excellent tour
Tue, Jun 21, 05   11:00 AM vickicollins Female 20-29 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Really worth doing. Tour guide was fun and knowledgable, and the tour length was about right. We learnt lots of things about Greenwich village which we wouldn't have found out otherwise, and the food tastings were great. Having the bottled water supplied was a nice and essential touch. We certainly plan to re-visit some of the places visited and would certainly want to do the other food tasting tour of Chelsea. A real find and great value for money!

Everyone should take this tour!
Sun, Nov 13, 05   11:00 AM vickibmeyer Female 50-59 Combination Other
Our group was a combination of one New Yorker and three visitors. The New Yorker who lives 20 minutes away from Greenwich Village was delighted to find out about some new places to visit. We all were pleasantly surprised at the full-sized samplings and the quality of the food we sampled. It was a good variety and very delicious. Our group also enjoyed learning some of the history of the area. Barrie was a great tour guide. She was well-informed and kept us moving, but she also let us savor the food samples and the sights of the area. Some of our group went back the next day to explore and enjoy some more food. I will recommend this tour to everyone I know who will visit New York City. Thanks for a great time. Vicki Meyer Pflugerville, Texas

A blast !
Sat, Sep 6, 08   11:00 AM vickiappel Female 50-59 Local Family Without Children
This is the second time my husband and I went on a food tour. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to taste great food, learn some history, see the city sights and enjoy some laughs. Our tour guide, Kurt, made us laugh the entire time while he gave us insight to the going ons of the marketplace. If you are looking for an amazing time to spend with either friends or family and want to do something a little bit different ......this is it. The food was delicious and we got to view the inside of restaurants that we normally would never go into. I can't say enough good things about this fun filled day. Been on two Zerve tour and looking forward to booking another.

Outstanding guide and introduction to neighborhood
Sat, May 31, 08   12:00 PM vickiak Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Our guide, Raheen (sp?) was extremely knowlegeable about the neighborhood and the food. The best way to be introduced to an area. We learned so much more than about restaurants and food--history, culture, people. Be prepared to do a bit of walking, a good 3 hours plus. We went back to at least 3 places we visited.

Great orientation to the Village and NYC
Sun, Sep 18, 05   11:00 AM vicbehr Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
If you have never been to NY, this is a great tour to participate in on the first of second day of your arrival. Because, although the tour is limited to the center of the Greenwich Village neighborhood, it provides a point of reference in terms of the history of NY in general, for example the age of the City (especially compared to the west coast) and how neighborhoods and culture changed over the years. The tour includes some information about the the architecture of the buildings in the neighborhood -- this made me more aware of the City's architecture in general which led me to take notice of the beautiful old buildings I passed when touring other parts of the City. If you are into food and restaurants, the list of restaurants that you are provided with as well and the tour of some selected restaurants is great information to have at the beginning of your trip. This way you will have time to come back and enjoy the wonderful restaurants in the Village.

Wonderful, Yummy, and Informative!
Fri, Feb 24, 06   12:00 PM vicb6273 Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
My daugher-in-law and I were in the city for a "girl's" trip and enjoyed this tour very much. Curt, our tour guide was very informative and very entertaining. All of the stops provided us with great food and interesting New Yorkers to tell us about their products. We were lucky enough to meet Sarabeth on our tour and did go to one of her restaurants the next day. We also enjoyed the "walk-thru" of the B & B. I would highly recommend this tour.

Chelsea Market/meat packing district
Sat, Jun 6  11:00 AM VFreeman1 Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
This tour was lots of fun. Our guide, Kirk, was funny and interesting. I've been to both places before but didn't know most of the info he imparted. The food we sampled was great and by the end I was stuffed and unable to eat any more. Plus I now have a list of new places to eat and drink, places to stay, shop, etc. I was sad when the tour was over -- it went by fast although it lasted three hours. I would definitely do this again and also want to do the other tours.

an Introduction to Inside Scoop on GV Culture
Wed, Jul 20, 05   11:00 AM vforbes Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
Our group consisted of only eight persons which allowed for a more intimate interaction when traveling through the streets of Greenwich Village. Although we only covered about a ten block radius of space we learned much about the current and historical happenings in the area. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in getting to know new york.

Great for foodies and historians.
Sat, Aug 5, 06   11:00 AM ves504 Female 40-49 Local Group of Friends
My friend and I chose to do this activity as a part of our weekend in the city to celebrate our 40th birthdays. We were very happy with the decision. It exceeded my expectations. The food was great as well as the tips on restaurants and shops. We also enjoyed the historical facts given on Greenwich Village. I will definately make Greenwich Village neighborhoods a stop on my next NYC visit.

Good food, alot of fun, great tour guide
Wed, Jul 5, 06   11:00 AM Veronicamb Female 40-49 Local Group of Friends
As a group of local individuals, it was great to explore the various restaurants and shops on the tour. We will definitely go back to Joe's Pizza, Rocco's and Bruno's pastries, Faicco's (excellent rice balls), and many of the other stops.

Cindy is the BEST!
Tue, Jul 17, 07   11:30 AM veronica3205 Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
My husband and I recently went on the food tour with Cindy and we had such a great time! My husband is a pretty picky eater, but tried everything that we were given. The food was great, the history of the city was great, but even better was our tour guide Cindy. She made things so interesting and it was quite obvious that she is very familiar with the area and people in the village. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone. This was my husband and I's 6th time to NYC and this is one of the best tours we have taken. Tell Cindy that Veronica and David from Iowa really appreciated the tour!!

perfect date
Sun, Feb 25, 07   11:30 AM verona725 Female 20-29 Combination Couple on a Date
i can't think of a better way to go through chelsea market and the neighboring meatpacking district. our guide kurt was witty and energetic and all his recommendations were great. the food was delicious and plentiful and although we'd been through chelsea market on our own numerous times before, the tour introduced us to so much more. i highly recommend this for anyone, but for me, it was a perfect date activity.

My wife and I enjoyed the tour very much. We have visited NYC a few times before, but never got to see Greenwich Village. The tour was very interesting and informative. The tour guide was great. The food was great.
