| My boyfriend and I had limited time to spend in New York and decided to go on the Best of Brooklyn Food Tour after reading reviews on TripAdvisor. We love trying new foods and were really excited for this part of the trip. It turned out to be a great decision as this was our favorite part of the trip. We were able to try numerous new things that we would otherwise not have known about. Our guide was knowledgeable, passionate, and very considerate. We would highly recommend this tour and wish that we had time to go on another in a different neighborhood! |

| Really enjoyed this tour. We were able to visit and take part in the local foods of each diverse area in Brooklin. This tour provided us with some history not found anywhere else. Would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to go off the beatened path and experience the true beauty of Brooklin. |

| Our family of 3 has been to New York City a few times. We were looking for something different, so we booked New York Fun Tours day in Brooklyn for June 1. As it turned out, the 3 of us were the only bookings for Brooklyn that day. Did they cancel on us? NOT ON YOUR LIFE! Bill called me the morning of our tour to remind me of our meeting place and to tell us that we’d be having a private tour that day. He told us our guide, Isaac would be showing up shortly and we’d be on our way. We were able to try some awesome ethnic food from places that we would have never even noticed on our own. We saw and learned about several parts of Brooklyn, but the best part is the way that Isaac interacted with us. The whole day was conversational and fun and very flexible. I really appreciated the way that Isaac “went with the flow” instead of reciting a script to narrate the sites. We decided that we wanted to walk back across the Brooklyn Bridge which we did and Isaac got us to the “starting point” on the Brooklyn side. It took about 45 minutes or so, at a pretty leisurely pace. Would I recommend New You Fun Tours? ABSOLUTELY! |

| The tour was exactly what we wanted -- "unknown" places with wonderful food. The tour did not take you to the same spot everyone else was going but actually catered to what our group wanted with impromptu stops and tastes. We enjoyed the tour and Isaac the tour guide immensely. Isaac was very knowledgeable and willing to change plans based on our interests. He did an excellent job of making sure that everyone enjoyed the tour as much as he seemed to be giving it. |

| This tour was wonderful for two reasons. The first is you get to eat some great food during the tour. The second reason is you also learn about the history and people who live or have lived in the areas that the tour takes you through. Isaac (tour director) was very knowledgeable on Brooklyn and New York (he lives in NY). He was very friendly and accomodating to our questions and needs. I would highly recommend this tour. |

| Isaac lead our goup of 13 on a fun and filling tour. It was a rainy day but fortunately we had a large bus to keep us out of the rain. The bus came with an on-the-ball driver who navigated the bus safely through many narrow streets. We sampled a variety of different foods and left the tour filling very full. Isaac was wonderful and very informed. |

| 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. |

| The tour was delightful and I felt like I was going back in time. Visiting the food vendors everything was made by hand with love. The tour guide was very informative about Brooklyn he knew the" ins" and "outs "of the borough. It is a wonderful treat. |

| We come to New York once a year. The last 6 years we have signed up for a different food tour. This tour rated as one of the best. Our tour guide was very friendly and informative about the area. We will recommend this tour to our family and friends. |
