Enjoyed Ourselves

| We enjoyed both the food and commentary. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and well-spoken, and shared a lot of information about the history and architecture of the Village as well as several dozen restaurants. The food was really good, although I have to admit I expected a little more eating, given the number of restaurants that were discussed, and a bit less walking. It would have been helpful if the tour had started and stopped at the same place, as we found ourselves ending quite a distance from our starting point even though we passed it mid-way in the tour. Overall it was a very good experience and introduced us to places we will certainly revisit in the future. | ||||||

| The tour guide has lived in the village for 20 years. His love for the village and its uniquiness was evident. The group size was small and intimate (16 people). The tour it self was not commerialized! | ||||||

Great historical tour with some great tastes of NY

| Our tour guide was very knowledgable about NY and the history. We loved the Meat-packing district, and ended up going back there for lunch a couple of times. The local, young businesses were accommodating for our group and the tastes of their wares was impressive and brought us back for more. After the tour we went back to buy gifts and souvenirs for friends and family. We visited Chelsea Market twice more after our tour. We would highly recommend it to anyone -- locals or visitors in the area. The tour group was small (16) and it was fun to share notes with them about what to see, etc. | ||||||

| We enjoyed our enthusiastic tour guide, as well as all the food we tasted. There were plenty of tasting stops and our tour guide even provided us with details about the history of some of the restaurants and local homes. We visited original Row houses as well as the doorstep of an old Italian Merchant Mansion. | ||||||

| Our food tasting tour was complimented by a historical description of the West Village area. I have lived in NY all my life and found out things during this tour I was not aware of. David was an excellent tour guide and the way the tour is managed makes the food tasting portion a pleasure. There is enough for eveyone to taste the many flavors offered on the tour. | ||||||

A must see and do in New York

| This is our second Foods Tour in New York and by far the best! Our guide, Ed Carabella was informative, entertaining and catered to the groups needs. The variety of stops, the sample of foods and the information about the places was fantastic! Chelsea Market is an artisan boutique market for food and the variety and creativity of the vendors made this a unique experience. The sample sizes were more than adequate and certainly encouraged the participants to want more and go back. Our group stated that this was a great culmination to our New York visit. | ||||||

unique Nyc experience

| This unique New York experience was excellent. My daughter and I wanted something that we had not done in nyc. If you are a fan or want to be a fan of the city this is the experience for anyone. The guide, David, helped make walk just perfect. We love nyc and wanted to learn more about the history and the tour worked out perfectly, and of course all of the delicious food added to our enjoyment. We really appreciated the booklet to take home that lists some of the eating establishments on the tour so that we can return to the area and try out the dinners. The resteraunts were delicious and best of all were moderately priced so you can go out often. We would definitely recommend this experience to anyone traveling to nyc. It is a grerat introduction to new York or for us something completely unique after you have seen all of the large attractions and want something different. | ||||||

| The tour was a great way to see chinatown and to get amazing food we would never have found by ourselves. The guide was excellent and was sharing his knowledge in a personal way. We had a lot of fun and couldnt eat any more food for the rest of the day. We recommend you all to take this tour, and that you eat a very small breakfast before, if any. | ||||||

This tour is a must. The highlight of my trip

| I can't say enough wonderful things about my food tour of Chinatown. First, the food was amazing and I am craving peking duck and dumplings. Raheem was a terrific tour guide. He took us to outstanding restaurants and gave us interesting history of the Chinatown area. It gave me a new understanding of the area and appreciation for the multicultural groups that live and work there. I can't wait until my next trip to Chinatown with my family so I can introduce them to the Chinese food. I would highly recommend this tour to get an insiders look at Chinatown and a feel for its' people, cultures , foods and history. Make sure you end your tour with a back massage and a bubble tea. Unbelievable. | ||||||

| This was our second Foods of New York tour; we had done the original Greenwich Village tour last summer. Our guide Susan was excellent--friendly and very informative. The tastings were all delicious and unusual. I highly recommend you do both tours, and if you're new to the area, do the original tour first. | ||||||

| My friend and I went into the tour only expecting to get food, but we got so much out of it than that! Not only did we have a very wide variety and a good representation of the cuisine but we were "taught" how to eat the foods as well as learn about the food preparation and background on how the foods developed through the times. Every food we received was very high quality (because most of the foods we had before, so we were able to make a good comparison) and in vast quantities so there were more than enough for seconds and thirds if your stomach could handle it. We were also given a mini history tour of Chinatown, which was very interesting to learn about. Overall, it was a LOT of food, lots of information, and a really good time. We definitly recommend this tour, even if you're a native New Yorker! | ||||||

Rich With Chinatown History

| I did this tour after doing the Greenwich Tour the day before and was a little disappointed. Our tour guide Raheem was enthusiastic and knowledgable regarding Chinatown. The first course of dim sum was some of the best I have ever tasted.. The tastings that followed were all mediocore in my opinion. Some folks did rave about the peking duck which I do not care for the taste. I should mention that this tour was on special for 1/2 price and was decent for the money. I f contemplating a tour I highly recommend the Greenwich Tour instead of this one. | ||||||

Feel comfortable eating around Chinatown.
|

| Wed, Jul 23 12:00 PM | AndreaMai | Female | 40-49 | Local | Family Without Children | |
| The tour was great. The guides made us feel very comfortable in Chinatown as tourist. I liked eating in the restaurants , but equally liked eating on the streets. The guides made it clear that they were not in a deal with the places we visited and were a little dissapointed when there would be a hard sell at the end by the shop. I found this fine and I think it is important for new people to Chinatown to get used to the hard sell they do and just say no thank you and walk away if they are not interested, it is just business. Good tour guides. We will do another tour! | ||||||

| This was an amazing tour!! Definitely the best part of our trip to NY. We went back to a few of the places we visited on the tour and the dinner and dessert were great. This tour really is something that should not be missed. | ||||||
