| We wanted to do something fun for our friend's birthday. The three of us are all relatively new to New York City and wanted to learn more about our city. We love to find new places to eat and explore, so I signed us up for the Greenwich Village tour. We were delighted with our day. It was fun to discover new "hidden treasures" on the streets that we thought we knew. We learned so much about the culture and vibe of the neighborhood with a guide who not only lives in the neighborhood but also seemed to know everyone we passed. That was an added bonus! We can't wait to go back to the neighborhood to dine, listen to music and shop. Great job!! We are eager to try the other tours you offer. |

| I live about an hour away from NYC but have always wanted to learn more about the different parts of the city. Greenwich Village is so charming-hard to believe all the hustle and bustle is so close by. There are lots of tree lined streets and you really get the feel of a neighborhood. My friends and I loved this tour. I had it bookmarked for a year-why did I wait so long? The food was delicious-and the walk was very doable. Barri was fun and full of facts about the area. We had a diverse group-people from Austrailia-people from New Jersey. Everyone chats and we had a good time. I highly recommend it. Our weather could not have been better. I will definitly do other tours from this company. |

| I had prevously gone on this tour and had enjoyed the history of the area and the tour so much that I brought my sister along this year.
We both enjoyed the tour and the tastings very much. Tour was conducted at a nice pace and the tour guide was very knowledgable about the area. |

| Cindy took us on a culinary adventure through Greenwich Village. It was one of the best walking tours I've done anywhere. She was delightful - fun, enthusiastic and knowledgeable.

| Our guide was friendly, upbeat and really knew the neighborhood since she was a resident. My wife and I loved the food, but almost equally enjoyed getting to better know a small piece of the Village. We can't wait to bring our boys and/ or try another tour with this company. |

| This tour was outstanding! Our guide was not only knowledgable but engaging and entertaining as well. He was only one of the components that made this such a fun tour. The food was outstanding, the stores were unique, the cultural history of the Village was colorful and the actual walk was quite enjoyable. What a great way to spend an afternoon! |

| My husband and I really enjoyed this tour, and it inspired us to go back to the area a few days later to revisit some of the places recommended. Our tour leader Kurt was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. A great experience, one of the highlights of our holiday. |

| The tour was my favorite part of the vacation. As a complete foodie, I felt so much more in the know. When I tasted the pizza in mid-town, I missed Joe and his use of San Marzano tomatoes - what a difference. My gallon jug of olive oil from Costco now offends me, and I am about to place a LARGE order for the really good stuff; I hope the sale is still happening or I might be devastated. I loved the small restaurants we toured; particularly, the one with the house in back - so cool. Our guide was UNBELIEVABLE; I would like to see the whole city with him. A couple of things that I would have loved might have been a taste of more hard to find cheeses - most of what we had was also available in Memphis. Best chocolate chip cookie I have ever had; and I make a really great cookie. I would have liked a taste of something a bit more unusual than what we had at the Thai restaurant; for example, the canolli was so perfect at Rocco's because know one else I know makes them that fresh and crisp; in contrast, the spring roll was great just not beyond what I am able to get in Memphis. What I liked best about the tour was the uniqueness of certain foods. I can't wait to return and take a tour every day. |
