| We loved this tour. Not only were we able to try different foods that were delicious but we learned a lot about the areas we covered. We would recommend this tour to anybody who loves to eat and is curious about foods of other cultures. |

Very fun and interesting tour!

| Definitely bring your appetite to this one. You'll sample some excellent food from different ethnic groups (in our case Polish, Jewish, Cuban, and some chocolate, too). This tour gives you the chance to see various neighborhoods of Brooklyn, including some stunning views of NYC that you might never have otherwise seen. Ditto with the food--it's stuff you might not otherwise try but will definitely not regret having. Delicious. Tour guide (Isaac) was very informative, fun, and knew all the good places and food to visit. I did this as a corporate outing/team building event and I found it to be a good venue for that. |

| We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. We ventured into areas of Brooklyn that we were not familiar with. The local restaurants that we tried were fabulous and well worth another visit. |

| I joined the tour as an individual and I had a wonderful time. There were enough congenial other participants to ensure that everyone had chatty company.
The tour started promptly and the bus was spacious and comfortable. Isaac clearly is proud of his city and carefully selected all the stops on the tour for their uniqueness and authenticity. We had delicious knishes, Cuban sandwiches, gourmet chocolates, hearty Polish food .... really a good variety.
The restaurants knew in advance we were coming and the food arrived as soon as we were seated.
I enjoyed Brooklyn so much that I returned the next day. Isaac was very professional and worked hard to make sure everything went smoothly and all his guests were well-cared for. I'll definitely recommend this tour to others, and will probably take it again myself in a year or two. |

| Isaac was fantastic. I got much more than I expected from this tour. It was my first time in Brooklyn. Isaac is very knowledgeable, and made every effort to ensure that we were getting the most out of this tour. He took us to wonderful local eateries and shops where the food is made onsite. We got a look at some very interesting ethnic neighborhoods. And because he had time, and it was a beautiful day, we got to go to Coney Island, too, and have hot dogs at the original Nathan's. I had a great time, as did the others on the tour. I highly recommend it! |

| The guide was extremely knowledgable and interesting. He showed the group parts of New York the average tourist would not visit and opened up a new discovery - great tasting food!! We exprienced Kosher, Cuban, Italian and of course chocolate to top it all off. A pleasant and different 4.5 hours |

| Our group was only 3 people and the guide so we had a lot of time to ask questions and get indiviual attention. This kind of tour is much different that the kind where there are a lot of people. Our guide told us they have a 16 person maximum so that the tour can be special.
The food was great, we had knishes, a cabbage noodle dish, stuffed cabbage, and a cuban sandwich. We also stopped at 2 chocolate factories for desert.
It was a beautiful day so we took a short ride to Coney Island which was fun and the ride along the coast was beautiful. Our guide added this as my special request as it isn't usually part of the tour.
Issac was a great guide. |

| An amazing tour made even more wonderful by the knowledge kindness and sense of humour of my tour guide Isaac.
The tour itself is diverse interesting and quirky, taking in locations views and life styles which range from one colourful extreme to another.
I strongly recommend this outstanding tour - and please make sure you ask for Isaac- he's brilliant! |
