Nothing bad to say, well spent 3 hrs in a busy 3 day visit. Guide was funny, personable, knew lots of little facts and stories you wouldn't get anywhere else. Looking forward to the Greenwich village tour the next time.

Where's the culture?
Sat, Jul 2, 05   10:30 AM DebbieTowne Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
This was a delightful tour for people who wondered where to eat/shop while they were in Greenwich Village. The food selected for the tastings was great. Unfortunately, we thought we'd get more information on the history, the types of people who once lived there, etc. I later found out, from someone else, that Greenwich Village actually started zoning laws in New York City, and the story behind that.

What a great way to taste Greenwich Village!

I just had to take a minute to thank you for providing the public with a service that was much better than I had anticipated. Six of us attended the 10:30am tour on July 2nd and it was the best...the BEST thing ever!. The samplings from the local eateries was well rounded and satisfying, and most of them are now on my list of restaurants to hit while in NYC. Our guide, Cindy, was great. Cindy was informative, inconspicuously kept to the schedule, and she was funny. Watching her interact with residents and business looked like something out of one of those "visit NYC" commercials with everyone saying "Hey, Cindy...What's up, Cindy...How ya doin', Cindy"...just great. I had family in from California and hadn't been in NYC for 18 years. The never imagined that NYC had gotten so friendly! I hope to take another tour soon, the Meat Packing district tour looks great. Thanks again, and thanks Cindy...for making us from the NYC area feel so proud.

Good Info but very long tour....
Fri, Jul 1, 05   11:00 AM kendallsmom Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
My husband and I enjoyed the cultural aspect of the tour very much. However, the tour was long (3 hours), it was a hot day and we didn't have a lot of opportunities to stop and rest. The samples from the restaurants were good but not great. Again, we enjoyed it but we probably wouldn't do it again...

Absolutely LOVED it!!!

First of all I should say the tour we did was of Greenwich Village. After we had purchased the Chelsea tickets we needed to add another person and the Chelsea tour was full, so they offered the Greenwich Village tour instead. I am returning to NYC in November and plan to do the Chelsea/Meatpacking tour. The Greenwich Village tour was so much fun! The tour guide, Mike, was awsome. He was knowledgeable and funny and the neighborhood loved him. He knew so many people on the street. The handout we received is great. It lists the places Mike talked about with the addresses, a map, and a sample menu of many of the restaurants. The food we tasted was delicious and I was full after the tour. After the tour my friends and I made so many trips to the village to try the places Mike recommended and we LOVED everything we ate! The tour was a definate highlight to my vacation! I recommend it 100%, enthusiasticallty!!!!! I cannot wait to do the other tour in November!

What a great tour. We saw out of the way places and learned a lot about the history of the area. My daughter (17 yrs) said Joe's had the best pizza she ever tasted. Cindy, our guide, was fabulous. Would highly recommend this tour.

This was the best walking tour I have taken so far! Our guide, Cindy, was so interesting and knowledgeable. The food tastings we had were delicious and provided a nice variety of samples. All of the shop owners we met were so friendly. I learned a lot about the architecture and the history of Greenwich Village. I highly recommend this tour; it exceeded my expectations.

I really enjoyed the tour, and I thought Cindy was an amazing tour guide. She provided us with so much information about places to go and what to eat as well as information about the area in general. I learned so much during this tour, and I got to try a lot of delicious food. I strongly recommend this tour to others!

Three hours flew by with the help of our guide and the food. Great shops and restaurants which helped us to choose a dinner venue for that evening (Cornelia Street Cafe - Jazz too) The history was interesting and you got a good sense of the atmosphere of the "village" Thanks

I expected a tasting tour but the bonus was the history of the location. Excellent history facts of the area was great. The only recommendation is a visit to Washington sq.
