Lively and Delicious!
Tue, May 3, 05   11:30 AM johntgriffin Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Michael, our guide, seemed to know most of the people in Greenwich Village. As we enjoyed our delicious and informative tour, people would wave and smile to him so we knew that he was a recognized and loved member of the neighborhood. I think this added to intimacy of the tour. It was as if we were visiting a friend's house and stopping in the kitchen(s) for tasty little morsels of food. I'm looking forward to visiting many of the restaurants, shops and bakeries that we visited. Thanks for a great tour!

Excellent!
Tue, May 3, 05   11:30 AM badgerfish Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Had a great time on this tour. Michael, our guide was very friendly and informative and took us round some fascinating places we would never have found by ourselves. He seems to be a real local character with a personal perspective on the area and its history. A bit of advise though - don't follow this up with a visit to the Empire State Building like we did. After being on my feet for 3 hours the last thing I wanted was to stand in a long queue (that's a long line if you are from the US). On the other hand, after all that exercise I didn't feel too guilty about the gorgeous cakes!

too much gossip, not enough history

More walking and more hard historical information would have made the tour better. Michael, the tour guide was friendly and enthusiastic.

We loved it!
Tue, May 3, 05   11:00 AM NancyMcmulle Female 70+ Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
The tour was fascinating and we saw many interesting things that we would have missed if we were on our own. The food stops were spaced well and we certainly didn't need to buy lunch...we were full. Later, we had dinner in one of the places pointed out to us and it was excellent. The tour was a highllight of our trip.

Very good guide and tour - easy walking good food
Tue, May 3, 05   11:00 AM finn03 Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Individual
I enjoyed it but the traffic made hearing difficult. May-be talking should be done inside more due to this. Our guide did a good job. A drinking stop would have been nice too!

A fun tour!
Mon, May 2, 05   11:00 AM pooliolio Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
I really enjoyed this tour, and am so glad I tried it. Our guide Kurt was knowledgeable, interesting and funny. Since he has worked in the restaurants in the area, he had many great stories to tell of his personal experiences. I now have several restaurants I would like to try, and I never would have found them on my own. I made the mistake of eating breakfast beforehand--- DEFINITELY make sure you show up hungry; you won't be disappointed. The most amazing cannoli I have ever tasted!

Enthusiastic, approachable and knowledgeable guide, tasty selection of goodies and useful information to take away all helped make this a thoroughly enjoyable experience - we headed back again next day and plan to stay locally next trip.

One of the best tours we were ever on!
Sun, May 1, 05   12:00 PM corwiz Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
This is the first food tour my husband and I had ever been on and Todd made it fun and educational. He was very well informed and seems to enjoy giving the tour as much as we enjoyed taking it. With lots of history, humor and good eats we spent the best day of all of our trips to New York City. We hope to take your other food tour on next year’s family trip, and after hearing us talk about it most of the rest of our group wants to come with us. When we got home, I looked online for other food tours in different cities but yours was the only one I could find. If you start doing other tours anywhere please let us know. We want to take food tours in more cities. Thank you very much for a great day. Suzi and Jay.

Informative, Fun, Good Food
Sun, May 1, 05   12:00 PM janeth Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
This tour and the wonderful guide Todd was one of our favorite events while spending 5 days in NYC. We had a small group of 7 at noon on Sunday which added to our enjoyment. The food tasting was great. We feel like we have been part an event and an area that will become a big tourist attraction in the next years as the words gets out and as the Meat Packing area grows with shops and restaurants. I would recommend it to anyone.

Entertaining tasty insight into Greenwich Village
Sun, May 1, 05   11:00 AM Tony_Clegg Male 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
We enjoyed the food tour of Greenwich Village greatly, although its not just about food. This was our first trip to New York and we had an enjoyable and informative time which would not have been possible without our guide's insider knowledge. Our guide, Jenny was entertaining and knowledgable and her enthusiasm for the area was infectious. As a result of tips from the tour we were able to get much more out of the rest of our day in the area and had a great meal at Surya followed by jazz music at the Cornelia Street Cafe. Very much recommended.

Before I came to NY I never had a desire to visit but after this tour I have developed a new infatuation with this wonderful city. Thank you. Our tour guide - Cindy - was awesome.

Yum!!!

We enjoyed the talking, walking and eating even though it was raining outside. The guide had a zest for the food, a genuine love of the neighborhood and gave some factual history of the village. Certainly the next time I visit New York City, I will make sure that I make my way to get a piece of Joe's Pizza and of course a visit to Bruno's Bakery.

Fell in love with the Village and enjoyed the food
Sat, Apr 30, 05   11:30 AM joycewt Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
We spent a great day touring the village and tasting our way through all the local food mecca's. Our guide was terrific, enthusiastic and knew just what we wanted to see. We had a rainy day, but enjoyed everything. What a great way to see an area and really feel the pulse of all it has to offer. I would love to do another on my next trip. We were 7 girlfirends traveling from Tampa who had all been to the city before, but none of us had ever really experienced anything quite like this before. It was marvelous.
