| We enjoyed this tour very much. There were 7 of us in the group and we especially enjoyed the market. Of course, most of us have watched the food channel, and look forward to seeing more of the food channel since we have been to the market. I am sure the Meatpacking area will improve as changes are made. We also went on the Greenwich tour several months ago, and that had more to offer as far as restaurants were concerned. However, we would recommend both tours, and have done so. No one has been disappointed. Jean Cantwell | ||||||

| My daughter and I loved the hours we spent with Mike. He taught us so much that we will use on future visits, was delightfully informative, enthusiastic, knowledgable, and paid constant personal attention to the members of the group. I wish there had been more opportuniities to sit down occasionally, but maybe that is because I am older than the average participant. I would now like to take the Chelsea tour. | ||||||

| The tour was more of a historical and cultural overview of the Village as opposed to just a food tour. We enjoyed Mike our guide - he lived in the Village and great insight and anecdotes. The food was good - there could have been more of it. Also we didn't find that the food provided was unique or above and beyond what we normally enjoy. We did return to the Village for dinner the next day but went to a restaurant not on the tour. Overall I would recommend for those looking to glimpse a part of New York you may not be familiar with. | ||||||

| Our tour guide was Curt, a pleasant surprise to find he was Canadian. He was informative, knowledable. We learned much about the area & local history. It was so much more enjoyable having him give us details about an area that we were unfamiiar with. We enjoyed our tour so much that we booked the Greenwich tour also. I would highly recommend this tour to all, and have already done so to friends travelling there in a few months. Congratulations to you at foodsofny. June Knowles. | ||||||

| Kurt Upton, the guide, was fantastic. He was funny, informative, interesting, friendly, genuine, etc,etc. The tour was always interesting without any boring lapses. The variety of foods was delicious and the pace was perfect. | ||||||

| Thought Mike was knowledgable and considerate - I learned a lot about the VIllage, spent some time ont he places we visited and made several purchases - would not have known about these fine establishments without you. Will definately take more tours the next time I'm in NY. | ||||||

| This was a delightful event in our four-day visit to NYC. The weather was perfect. The walk was energizing and healthy. The stops along the way were well planned and fit together extremely well. The food was delicious and very authentic. And last but certainly NOT least the tour guide, Michael, was definitely the best part of the tour. He was very knowledgeable, very polite, well known by everyone we met - a complete gentleman in every sense of the term!! I have already recommended this tour to everyone that I have spoken with since. | ||||||

| This walking tour is part food, part culture and part history. Our tour guide was insightful, knowledgable and entertaining, and the food tastings were wonderful. Highly recommended. | ||||||

Greenwich Village - Wow!

| The places we stopped and the the tastings were exceptional. I loved getting to find some of the unique places in Greenwich - found so much more than I could have on my own. I thought Susan lacked a little bit of a connection with her information and the tour guests. She didn't seem particularly enthusiastic or engaged, but the stops were so fabulous, it didn't really detract from my experience. | ||||||

| A great combination of food sampling and history of the neigborhood and the surrounding area. I'd reccomend that you take the tour on your first day in the city so that you have as much time as possible to enjoy all the fabulous restaurants. | ||||||

| We took the three-hour walking/tasting tour of Greenwich Village based on the suggestion of some friends in the large (200+) group of us from Dallas, rather unsure of what to expect. We were quite enthusiastically greeted by Mr. Curt Upton, who gave a very enjoyable tour. Curt was knowledgeable about the culture, history and customs of Greenwich Village as well as being very well informed about each food location that we visited. But beyond his script, Curt had worked at a restaurant in this area and had lived close by, so he knew many of the employees and locations on a more personal basis. Curt was friendly and was able to answer the many varied questions asked during the tour. He did a great job of keeping us on schedule and finished up right on time. We highly recommend this tour to anyone who enjoys good food and the fascinating history of this beautiful part of Manhattan! | ||||||

Great Food - So So Neighborhood
|

| The Chelsea Market is a great location and it would have been nice to have a tour of some of the production facilities of NY1, Food Network, or Oxygen. It was hard to get back from the final destination to get back to the Market at the end of the tour. The Meat packing district is changing quickly, but was not really the reason we wanted to take the tour. Finally, it would have been nice to have one true entree served as part of the tour. The soups and appetizers were great, but even as small entree would have added/complemented the food served greatly. The tour was good and overall I would recommend it to my friends. | ||||||

| My husband & I were looking for something different than the typical tour as we have been to the city a number of times. We really enjoyed the knowledge of the history of the Chelsea/Meatpacking district that our tour guide (Cindy) had to offer us. Seeing a part of the city that is in such a state of change felt like we were watching history happen before our eyes! The food tastings were delicious and provided a nice variety - afterwards we went back to purchase some more to take back home! Our only complaint was that we didn't get the coupons in our packet as we had been promised. We definitely would recommend this tour to other people! | ||||||
