| It was myself (male 44 years old) and my 12 year old daughter on this tour so it was just the two of us. Cindy was our tour guide and you talk about a lady with enthusiasm plus, she had it. She was a very knowledgeable, fun, and experienced tour guide and really hit it off with my daughter. In addition to all of the great food that we had at each stop (probably about 8 total stops) we learned a lot about the culture and history of that part of Greenwich Village. I would highly recommend anybody who likes to eat and sample great food to take this tour. Cindy provided us with a pamphlet that had all the restaurants in that area in it along with a map of where we could find them. The idea behind this tour was to try some various types of foods you may not eat on a regular basis and decide to come back and try them again on your own. We started off with a big 1/2 slice of pizza from John's Pizza and concluded it at Murray's Cheese Shop with several different kinds of meat and cheeses to sample. In between we had a stop at Milk and Cookies, and another stop at a place to get some seaweed salad, and another stop where we tasted delicious fried artichokes. Great experience with a great tour guide made for a great time for me and my daughter!!! | ||||||

| The Food Tasting Tour was enjoyable but a little too long. Our leader was outstanding, clear, loud enough considering the truck traffic noise on small streets, knowledgeable, genial. The tastings: pizza at Joe's, Rice Balls from the Pork Store, the soy from soy & sake restaurant, and the chocolate chip cookies were great. The fried artichoke hearts were awful. Here are a few suggestions: !) Either make it shorter by an hour or have more opportunities to sit while eating and hearing the lecture. We stopped and heard about so many restaurants that we did not go into and then you feel like it's just an ad for those restaurants. 2) We only sat once and it was such a relief. Not sure why we couldn't sit down in some of these places especially if they were empty. 3) We started and ended at Murray's Cheese Shop. Yet, there was no cheese tasting!? And, tour members needed to go to the restroom....Murray's had one restroom and often were not very happy about us using it. More opportunities to use the bathroom would be great. 4) My group really felt that the tour price was well worth it but would have liked it to be shorter with less standing hearing about restaurants we were not going to visit. We did enjoy it and picked up sausage, cheese, bread and brought it home and cooked a fabulous meal. | ||||||

| We previously lived on Long Island before moving to Florida but had not spent much time in Manhattan. Our guide, Kurt, showed us what we had been missing all those years. He is a well informed young man and very savvy about the Greenwich Village area. The foods that we tasted were delicious and typical of this very distinctive cultural area. This tour is highly recommended, especially for non-New Yorkers visiting the city. | ||||||

| found the food tour reviewed on YELP and after reading the many good reviews decided to purchase the Greenwich tour as it fit our schedule. my two teenage children said it was their favorite thing that they did in the city. Cindy was our guide and she was stunning, cleaver with all members attending and very informative. Cindy had a way to connect with everyone and her pride in NY sure did show through. it was hot and the only thing i think i would have changed was the feeling that we were rushed in the vegan/vegetarian asian restaurant. it was a new addition to the tour that we found out about that day and we ordered drinks to have with our sampling and couldnt finish them. no need to eat beforehand as you will eat plenty and a wide variety of things. i loved it all. its worth the $$ as you are touring for at least three hours if not more. i wish we could have been there longer to do another. if you love food definitely do it. (not for small children) | ||||||

| Having been to Chinatown before, it was wonderful to finally understand some of the history of both the place itself and its culinary delights. Our guide Raheem was knowledgeable and personable. Our diverse and friendly group made the tour even more enjoyable. My husband and I have been on 3 other tours with this company and have never had a bad experience. | ||||||

| Loved this tour. Tour guide, Bari, was knowledgeable and friendly. Enjoyed all the stops and the tastings and the recommendations for future visits to the area. We will definitely recommend this to friends and look forward to doing some of your other tours. The group size was optimal and if I could make one suggestion it would be to have the participants introduce themselves very briefly, i.e., name and where one is from. It would just serve to be a very quick ice breaker. | ||||||
