Was the highlight of our trip. Great to see some wonderful ( not chains) restaurants in Greenwich Village. Marie (tourguide) was excellent and a pleasure to tour with. Plan to try out a few of these restaurants on our next trips.

This is a wonderful tour. I can't believe I have been going to the village since 1962 and never knew how much I didn't know about the place. To have the myriad of places to visit whittled down to a choices of the "best" was just terrific! My husband and I really enjoyed finally knowing more details of the history of the area. Our guide was so knowledgeable, anything we asked, she knew the answer. She made our tour just so much fun! Her personality was great, a real "New Yorker"!! I recommend a $ raise for her! Every tour I have taken by the "Foods of New York" has been like a college class in detailed history of places and foods. Thank you so much!! Keep up the good work. I look forward to every tour in the future! Do more parts of Manhattan!

Great tour - wonderful area!

My girlfriend visiting from LA, and myself, who just moved to New York had a lot of fun on the tour. You REALLY won't believe how much you eat! I had already been on the Chelsea Market/ Meat Packing tour and was so impressed and that's why I did this one as well. I can't wait to do the Chinatown tour since so far they have all been great. Thank you!

I wish we had done the this tour first, so that we could have made reserevations for dinner the rest of the nights of our visit to New York! The tour was excellent!

Fabulous Experience!! Would certainly do it again!

We had a FABULOUS experience on the Greenwich Food Tour! I would certainly recommend this to anyone who wants to get to know this great neighborhood and who is interested in filling their tummy with yummy food! Would certainly try another tour upon my next visit to New York. Now, if only those places would deliver to Virginia!

A great way to spend an afternoon in New York!!

Our guide was very engaging and full of great insider information about the food scene in the Central Village and SoHo. Aside from the food, he also was very knowledgeable and had great perspective around the history of the area. There were lots of tastings and the range of tastings was also impressive in terms of variety of cuisines (both savory and sweet). My only regret was that we didn't do the tour earlier in our trip so we could go back and do some of the things he mentioned. So if you're planning on doing a tour, do it as early in your trip as possible - you'll want to go eat at some of the restaurants that you hear about on the tour. I'll do another one the next time I'm in New York for sure. New York is best seen on foot and this tour was a wonderful experience - I highly recommend it.

Great food, Too long of a tour
Fri, Aug 29  11:30 AM tiannetran Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
3 hours for this tour is wayyy toooo long. The food was phenomenal and the portions were great. We were stuffed by about 3/4 way through the tour. But, really, the tour could easily be completed within 1.5-2 hours instead of 3. Pros: Tour guide friendly/knowledgeable, food samples, small groups Cons: Too lengthy, seems like an "older people" type of tour, too much walking - not enough sitting, not enough bathroom breaks

Food, Fun and Fast Pace
Fri, Aug 29  11:30 AM lvandergriff Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Unspecified
Marie was a wonderful guide who kept us moving at a good clip, provided a vast amount of neighborhood information and served as a great food master. There were seven total tasting stops that ranged from pizza to chocolate chip cookies (still warm) to specialty meats, cheeses and my personal favorite...fried rice balls. And as if the food wouldn't be reason enough to highly recommend the tour, the historical information provided made us feel like part of the neighborhood. We even met some of the local residents who were out on the streets that added to the welcoming nature and feel throughout the entire tour. I'm looking forward to my next trip to NYC so I can participate in one of the other Foods of NY neighborhood food tours. Take it from a Midwest girl...you should take this tour the next time you find yourself in NYC.

great food and presentation
Fri, Aug 29  11:00 AM jeg281 Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
This was a great tour for anyone who loves food and we learned a lot about the history of Chelsea market as we went. All the food that we had was delicious. We started and ended with dessert, but with all the walking we did in between you don't even feel guilty! We saw many of the wholesale food buisnesses in Chelsea market and got to sample a variety of foods at each. There wasn't much time for looking around or buying at most of the stores, but we were given a guide that had a listing of all the stores so that we could go back if there was something we were interested in. The tour is a bit pricey, but it's about what you'd pay if you took another tour (Empire State building, Rockefeller Center, NBC Studios, Statue of Liberty...) and paid for lunch. So bring some comfortable walking shoes, 'cause you're in for a treat!
