| Next time in New York we will spend a considerable amount of time exploring the Village on our own. I'm sure we will use the recommendations of restaraunts and food specialty shops. Our guide, Mike, was well prepared, engaging, and timely. |

| I think that the balance of tastings is the one area that could use improvement. I agree with previous posters that this tour is heavy on the cheese/bread/pizza, and it would also be nice to get a beverage somewhere along the way - one water bottle wasn't nearly enough on a hot day. Loved the olive oil, chocolate chip cookies, and arrancino. The Thai dumplings were only OK. However Mike was informative and entertaining, carefully treading the fine line between energetic/enthusiastic and cheesy. I learned a lot, and enjoyed seeing a neighborhood in such depth. |

| My husband & I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Our guide was great & we loved all the eateries that we went to. We thought the whole tour was very well presented & we were made very welcome at all the places we attended.
Learning about the history of Greenwich village was fabulous too.
Would thoroughly reccommend the tour. |

| Michael did a WONDERFUL job! It just wouldn't have been the same or as effective with any other guide. He's very articulate and passionate about his village. I wouldn't change a thing about our tour except maybe we'd have kept him for the rest of the day! Please let him know how much we enjoyed his tour.

| 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. |
