Our tour guide Michael was excellent. You could tell he loved his neighborhood and certainly knew the history of the village. All day people would call out his name, he appeared to be involved in his community. My sister and I took our Mom for mother's day and she was amazed - since she had grown up in the city and had now idea that the village was such a beautiful area.

Local Introduction to a Hidden Treasure
Sat, May 7, 05   11:30 AM tborlawsky Female 20-29 Local Group of Friends
As residents of the UWS, my friends and I had never ventured to Chelsea and had no idea what it had to offer. Not only did we get a chance to enjoy some great food, we also learned about the neighborhood and are eager to go back to the Market again soon. Our guide was excellent and very knowledgable of the food and culture!

This was an excellent tour. Two of us went and thoroughly enjoyed the food and information provided by the guide concerning the market history and local neighborhood. We would definitely join a similar tour of another NYC neighborhood.

Excellent...we loved every minute of it.
Fri, May 6, 05   12:00 PM camardello Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
This tour was recommended to me by a friend who heard I was going to New York on a bus trip. I have been to NYC many many times, but never knew about this tour. I suggested it to my 2 friends who I was going on the bus tour with & they, too, had been to NYC many many times & so we all decided it would be something different to do than the usual "tourist" type things. We were right! This was an excellent choice & all of us agreed it was well worth it. We are recommending it to everyone. We also agreed that our tour guide, Todd, made this event the success that it was. He was excellent, enthusiastic, knowledgeable & personable. He was great. We even asked if we could request him if we decided to do it again or if we had friends who would be doing this. Anyway, great choice. We are now thinking to do the other food tour the next time. Thank you & hang on to Todd. He's worth it.

Yummy food and interesting historical tidbits
Fri, May 6, 05   11:00 AM Sangster Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
I loved the food tour! The combination of eating yummy food, learning historical tidbits about Greenwich Village and exploring restaurants that are off the beaten track was wonderful. Our guide was well informed and enthusiastic. It was obvious that she was well known and loved in the neighborhood. My husband and I ate at a different restaurant from the tour each night for the rest of our trip. I've already recommended the tour to friends who were headed to NYC. I wish there was something like this in all big cities.

Very worthwhile, more for the cultural history
Fri, May 6, 05   11:00 AM darciefunk Female 30-39 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
The tour was very worthwhile, particularly from the perspective of learning about the areas cultural history. The guide had a strong knowledge of where to eat and purchase ingredients, however didn't have a particuarly good knowledge of the food itself or preparation methods. This set us up for our stay in the Village and was very worthwhile.

My friends and I had a wonderful time. Cindy our animator was really terrific (funny and very informational). It made me to appreciate Greenwich Village a whole lot more. Choices of restaurant and food was excellent. We went to the Fish and Surya restaurant because of your recommandation and truly enjoyed it. A big thank you to Cindy and the organisation. France from Montréal.

ENJOYED THE CULTURAL ASPECT OF THE TOUR
Fri, May 6, 05   11:00 AM MADMADDY Female Unspecified Combination Unspecified
We booked this tour on a whim and really enjoyed it. We liked all the cultural tidbits our tour guide related with enthusiasm. We were a little disappointed with the amount of food we got to taste. It was all delicious but we thought we would be trying more things than what we got. After the tour was over , we went hunting for a place to eat, which of course was one of the places we tried on the tour. We will definitely try the Chelsea Market tour next.

So good, we did them both!
Fri, May 6, 05   10:30 AM colinmckay Male 50-59 International Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
After so enjoying the tour of Greenwich with Todd, we set out to do the Chelsea Market tour as well. We enjoyed them both thoroughly: the food, the guides, and the company of other walkers. We think they are exceelent value and would recommend them to anyone visiting or living in New York. Tell Todd that the reason there was another couple at Chumleys (they said they found it on the internet) might be that it is also featured in the Lonely Planet City Guide of New York (2004 edition), in their walking tour of Greenwich.

What the tour encompassed
Thu, May 5, 05   11:00 AM debwin7 Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
While looking for something to do in New York, I stumbled upon this food tasting tour. I decided to participate in the tour because I enjoy trying new things and I thought it would be an excellent way for me to learn more about New York, a place I had never been before. After having taken the tour, I did get to taste several different foods and places in Greenwich Village. I wish, however, that there would have been more food tasting and less history about Greenwich Village. I did learn a lot about the area, but I felt that I was misled about everything the tour encompassed. Had I known we would be doing a lot more standing and talking, I may not have participated in it. This is a great tour for those who enjoy talking about the history of different places and getting a hands on experience. If you don't enjoy standing for long periods of time, this tour may not be the best for you.

Wonderful Tour!

My husband and I just loved the tour. It was the highlight of our trip. In fact we ended up back in Greenwich village twice more on our holiday. We will recommend it to any of our friends visiting NYC. The tour guide was exceptional!
