| This was my husband's and mine first trip to Greenwich Village. We had a great mix of people (13 + Ed our guide). Ed did a great job in introducing us to the village with a little bit of history as well as the food tasting. Each shop that we stopped at was a fine choice. Ed also showed us around the neighborhood with more info about a variety of restaurants that we didn't get a taste at or places that we might want to visit at a later date. Afterwards we did go back into a few of the stores to do some shopping and talk with the proprietors/and clerks. It truly was a fun time as well as informative. |

| Michael was a very knowledgable guide with a fun personality. He portrayed his knowledge with great enthuisiasm making the tour a very enjoyable experience. We learnt a lot about the local cuisine and the cultures within Greenwich Village. It is a "must do" activity in New York. |

| The tour was great, doing three things.
- tastes of very different shops and restaurants, enough food to skip lunch!
- some really interesting cultural and architectural history of Greenwich Village
- the opportunity to check out places to come back to - many with money off coupons
Our tour guide was Barri who was excellent - friendly and knowledgeable.
The whole thing is highly recommended |

| This was my third time taking the food and walking tour around Greenwich Village. the food was amazing and I learn more and more about that area everytime I take the tour! You get a history lesson out of it. I take friends with me who have never been on the tour, They all love it! I've taken the tour 3 times in the past 4 years. I love it and I highly recommend it! Thanks!

| This is a great way to learn about a neighborhood, and to find some good restaurants in the area. Our tour guide Michael was very knowledgeable and friendly, and has lived in the Greenwich area for over 20 years - a wonderful ambassador for the area. All the food samples were delicious and there was a nice variety of offerings, including yummy sweets (the cannoli was a perfect way to end the tour).
Our daughter lives in NYC and also thought the tour was great! We went back on a different night and ate at Palmas. The meal was delicious, reasonably priced, and we were able to enjoy our meal in their delightful garden area. |

A "must-see" for any visitor!

| New York is one of the most populous cities in the entire world. After having visited only a couple of times before, I've known very little of what I would consider, the smaller, more intimate locations such as Greenwich Village.
Not only did the tour really bring home the idea of "the corner bakery" and "the mom-and-pop pizza joint." But the tour also demonstrated how the allure, the magnificence & the quality of food, and the history of Greenwhich Village draws people to live, visit or dine from all over the country - not only New York.
Our guide was charismatic, witty and extremely knowledgeable. Every corner brought fascinating facts and stories or a tasty treat.
I am extremely happy to have been a part of the tour and I am sure to return to the area in the future! Thanks for making our weekend even more memorable! |

| We are a mother/daughter from MN. Our tour guide was Cindi and she was fabulous, very fun and good historical information. The food tasting was fun and we enjoyed the variety of places we went to. At one point we were so involved in the food at one shop that we realized we lost the tour, however, Cindi came to our rescue. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone and even more definitely reccommend any tour with Cindi. Greenwich is a place you don't want to miss! |

great day learning and eating!

| Heather our tour guide was wonderful and energetic!! (Gave her alot of credit because it was about 98 degrees and very humid and she never slowed down one bit!) She gave us lots of information that was not only interesting, but helpful. I would highly recommend this tour to others. The food was very good too! |
