| Our tour guide was wonderful, informative, well spoken and knowledgeable. There was more than enough food for the afternoon; lunch is taken care of on this tour. All of the selections were great. My only regret is that we didn't have time to browse or shop during the tour and had to return later on. I will know in the future to allow myself time for shopping. Well worth every penny. | ||||||

| Had a wonderful afternoon with Diane. We had a lot of food during the course of the day that the only thing we had for dinner was a little sushi from The Lobster Place before heading back to New Jersey. I would totally recommend it to everyone. | ||||||

| I took my Dad on this tour as a birthday gift to him. We both really enjoyed it. We LOVE food and the tastings were absolutely delicious. We were introduced to so many wonderful under-the-radar restaurants and specialty food stores that I will definitely be returning to. As a life-long Brooklyn resident, I love learning about the history of this amazing city and our tour guide Marie was a wealth of information--really fantastic, energetic, and super funny! I work in Student Affairs at a university and I am planning on booking a group tour for students with Foods of NY. Thank you!!! | ||||||

| I picked this tour for my family weekend get-together after already doing this with friends 3 years ago. I had Darrell both times as tour guide and he was great! We all just loved the tour and will be back for another next year! | ||||||

Not what we had hoped

| A friend of mine who is very picky and discerning recommended the food tour with rave reviews so we went in with high expectations and were unfortunately not terribly impressed. The guide we had seemed a bit flighty and not totally sure of her facts; we thought it was rather bizarre to be given one paper napkin (while standing in the rain) that we would need to hold onto for the entire 3 hours; we didn't like that the tastings were mostly carbs and contained rice in multiple occasions; and we had hoped to learn more about the architecture as well as to go into the various places we were being shown instead of just walking by. Lastly, we would have liked to have had some interaction with the chefs or owners of each restaurant/shop, however briefly. All in all, it was a disappointment. My brother lives in the neighborhood and my sister and mother were in from Chicago and Long Boat Key respectively. A friend who lives in Long Island joined us and I was visiting from Boston. | ||||||

| We took this tour having already done Greenich Village and SoHo in the past but with no idea of the Chelsea Area or the Meat Packing districts. We had an outstanding guide, Daryl. Our group had never been in this area. We loved the history and the tastings. We were very impressed. Dinner that evening became Postos. An additional place our guide brought us. We ordered the tasting dinner. We also returned to the Chelsea Market after the tour and shopped. Who would have believed, this is the future fashion area. The designers are moving in!!!! Highly recommend this tour. | ||||||

| Cindy was our guide and truly was engaged, educated, and enthusiastic on the subject matter. My wife and I without hesitation would recommend the tour and Cindy to anyone visiting New York. Actually in two short days we have already made this recommendation to three other couples | ||||||

| I brought my friend, Gregory, for his birthday on this tour after having a wonderful experience on a previous Greenwich/Soho tour, which I enjoyed thoroughly. I didn't think it was going to be as good - didn't seem possible, but I am happy to report it was even better , largely due to our guide, Cindy, who is absolutely delightfut. We paln on going on the meat district tour for my birthday and will be seeking her out specifically. I have shared your websit with numerous friiends so others can enjoy. Thank you!!, Jean Siry | ||||||

| Our tour guide Suzie was extremely knowledgeable about the different food locations and tastings, as well as the Central Greenwich Village area. Her personal experience within the territory and with the food was evident. My wife and I felt that the tour provided excellent value for the price. The volume of food was more than expected and Suzie's vignettes covering some of the sites (Minetta Lane, Washington Sq. Park, Cafe Wa) were very informative. Absolutely no complaints. | ||||||

| We had four days in NYC and this tour had been recommended to us. MAKE SURE YOU DO IT even if it means you miss some of the other more traditional sightseeing. Walking around Greenwich Village will give you a sense of the real New York and the restaurants that real New Yorkers rate. We tasted some fantastic food, met some of the chefs and laughed all the way round with our tour guide who had a great sense of humour. Our tour guide was Sephra (a trained pastry chef) so was more food focused that history and acrhitecture but that suited us fine! | ||||||

Great variety - even for vegetarians!

| Good variety of food. Great restaurants - we plan on going back to most of them. What was fantastic is hearing the owners/chefs of restaurant and speak and answering questions. More than enough food provided on the tour - but it was all wonderful. There were vegetarians in our group that were really well catered for - all places provided equal (or better!) alternatives - even at the butcher. It was great having the break in the middle with lots of walking. Wonderful history of the area - and the added movie and television references just added to the tour. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and very helpful. The tour also oriented us in a very unfamiliar area. The bakery was a wonderful way to end the tour(probably the best stop!) - we remained behind for coffee. Highly recommended - a must if visiting New York. | ||||||
