We were both highly pleased and have already recommended the tour to friends and family. Our tour guide (Cerita-not sure of spelling) was excellent. She was very exuberant and very knowledgeable. The food places were all excellent and the people were very friendly and accommodating. Even though we have been to the village many times, I certainly learned a lot of interesting facts. I am looking forward to going back and trying some of the restaurants out that were recommended. One thing that greatly impressed me was the fact that the tour director stayed behind to take care of 2 women who had travel difficulties that were beyond their control. He made sure that they were able to participate as much as possible.

couple looking to see different parts of ny not the normal tourist

Cindy was fabulous. The food was yummy and we learned a lot about ny, the development and changes in the neighborhood. Cindy was fun, interesting, organized, and knowledgeable. We also took another food tour from one of your competetiors ($95.00 per person) and it was lousy, disorganized, etc. I have already recommended you to everyone I've talked to since I've been home.

We really enjoyed the tasting tour. We even went back to one of the restaurants that we toured. I appreciated the verbal and written material that was given to us. After the tour, I will definitely go back to Greenwich Village on my next trip to New York.

My adult daughter and I went on the tour and found it very helpful for not feeling so "lost" in Greenwich Village. We will now be able to go back into the area with friends and eat at one of many unique establishments, all with good food. The history and architectural information was also interesting. Our guide was bubbly, friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend the tour for people trying to feel more comfortable in the big city!

great tour! i enjoyed it very much. my only suggestion would be to have a larger serving served during the lunch hour. (and have it be nicer than pizza).

Our guide Rebecca really made the experience probably the best touristy thing we did in NYC. She was very knowledgeable as well as gracious. I would recommend this activity to anyone visiting the city for the first time (or even the second or third time).

Family looking for something different

This was our second tour. I would have never even known Chelsea Market was there, let alone all the unique things to see in the building. I am a New Yorker who moved to Central Connecticut and love to see new things in NY. My son (6) went with us and though it is really not geared to young children, he had a great time and loved all the tastings! Our guide was very nice to him and would include him on whatever she could (he was the only small child). We also had a 14 year old niece who really liked it. The history is amazing and the area is great. I can't wait to go back and shop some more! I only wish their were more tours to go on!

Out-of-town couple on long weekend
Sat, Jul 17, 04   11:00 AM Anonymous Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified
My husband and I absolutely loved the Greenwich Village Food and Culture Tour- we both think it was the best thing we did on our long weekend in NYC. The guide (Eric) was knowledgeable and personable and the food was incredible. The things we found out about Greenwich Village's history and what it's like to live there now were fascinating. We went back later and ate at several of the tour stops and the food was exactly as described on the tour. One gentleman on the tour was taking it for the third time! We'll definitely do the Chelsea tour on our next visit to New York. Believe me, this was money well spent and good value for the money!

girls' weekend - mom and sisters

I would highly recommend this activity to anyone and I have been telling anyone who will listen. I've done both tours now with tourguide Cindy and she is fabulous. The history that she shares along with the great food would be hard to surpass. I just can't say enough great things about this tour. It was enjoyable for everyone - even the young boy in our group. All of the vendors in the Chelsea Market were very freindly as well. I had no idea all these changes were happing in that area. We will return many times I'm sure!

This tour was my favorite part of my New York trip! Eric was a fabulous guide and really gave us a feel for the neighborhood. The combination of history and taste testing was a wonderful mix. I really wanted to come back and spend more time in Greenwich as a result of the tour. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone!
