Value added highlight of our visit to NYC

| This was a delightful event in our four-day visit to NYC. The weather was perfect. The walk was energizing and healthy. The stops along the way were well planned and fit together extremely well. The food was delicious and very authentic. And last but certainly NOT least the tour guide, Michael, was definitely the best part of the tour. He was very knowledgeable, very polite, well known by everyone we met - a complete gentleman in every sense of the term!! I have already recommended this tour to everyone that I have spoken with since. | ||||||

| This walking tour is part food, part culture and part history. Our tour guide was insightful, knowledgable and entertaining, and the food tastings were wonderful. Highly recommended. | ||||||

| The places we stopped and the the tastings were exceptional. I loved getting to find some of the unique places in Greenwich - found so much more than I could have on my own. I thought Susan lacked a little bit of a connection with her information and the tour guests. She didn't seem particularly enthusiastic or engaged, but the stops were so fabulous, it didn't really detract from my experience. | ||||||

| A great combination of food sampling and history of the neigborhood and the surrounding area. I'd reccomend that you take the tour on your first day in the city so that you have as much time as possible to enjoy all the fabulous restaurants. | ||||||

| We took the three-hour walking/tasting tour of Greenwich Village based on the suggestion of some friends in the large (200+) group of us from Dallas, rather unsure of what to expect. We were quite enthusiastically greeted by Mr. Curt Upton, who gave a very enjoyable tour. Curt was knowledgeable about the culture, history and customs of Greenwich Village as well as being very well informed about each food location that we visited. But beyond his script, Curt had worked at a restaurant in this area and had lived close by, so he knew many of the employees and locations on a more personal basis. Curt was friendly and was able to answer the many varied questions asked during the tour. He did a great job of keeping us on schedule and finished up right on time. We highly recommend this tour to anyone who enjoys good food and the fascinating history of this beautiful part of Manhattan! | ||||||

Great Food - So So Neighborhood

| The Chelsea Market is a great location and it would have been nice to have a tour of some of the production facilities of NY1, Food Network, or Oxygen. It was hard to get back from the final destination to get back to the Market at the end of the tour. The Meat packing district is changing quickly, but was not really the reason we wanted to take the tour. Finally, it would have been nice to have one true entree served as part of the tour. The soups and appetizers were great, but even as small entree would have added/complemented the food served greatly. The tour was good and overall I would recommend it to my friends. | ||||||

| My husband & I were looking for something different than the typical tour as we have been to the city a number of times. We really enjoyed the knowledge of the history of the Chelsea/Meatpacking district that our tour guide (Cindy) had to offer us. Seeing a part of the city that is in such a state of change felt like we were watching history happen before our eyes! The food tastings were delicious and provided a nice variety - afterwards we went back to purchase some more to take back home! Our only complaint was that we didn't get the coupons in our packet as we had been promised. We definitely would recommend this tour to other people! | ||||||

Excellent overview of the Village

| I enjoyed the combination of food, cultural and architectural details. Curt (our tour guide) was enthusiastic and entertaining. You can tell he enjoys the area himself. I learned alot about the Village, loved tasting the food (even trying olives again!), and completely enjoyed the tour. On our next trip to New York, I feel I could go back to the area and confidently enjoy a great afternoon or evening. I'll try their other tours next time. | ||||||

| Our group (10 of us came together) had a great time. The history, information, (plus the inside scoop on stars and their bodyguards) that we learned on the tour was fun and educational, and the food...mercy! We had to go back to two of the stops immediately after the tour to stock up for the trip home. We're already planning to take the other tasting tour on our next visit. Great value for the money! | ||||||

| What luck! Searching the Internet and finding such an exceptional tour group. Cindy (tour leader) was so exceptional - everything you'd want in a guide. The tour stops were fun, interesting and delicious. A wonderful mix of food, history and a look the the future development of the area. Keep up the great work. | ||||||

| We are from Philadelphia. Our tour was fanatastic. We were a group of four. Myself and my wife and my sister and her husband. We, my wife and I, have always gone to NYC and spent most of our time in midtown...occassionally venturing into the village or other areas for dinner. But always at the well known trendy famous chef restaurants.We will never take a trip to NYC without spending quality time in the village! My sister and her husband lived in Chelsea for 3 + years and were also extremely pleased with the tour and in fact learned things that they never knew! Our guide, Jenny, was excellent. She knows her neighborhood and was pleasant, informative and enthusiastic. She was an encyclopedia of knowledge and the most pleasant hostess. I would and have already recommended this tour to friends. | ||||||
