Great background, pretty OK food
Fri, Jun 27, 08   12:00 PM cljacobs Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
I think that the balance of tastings is the one area that could use improvement. I agree with previous posters that this tour is heavy on the cheese/bread/pizza, and it would also be nice to get a beverage somewhere along the way - one water bottle wasn't nearly enough on a hot day. Loved the olive oil, chocolate chip cookies, and arrancino. The Thai dumplings were only OK. However Mike was informative and entertaining, carefully treading the fine line between energetic/enthusiastic and cheesy. I learned a lot, and enjoyed seeing a neighborhood in such depth.

My husband & I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Our guide was great & we loved all the eateries that we went to. We thought the whole tour was very well presented & we were made very welcome at all the places we attended. Learning about the history of Greenwich village was fabulous too. Would thoroughly reccommend the tour.

Really great and fun
Thu, Jun 26, 08   6:30 PM LisaBander Female 30-39 Local Couple on a Date
every part of the meal was delicious and the host was interesting, upbeat, comfortable, down to earth, friendly and a great speaker. I would definitely recommend it to friends however I don't normally like sitting with strangers which we luckily didn't have to do because there was enough space in the restaurant.

Fabulous Tour!
Thu, Jun 26, 08   12:00 PM jromero1 Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
I had previously gone on a Greenwich Village tour the year before and loved it so much that I looked forward to the Chelsea area tour and was not disappointed. The tour guide (Curt) was phenonmenal and the food tastings were plentiful and very tasty. We enjoyed the area so much that we returned the following evening to dine at a local restaurant we had passed by on tour and also to buy some goodies from some of the shops in the Chelsea meat packing plant. Would definitely go on this tour again!

Fantastic must thing to do when visiting NYC!

The 3 hour food tour with Rahim our guide was enjoyable. He was funny and articulate. The tour not only introduces some of the best restaurants in town but also history about the area. This is a good value for money and I would recommend to anyone who loves food. We have indeed visited a few places the tour covered which were not recommended by any printed guidebooks.

The tour was great and the tour guide was very funny. Great food along the way, plenty for lunch. Only regret was that we didn't get to take another tour while we were there!

Had A Great Time
Thu, Jun 26, 08   12:00 PM prieto1150 Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
The tour provided a comfortable way to explore part of the city we had not seen before. The great food, nice walk, historical context , and personal anecdotes were a winning combination. We returned to the Chelsea Market Place several times for the good food at a reasonable price. We look forward to another tour when we return. Our guide, Curt, did a great job, providing lots of information in humorous way.

Five for Five----first one to do all
Wed, Jun 25, 08   12:00 PM bluecrayon Male 40-49 International Tourist(s) Individual
I have the honour of being the first person to do all FIVE foodsofny tours ( do I get a frequent flyer card).....I have to say that the Chinatown tour was very very good. Rahmen outdid himself with knowledge and enthusiasium. The food was amazing. Might add a sweet in between all of the savoury choices though. Might also recommend that you consider a bit more of a walk between the Dim Sum place and the Peking Duck Restaurant......I can't recommend this trip too highly and I can't wait for your SIXTH experience-----Awesome job

This tour is a winner!
Wed, Jun 25, 08   12:00 PM julieradach Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We were privileged to be on the first-ever Chinatown Walking Tour, and it gave us not only a great experience of tasting the unique food and learning the history of the area, but we got to see all the planning and preparation that goes into these tours. Rahim and Todd did a great job handling the inevitable curveballs that occur during a first-time run-through. This was the highlight of our week in Manhattan, and it will only get better as time goes on! We loved the food, loved the atmosphere of Chinatown, loved the whole experience.

Greenwich - tasty and endearing
Wed, Jun 25, 08   12:00 PM scgodsey Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Michael did a WONDERFUL job! It just wouldn't have been the same or as effective with any other guide. He's very articulate and passionate about his village. I wouldn't change a thing about our tour except maybe we'd have kept him for the rest of the day! Please let him know how much we enjoyed his tour. Samantha and Sue from KY

A Special New York Experience
Wed, Jun 25, 08   12:00 PM Pkoeffinger Female 50-59 Local Group of Friends
We wanted to do something fun for our friend's birthday. The three of us are all relatively new to New York City and wanted to learn more about our city. We love to find new places to eat and explore, so I signed us up for the Greenwich Village tour. We were delighted with our day. It was fun to discover new "hidden treasures" on the streets that we thought we knew. We learned so much about the culture and vibe of the neighborhood with a guide who not only lives in the neighborhood but also seemed to know everyone we passed. That was an added bonus! We can't wait to go back to the neighborhood to dine, listen to music and shop. Great job!! We are eager to try the other tours you offer.

Who knew GV was so quiet

I live about an hour away from NYC but have always wanted to learn more about the different parts of the city. Greenwich Village is so charming-hard to believe all the hustle and bustle is so close by. There are lots of tree lined streets and you really get the feel of a neighborhood. My friends and I loved this tour. I had it bookmarked for a year-why did I wait so long? The food was delicious-and the walk was very doable. Barri was fun and full of facts about the area. We had a diverse group-people from Austrailia-people from New Jersey. Everyone chats and we had a good time. I highly recommend it. Our weather could not have been better. I will definitly do other tours from this company.
