I highly recommend this activity. I had never been to Greenwich Village and the tour was a great introduction. Our guide was great, not just with the food and restaurants, but also the neighborhood and real estate.

The Greenwich Village Food and Culture Tour was, by far, one of the most awesome tours we have taken in the city. Not only was the food terrific but we now know that Greenwich Village is a charming neighborhood to explore. Our tour guide, Cindy, made the 3 hour tour so much fun. We can't wait to return to try the Chelsea Tour!

Unfortunately, we never took the tour because after several emails from the tour organizer who was trying to change the time of the tour, a tour guide was not available and the tour was cancelled. Our money was refunded. I was very disappointed since I had made plans for this tour well in advance. At the last minute, I had to make other plans for our day in the City. I found this to be very unprofessional.

Besides revisiting streets and a neighborhood I haven't been at for more than a decade. I enjoyed learning some new trivia about the Village and it's architecture from our tourguide Cindy who was a lot of fun to be with. The food we tasted were delicious, and our group was very much welcomed into each one of the establisments by it's proprietor. I can't wait to do another tour!

Cindy...What fun she was. Energetic, informed, enthusiastic, and cared about her group. Knew everyone in the village. Obvious that she loved the people, food, and history. All the food sampled was so different and yummy. Her knowledge of architecture was so appreciated. Loved Chumley's speak-easy. Would recommend it to all who visit or live in NYC. Thank you!

Great tour and wonderful guide. The only sad thing about this tour is that we didn't take it on our first day in NY.

It was very good. The historical observations of the neighborhood were especially interesting. I hope to go back to Greenwich Village on my next trip and try the restaurants that were recommended.

Definately be hungry when you arrive. Make sure this is one of the first things you do on your tripto new york because guaranteed you'll want to come back to some of the restaurants and bars by yourselves.

second vacation in the city looking to explore the neighbourhoods

Our guide, Susan, was extremely knowledgable not only about the Village and all it has to offer, but the city as a whole. I'd recommend this tour be taken at the beginning of a vacation in the city, as I took it at the end and was unable to visit any of the cafes, bars and restaurants recommended to us. Still, it's an excuse to plan another trip! This tour proved to me that there's more to NYC then Midtown and the big sites which so many tourists stick to. I'd certainly recommend this tour to visitors, although I think it may be unsuitable for children.

My girlfriend and I went on this tour as a shared Birthday present for each other. Both of us are from New York. Just when you think you know everything about the city, you don’t. I truly enjoyed this present. It was a beautiful picture perfect day, the day after the 3rd year Anniversary of 9/11 so the city was still in a somber mood from the previous day. Our guide Michael was the perfect person to cheer us up. His 20+ years living in the city and his wealth of knowledge about the City truly made him passionate about his job. His attention to detail about the neighborhood surpassed even my trivial pursuit knowledge of Greenwich Village. I visited the oldest Speakeasy in NYC and I got to see the official “Friends” building. We visited 7 restaurants on the walking tour. Each tasting was better than the next. Don’t even think about eating afterward, I was beyond stuffed after all the tastings. I tasted everything from pastries to rice balls to chocolate to falafel. Wear comfy shoes and bring a hearty appetite. This tour was truly essence of what New York is all about.

Good blend of talk and food. The guide seemed to know everyone in the area -- added to the very at-home feel of the event. My mom loved it! -- She wants to take everyone on this tour.
