| The four of us, two women and our husbands have been to Greenwich Village many times on our visits to New York. But this was the first time we thoroughly enjoyed walking through, leisurely stopping at places, looking into windows, meeting shop keepers, tasting different foods, learning about the history of the neighborhood an New York, and generally having a good time.
Our tour guide, Sephra, was well informed, humorous, provided all kinds of information about places, buildings, restaurants, where to eat, places of interest, and people who live in the village. Because of her we later came back and ate at The Commerce Restaurant (good Sunday Brunch), and enjoyed an outstanding performance of Judith Ivey at the Cherry Lane Theatre. We later also frequented other places on our own, and felt like we really knew the neighborhood. If I moved from San Francisco, I would probably move to Manhattan, and live in the village. Sephra was a terrific guide--make sure she stays with your organization. She was a bonus. Elise Kazanjian |

| After doing the Greenwich village tour I an certain that I will do one of the other areas next time i am in New York. Tour guide was great. For the money probably not a better value for the experience. |
|
We thoroughly enjoyed this tour!

| My husband and I booked this tour prior to arriving in Manhattan. A friend highly recommended this tour and we agree ~ great value. Our guide (Heather) was very knowledgeable (about the food and area) and enthusiastic. All the food we tasted was delicious but most of all, we loved walking around Greenwich Village. On our next visit, we will definitely take another tour and visit another area. |

| This is well worth the time if you are a foodie and don't know New York very well. I have been to New York on several occasions, but it takes someone that knows the area to really show you around. I found the 3 hours totally worth it and will consider doing another tour of a different area in the future. Our guide was pleasant and knowledgeable. |

Interesting walk in a nice area.

| Very interesting walk and information in an area we didn`t have found on our own. We had wished for more time inside the shops/restaurants and more time for shopping from the stores.
Interesting information about the area, ex views from Friends and Seinfeld. |

| Cindy (our guide) was AMAZING!!! Not only was she extremely knowledgeable of the area and restaurants, it was like having a history professor guiding us! She made a rainy day quite enjoyable. The different foods on the tour were great and of a wonderful variety. I highly recommend this tour. |

| This was an interesting tour. It was a wet and cold day and you need suitable clothing and foot wear as you are out of doors for alot of the time.
The food tasting was very enjoyable and a good variety. |

| Dispite the rainy weather, our Guide gave us an interesting, funny and all in all great tour. She made sure we didn´t get too wet by getting us in to restaurants and shops all around the tour. She had a good sense of humor and knew the nabourhood very well. Excelent experience for first time visitors in New York. |
