| I thought we would just be walking around eating tiny samples. But I loved the amount of food we received. I was completely stuffed by the end of the tour. Plus our tour guide Kirk knew alot about the area and the history of the village, it was alot more than just eating and walking around. The 3 hours just flew by and I was kind of sad that it was over when we reached then end. |

| We had a wonderful time on our tour. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly and fun. He made the neighborhood very personal to us - describing people, buildings and history. We also enjoyed the food which was delicious and more than plenty! We would do this tour again and highly recommend it. |

| I had two 18 year olds with me and they had a great time. The food was good and the information provided by the tour guide was really interesting. She was very much aware of what was going on in Greenwich Village and you could tell she enjoyed her job. |

| This is a tour for you if you enjoy good food and would like to know some history of the historic Village. Our guide, Barry, kept the conversation lively and food stops in great order to just keep one wanting more without overfilling. Her knowledge and interest in the area showed the entire tour. A nice variety of foods were supplied along with history of the particular area you were in. A great New York experience! |

| My husband and I have been to NY several times, but this is the first time we have ever done a food/history tour. We chose the Greenwich Village tour, and had such a great time, we will definitely be doing the rest on our return trips. I so enjoyed learning the history of the neighborhood as we walked through the quiet, tree lined streets. There is no better way to learn the history of a place than to be there.
The food places we went to were excellent. We loved seeing the "out of the way" places that are loved by the locals. We ate so many great things! After the tour, we went back to Greenwich Village -- twice -- because there were so many places we wanted to try and we felt very comfortable in the neighborhood.
On a sidenote, we wondered why the tour made a point to talk about Cones and L'Arte del Gelato, but barely mentioned Grom. We did a taste test of the places, and found Grom to be hands-down the best. It made us wonder why it was brushed under the carpet. Hmmmm.... |

| I loved everything about this tour. Michael our guide was great; witty, interesting and very knowledgeable!!! The food was fantastic and there was much more of it than I ever imagined!!! I learned a lot and saw things I never saw before (the back buildings and hidden gardens behind some buildings). I grew up in NYC and didn't really know this section of the city!! I would recommend this tour to anyone (should understand English though). |

| NYC Tours was recommended by another friend, but did not do it justice. We had a group of 8 and almost everyone called the next day to thank me for organizing the event. The guide was excellent... her energy, humor and knowledge made for a very fun day. The food tastings were varied and provided much larger portions than expected. We never made it to dinner afterwards and retuned to Rocco's for the best iced cappuccino ever!
We're trying the others one by one. |

| Tour was well organized and well planned and executed. We had Cindy as our guide and she was terrific. Nice blend of food tastings, history and fun facts about the neighbo hood. |
