I thought this was an amazing tour, both from a culinary and historical perspective. Our guide was Cindy, and I highly recommend requesting her services, as she was very knowledgeable, charming, and funny. |

It was wonderful. The guide was friendly and very knowledgeable about the history and architecture of the area as well as the restaurants, and the pace of the tour was relaxed. I would definitely recommend it. Oh yes, and the food was great too! |

My friend was visiting from Paris and really wanted to see "the Village." We loved this tour so much and she kept saying how brilliant this sort of tour would be in Paris too! I'm now signing up my whole family for a tour when they come to visit. Plus, we were stuffed at the end of it. 36 bucks is a steal. |

My brother described it as his favorite activity while he was here. He fell in love with the neighborhood, its history, and, of course, its food. As a local, I enjoyed becoming more familiar with a different area of the city. We were both so convinced by the tour that we returned to the Village the next day for an Italian dinner at Palma and a beer at Chumley's.
Note: Jennie was fabulous, informative, and fun. |

We have visited New York many times but never knew very much about the Village. The tour was wonderful, it has opened up another whole section of the city to us which we will surely visit again in the future. Mike , our guide was very friendly and knowledgable, we could of listened to him for many more hours on end. We are looking forward to signing up for another of the tasting tours. |

We had a wonderful time listening to our guide, Michael, explain the sites, history and people that make up Greewich Village. The food and smells of the shops and earteries we went to were fabulous.
This was the highlight of our NYC trip |
