| The group was the right size and our tour guide kept things moving nicely. She had great stories about the food, people and lore of the neighborhood. It was the right balance. Having recently eaten breakfast my friend and I opted to share portions at many of the places because it was really plenty of food. |

Well worth the money!

Couple on a Date |
| We (husband and I) had a fantatic time on this tour. Our guide, Marie, was friendly, knowledgeable and very well-organized. We tasted many different goodies--from pizza to Asian food to home-baked cookies--and came away satisfied. A sit-down "tasting" was planned for mid-way on the 3-hour tour, so there was a chance to rest and use the potty. My only advice is to do this tour early in your NYC trip as it will give you lots of ideas for places to which you'd like to return for a full meal. |

A highlight of our trip to New York

| Some friends and I went on this tour while we were visiting in New York--it was one of our favorite experiences of the trip. Greenwich Village is so beautiful, it has a very quiet and relaxed atmosphere, and some of the best restaurants! I can't wait to visit New York again so that I can re-visit those restaurants and have more of that yummy food! It is definately worth the time and money you'll spend for this tour. |

| Good variety of food and I liked learning the history of the area. I would definitely be interested in another tour if I am ever back in NYC. |

| A friend of mine (a food fiend) recommended this tour. I have to agree with him, it was an wonderful tour. Barri gave us a tour of old and new Greenwich. I would never have seen these areas, and thoroughly enjoyed in. I am planning to go again the next time I am in town. |

| We took the Greenwich Village Food Tour led by Murri - it was excellent.
We started at Murray's Cheese Shop and continued to enjoy not only great tastings but wonderful history and trivia about the architecture of the neighborhood.
Certainly we would not have found out about some of the great restaurants and quaint shops had we not done the tour.
Can't wait to come back for another neighborhood tour. |

| My friends and I kept looking at each other during the tour and never stopped saying, "this was such a great idea!!" The foods we tasted were delicious, and we kept mental notes of where we wanted to go back to eat the next time we are in the city. Cindy, our tour guide, was fantastic. It was clear she has a passion for the history and architecture of Greenwich Village. Learning about where we were was equally enjoyable. I've told all my friends at home about this and we will most definitely be back!!! Thank You--the girls from Connecticut... |

Great way to spend an afternoon!

| We did the Greenwich Village tour three days ago with our two children ages 9 and 11. Our tour guide definately made the tour for us. We all enjoyed her stories about the area as much as the food tasting! |

Lovely!

| Our tour was absolutely lovely! To get a glimpse of Greenwich village through the eyes of a local person instead of the one from a tourist guide made all the difference. To be given the history of the area and the tasty gems was just wonderful. It didn’t hurt either that the weather gods gave us a sunny warm 60 degree November day, or that the tour guide was the best, just like she said :). It seemed like the whole neighbourhood was out strolling, and we got to be a part of that. |
