| My mom was visiting from Colorado and she really wanted to do a food tour. When I looked on line, I thought the Broolyn food and cultural tour sounded like the most interesting one out there and we were thrilled to find out that was the case! The tour takes you from the LES into several diverse Brooklyn neghborhoods. Our favorite stops were the Hassidic Jewish deli and the Jaques Torres Chocolate shop. Our guide was knowledgable and very friendly. I think the only thing we didn't like that we tasted were the cuban pork sandwiches, but we both agreed that it was still a wonderful experience trying them and we wouldn't have changed a thing on the tour! |

| Issac was a wealth of knowledge about Brooklyn and all its areas. It turned out that we got a private tour as no one else signed up for a cold day at the beginning of January. He took us to the usual places and then out to Coney Island too. We enjoyed all the areas he brought us to and the food was really good, too. I've recommended this tour to our friends at home. |

| 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! |

| This was a lot of fun. We got to see a few parts of Brooklyn. Obviously, this is not a comprehensive tour. However, we did get to sample lots of local cuisine. There was enough food for a very satisfying lunch. Our tour guide was very friendly too. My only reservation is that about half of our stops were at Jewish themed restaurants and bakeries. While I enjoyed the food thoroughly, I was expecting a more diverse array. Nonetheless, I did get to sample many foods I never would have eaten otherwise, so I am glad I took the chance. |

| This was an intimate trip with just 10 of us plus the tour guide in a minivan. It was a great way to see Brooklyn and gave some excellent photo ops. The food part of the tour was interesting, we went to many places that we would have walked straight passed normally. Although some of the food wasn't to our taste, it was definitely a multi-cultural tour and the food and places visited were truly authentic. The tour guide was knowledgeable of the areas through which we travelled, he was friendly and open to questions.
Overall a great tour. |

| 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. |
