Foods of New York Tours

We had a fantastic tour guide (couldn't get any better) for this lovely tour of Chelsea market and Meatpacking district. He was very knowledgeable of the building / area / and location. We sampled some good food and got great history on the tour. This was my fathers day present to my dad - I took him and my mom -and they both loved it. We would do another tour again.

This was an excellent tour - loved hearing about the history of the area. Bob was very knowledgeable and fun to listen to. The food was great - I was stuffed long before the tour was over!! I highly recommend this tour!!!

This was our second food tour with Zerve. We had as much fun this time as we did on our first tour. Our guide, Bob, was very knowledgable and delightful and was able to answer any questions asked. The food and vendors were equally as pleasant. All in all it was a wonderful way to spend a Sunday afternoon and to celebrate a birthday.

We were a group of 6 friends from NJ. This tour was recommended to me by a business associate who raved about it so we decided to take it. Right from the start, our tour guide Bert welcomed us with his friendly personality and humor. I have to say he "made" the tour fun & interesting! HIs knowledge base was tremendous regarding the area, the history, and the food. Amazing. We would absolutely take more tours and try to request him as our guide. The food tastings were different and delicious, the walking was at a very relaxed pace, and the small tour group size made it very personal and interactive. I speak for all the members of our group when I say we totally enjoyed it. Each of us wanted to share our praise of Bert, but this one group review will have to speak for all of us. We highly recommend this tour.

First, our guide was incredible. Very knowledgable and very personable. I really think he made the tour such a success. Great tour, loved the restaurants, and area. Would do this again and definitely recommend to others. I'd love to go back and do another tour and of course, get to all the great places we visited. My favorite area of NYC.

Susan was an excellent guide, but the stretch of walking through the Washington Square park was long and slow. Also this tour seems to focus more on the food and less on the history than the Chelsea/Meatpacking tour, which has been our favorite of all the food walking tours we've done in the past five years.

This is our second tour, my husband and I took the Original Greenwich Village last May. This time we included 8 additional family members (18 to 65) and we had a great time. The quality, quantity and diversity of the food selection were excellent with the added bonus of more indoor sit down tasting than the previous tour, which was appreciated since the day was very hot. Our guide Dianna was very knowledgeable about the history, culture, architecture and past and present residents of the neighborhood. We would do this tour again and look forward to doing the other tours offered by this company.

Enjoyed this from beginning to end. Bert was our guide and he was the best. I am from California and my daughter lives and works in New York. We both thought it was a great value. Lots of locals on our tour and they even learned a lot. Kudos!

All four in our party agreed that this food and culture tour was a fantastic opportunity to learn about a wide array of historical and architectural facts pertaining to this area while sampling an excellent variety of delicious ethnic gastronomic delights. The tour guide provided a perfect blend of education, practical tips, and humor based upon her personal experiences and academic background. I have already recommended this tour to friends and will continue to sing its praises in the future. We look forward to taking other tours with this company.

The food choices were delicious, and the portions at each establishment we more than ample and no lunch was needed afterward. Wear comfortable shoes and be prepared for a really fun way to spend a few hours in Manhattan!

We really enjoyed our tour, both the food and getting a sense of the history of this part of the Village. Our guide was very knowledgeable, had a great rapport with the chefs, did a good job of accommodating the particular needs of our group, and was engaging and enthusiastic. We ate a ton of great food as well!

We booked this tour after hearing about it from another friend and could not have been more pleased with our decision! We were travelling as a group of 6 friends and had so much fun. Our tour guide, Carrie Ann, was amazing and very knowledgable about the Greenwhich Village area. We loved hearing about the history of the area and the restaurants/stores in the vicinity and of course enjoyed sampling the food at each of the stops. The variety was great and the food was tasty. Our only complaint was that there was a couple in our group who were smokers and we didn't enjoy having cigarette smoke wafting through the air around us. We would recommend offering some tours as "non-smoking" so people would have the option of a smoke-free tour. Thanks for the great day!!

A wonderful day of learning about the Meat Market past and present. Beatiful park, never new existed and great shopping in the Chelsea Market. I brought home lots of goodies. I want to do all the tours. My friends and I had a great unforgettable day.

I loved every minute of the tour - I was there with a group of people from an organization that I volunteer with called the All Stars Project. I was tasked with providing them with a developmental experience. Needless to say that they had an awesome time, and I did also. Our guide Cindy was brilliant and the food was outstanding! Additionally, the factual history that we learned about the Chelsea Meat Packing area and the Highline was very interesting. I have been talking about it with everyone that is willing to listen. I will recommend it to others.

I went on this tour because I love to eat and cook and I wanted to learn more about the Greenwich area. It was worth every penny. Our guide was extremely knowledgable and entertaining, she really knew her stuff! The variety of food was fantastic and there was definitely enough. I ended up buying a cookie cookbook during the tour and also making a brunch reservation at one of the restaurants. I will recommend this tour to everyone I know is going to Manhattan, and I would not hesitate to go on another tour with this company after this experience.
