what a fablous morning we had learning about the history, culture, architecture,and great food of Greenwich Village. Our guide was Sephrah - she was fantastic - One of the best thing we did while we were in NY - I have recomended this to all my friends. This tour gets a 10 in my book - I'll book another trip from foods of NY tours

What a great time! After it was over, all we talked about was doing more tours in different neighborhoods. Our Tour guide Keri was excellent. Don't hesitate... GO!

Food Delicious, Tour Guide Entertaining

It was cold and rainy, but it didn't matter, because Bert the Tour Guide was fantastic and the food delicious. Bert checked us in, offered each of us a bottle of water and free rain ponchos. Bert took us to over half a dozen Greenwich food establishments to taste samplings of Italian pizza slices; zucchini-topped pizza bread; olive oil and truffle-topped appetizers; yummy, hot-out-of-the-oven cookies, and many other mouth-watering edibles. He was very knowledgeable about the food, explaining everything in detail plus more. Along the walking tour, he even went over the history of the buildings built in the 1800's and how they evolved over time. There wasn't a single question asked that he couldn't answer. Excellent tour guide with a quick wit and great sense of humor; had us laughing throughout the tour. This was my first food tour ever - loved trying all the different foods offered; everything was tasty and definitely filled me up. I would absolutely recommend this walking food tour and Bert!

Greenwich Village Food Tour Was So Much Fun

On a recent trip to New York my daughter and I decided to try the Greenwich Village Food Tour. Our tour guide, Burt, did a fabulous job! Our tour made eight food stops within about a three hour period. Burt was very knowledgeable about every stop- the owners, their products, etc. We tried pizza, cheese, cookies, and several other great food items. In addition to the sampling Burt took us down a couple of local streets and gave us a lot of history about the area itself. It was a great afternoon and was something different that the usual tourist spots. I would highly recommend the tour and Burt- they both were great!

Even the rain didn't put a damper on this tour. Food, history, and personality. We should have done this the first day! Our guide knew her stuff; it was like she was introducing us as new friends to old friends. Don't miss this, you will be glad you made it part of NYC!

Great tour leader with lots of neighbourhood info

I went on this tour in 2003 and enjoyed it and recommended to friends visiting NY who also enjoyed. I may be remembering wrongly but this time round there was more time emphasis on food and less on the walk and neighbourhood for example did not see, Wawa hut or speakeasy I still enjoyed but not quite as much as before
