| LOVED it! Our tour guide had tons of information but kept things interesting. The food was wonderful. (We are ruined for any other pizza now that we have eaten at Famous Joe's Pizza.) We plan to come back and bring more people with us next time!! |

| This was my second time on the tour and my wife's first. While things weren't quite up to the same bar as a year ago (when there were more tastings, including a second pizza sampling), we had a wonderful time. The tour is a good value considering the number of tastings and the educational value (and the fact that you are spending only about $40 per person to spend 3 hr doing something in New York). We would recommend the tour to anyone without hesitation, but you should be prepared for cold weather and dress accordingly. |

| Everything was great ! Our guide Heather was very nice and very knowledgeable. She had all the aswers to our questions, told us lots of anecdotes and made everything very lively and fun. We got a leaflet with all the adresses we might need later. The food tasting was varied and very good. We learned a lot about Greenwich Village and this tour makes you want to go back and explore it on your own. |

| I lived and worked (in restaurants) in NYC for about 5 years, I was just visiting with my cousin and sisters-in-law. When I lived in NYC I took my parents on the tour and we all enjoyed it, my dad always says it was his favorite activity we ever did when I was living there. All of that to say, I knew the tour was good.....I did not however anticipate having the BEST tour guide ever. Marie (long blonde hair that was in case I got the name wrong) was extremely knowledgeable and personable. Our group was 4 ladies from South Carolina, my 5 from ga and sc, a coupe from UK and a single guy also from UK. I chatted with lots of folks and was all agreed, this tour was made incredible by our great guide. It was easy to see that all of the restaurants and chefs and people we were patronizing liked her and appreciated her calm and cool demeanor. She not only talked about restaurants and history but even threw in a bit of architecture. Her repore with on of the chefs was incredible (the chef at Palma). She made a point to introduce folks that were in the same fields and help start conversations amongst them and the members of our group. I have recommended this tour to lots of friends, my best friend Karla even booked the weekend after me, but following this tour guide I even sent an email to my friends in nyc and said this is a must do on your day off or when you have some visitors in town.. Thanks for a great tour Marie! You are the best.
Ps....last day of out trip we all discussed high point-low point, everyone in my group said the tour was the best part of our visit!! thanks, lisbeth rawl |

| My friends and I loved our food tour of Greenwich Village! Our tour guide was Cindy and she was wonderful. She has alot of enthusiasm and not only talks about the places we visited but knows a great deal of history about New York City. As others have mentioned, you are definately not hungry when you finish your tour. I would highly recommend this tour to others visiting New York City. |

| By the end of the tour the entire group had bonded over ice, rain and snow.
Regardless of the weather, Cindy made us smile and laugh. I could have stayed for hours longer w/ her over dinner and wine.
We are already planning another trip to NYC and will include another food tour but only if Cindy is our guide. We learned so much and lauched all day long.
Thank you Cindy, best time we had in NYC.
See you soon.

| We entered the city on a cold and rainy Saturday and made our way through crowds of tourists with umbrellas. After wondering if we had made a mistake in coming, we made our way to Greenwich Village via subway and were greeted by Cindy--a wonderful, motherly hostess to the Village. We forgot about the cold and rain and thoroughly enjoyed her enthusiasm for all we saw and tasted. It was a delightful 3 hours and highly recommended. |

| Sephrah made this tour an incredible experience! the lineup of restaurants was great and the distance traveled was well planned. But through the cold and rain Sephrah made us laugh and provided insightful, unique, passionate commentary.
can't wait to do this again! |
