from out-of-state. We thought this tour was a nice mix of food samples, restaurant/shop information, a modest amount of walking about, and local information covering history and interesting buildings. Someone doing a strict low carb diet might not be able to participate in all the food samples that were offered on our tour. Some, like our group, might prefer to cover a wider territory (more walking, less standing). Some of the revealed history/facts were really quite interesting, and most of the shops were outstanding. |

| After hearing about this tour from my daughter and her family, I decided to book the same tour for myself, another daughter and my husband while visiting NYC. The information that we received was great! The tastings were fantastic! We had a wonderful time.
We all enjoyed the historical facts about the village and the buildings. We feel more acclimated to this particular part of the City now.
With all the yummy tastings, well, let's just say that today we are specifically going back to Greenwich for some of our favorites and then going on more of our sightseeing! |

| This tour was one of the best things my husband and I have done in a long time. Coming from Connecticut, we thought this would be a fun day and we were not disappointed. Billed as a 'food tour' this is SO MUCH MORE! History, culture, and architecture were all covered in our tour. Our guide Barri was awesome. The food we sampled was divine and more than enough to satisfy.
We are already looking at booking the Chelsea Market tour! |

| The Cultural aspect of the tour was great! Loved that!!! I did not like the sale pitchs for each restaurant - to be quite frank, to be told what each restaurant specializes in was nice, but to know costs of the dishes made me feel like I was being handed a sales pitch each time a restaurant was described. That completely turned me off. Other than that, I found our guide Marie or Maria (can't remember her name perfectly) to be quite pleasant, entertaining and very educated on the area - but felt like she was trying to sell us on each restaurant. |

| I did the Chelsea Market tour last year. Both tours are great, but the Greenwich Village tour has the edge. The neighborhood is great, and the food was tremendous! Don't eat a big breakfast, because there is a lot of food on this tour. Our guide Mike was tremendous, and had so much information on the neighborhood. I had time to occupy while my husband had meetings, and this was a great way to see the city, break bread with others, and learn something new. Definitely recommend!~ |

| This tour was a great way to taste and learn about Greenwich Village. The only comment we have, is that we spent way too much time in the herb/scent store with the cats inside. If we could have cut it short, or cut it out all together, it would have been good. The rest of our tour was excellent! Our guide was great. A lot of knowledge!! Thank you! We would definately recommend this to others! |
