Go, even if you live in NYC!

This trip was great! Mike was a fabulous guide. We took this tour on our first day in the city and returned several times during the week to try the fabulous restaurants and and visit the shops he recommended. This was well worth the time and money!

Loved it, loved it, loved it!!!
Mon, Jun 30, 08   12:00 PM tanaGray Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
We were 3 women friends from Florida, 2 of whom had never been to NYC before. Our friend (we were visiting in NJ), researched options for us and choose the walking/tasting tour of Greenwich Village. Aside from the 4 of us being together, the tour was the highlight of our visit. Can't say enough about how much we enjoyed and have told everyone I have come in contact with that it is a "must do" if they go to NYC. Our tour guide - Mike - was excellent. He was funny and full of great facts and information relayed in a completely charming and interesting way. All of the tastings were delicious and a really excellent blend from pizzas to olive oil to chocolate chip cookies to cheeses, etc. Would most definitely choose another tour of this ilk should I return. Thank you for giving me the chance to tell you how much we all enjoyed the experience.

A great way to find out more about the history of Greenwich Village, and discover some great local restaurants. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, funny and enthusiastic - he really wanted to make sure we all had a good time. Highly recommended.

THINGS I DID NOT SEE ON MY FIRST NY TRIP
Mon, Jun 30, 08   11:30 AM janilez Female Unspecified International Tourist(s) Group of Friends
This is my second trip to NY and I was looking for an activity that gave me a better feel for some of the neighborhoods. This fit the bill perfectly. I had read the reviews posted and decided on this tour. I loved the insiders view to Greenwich and found it a very funky neighborhood. I was happy to finally find the "Friends" apartment building on this trip. The only disappointment was echoed in some of the previous reviews. While the food tasting was a great idea and filling, this particular tour was too "bread heavy". Tastings were pizza, olive oil and bread, cheese with bread, olives and salami, thai dumpling, piece of chocolate, cookie, pizza and cannoli. Two pizza tasting were redundant-the second stop with the sicily style would suffice. I would have liked another protien (non bread) ethnic item instead. The olive oil place and spice shop where we were given a chocolate did not generate too many "Ooohs" but the cookie bakery was fantastic. I would like to try the SoHo tour next as I read it stops at PB&Co. Would like to see Dean & Deluca shop added on that tour and Pomme Frittes as well. Chinatown tour sounded good and it was listed at half price but was sold out for the period we were in town. Ovewrall, good value for the money. Informative and a dfferent thing to do in NY.

hi - really enjoyed the greenwich tour as it gave great tips, insight, and well, food! we only wished we had gone on the tour earlier in our trip so we could take advantage of the great ideas of things to do rather than our last day. will remember for next time!

Best tour of our entire NYC trip!

Heather our tour guide was absolutely superb! We learned so much from her and we absolutely loved all the food locations that she introduced us to. In fact, we were so delighted with Rocco's Pastry Shop that we went back another day to try their wonderful New York Cheesecake. All in all our entire family enjoyed this tour from start to finish! Thanks, Brenda, Dave, Nicole and Julie

One of the highlights of our trip to NYC!

We did not know what to expect from a food tour and were delighted with the way the tour included a mixture of food, history and information about the architecture of the area. We left the tour full of excellent food and in love with Greenwich Village! Our tour guide (Natalie) was excellent Thank you for a wonderful day.

Michael was a knowledgeable, funny and sincere tour guide who loves the village (it showed). In addition to food tour, we got a historical and cultural tour. We have already recommended the tour to other friends visiting NYC and they booked.

Great food and interesting history of the market.

Our group ranged in age from 11 to 50 & we all enjoyed the tour. We liked every one of our stops (food vendors and restaurants) and food. The tea store was our least favorite stop. We would've like to spend a little more time in the meatpacking district, but maybe we saw all that there was to see. It was a unique part of NY that we wouldn't have otherwise visited or learned about. Our tour guide (Ed) was easy to hear and knowledgeable.

Fun Food, Interesting Area, One Hour Too Long
Sun, Jun 29, 08   11:30 AM LaurieSemke Female 50-59 Combination Group of Friends
The food was great, the guide organized, the neighborhood interesting. The pace could have been faster and the extraneous, non-food information drastically reduced for a more quickly paced and food-centered tour.

Liked Heather, she is great! but the tour itself is not that great~~~ too much advertising for restaurants. The food was good, especially the pizza :) A stop at an ice cream place would be great in the hot summer !
