| 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. | ||||||

50th Anniv. Celebration w. Issiac

| We took the 3 hr. tour of all of NYC with Issiac as part of our 50th celebration of our anniversary with our three children & their spouses. We live in Austin, TX & have celebrated other anniversaries here. The tour was great and Issiac was very informative: historically & currently. Our favorite places we visited with him were the building next to the 9/11 Recovery Center (which we had not visited before) and the seaport village where we could see the three bridges at night and the area close to The River City Cafe where we could look back at NYC's skyline at night. Since our son-in-law is Irish, we were glad to visit the Irish village, also. The weather was 8 degrees & the wind was blowing madly that night & he took us into a coffee house to get hot drinks. Issiac & the limo greeted us in front of our hotel which was a great convenience! Thanks, NY Fun Tours! | ||||||

| Tour guide was great - knowledgable and friendly. Tour normally uses a bus but used SUV this time. SUV was cramped, people in rear seat could not see well and frequent exiting was difficult. Food was interesting and nice variety. | ||||||

Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed it.

| Our tour guide, Isaac, was fabulous. As it happened, we had a five person 'private' tour in an SUV. Isaac commented that the other part of the group requested same, so there were the 5 of us. Isaac, being Jewish, was so informative when we were at the first 2 stops. Quite an education, above and beyond our expectations. We actually felt as if he were part of 'us' and not the guide. We quite bonded with him. He's very personable and a charming young man. Since I booked the tour, I must compare with other tours I've taken in NY. To be honest, (as you requested), I feel that the cost at approximately $95.00 a person was quite high when you factor in the price of the food. I usually tour when I'm in NY and have enjoyed several tours for approx. $40-45. Of course this didn't include food and I don't think our tastings were that expensive. Of course, they were awesome, but in the long run, economical meals. I would recommend this tour, but tell folks up front that it's more expensive than others. A very special treat, compliments of Isaac, was that he dropped us off very near where our children live which saved us a trip to Manhattan to get the subway back to Brooklyn. We were tired by that time and it was nice to be 'home'. Isaac is certainly an asset to your company. We wish you and yours a very happy holiday. | ||||||

| 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. | ||||||

| Issac was very interesting and informed. He knows the area well. He also recommended restaurants that were good. On the tour, we celebrated my birthday by eating cupcakes under the Brooklyn Bridge. Issac was caring and called later to see how we were doing. (Tell Issac we met Murphy at the U.S. Open and we mentioned the "Fun Tours" that Murphy took.) Thanks again for an informative and fun afternoon. Jim & Mary Kay Niles from Yukon, Oklahoma | ||||||

| This was the highlight of our trip to NYC. Strongly recommend doing it as early in your visit as possible as you will be made aware of things you hadn't even thought about and that you would like to do more of. It was kind of like getting a spectrum of colors and then deciding what kind of picture you wanted to paint. Issac was outstanding and perfect for this job.

Best of Brooklyn - Eating out the traditional way
|
|||||
| Fri, May 30, 08 11:00 AM | rosiedant | Female | 60-69 | International Tourist(s) | Family Without Children | |
| We really enjoyed our day in Brooklyn, seeing and tasting our way round the parts of New York not usually visited by tourists. It was good that we were in a small group (6) as we bonded quite quickly and were able to visit the various small eateries without overwhelming the establishments themselves. I particularly liked the Torres chocolate shop and the kinishes and the chollent and the cuban panini was amazing. It was good to be informed by a native New Yorker who really knew his stuff and weaved the MPV adeptly through the streets. We felt completely relaxed and comfortable the whole time we were with him. After we made our Brooklyn trip ,our son came to join us in New York for two days on his way back to the UK from San Francisco and we enthusiastically told him about all that we had seen - he was so impressed that he hired a bicycle and toured Brooklyn on his own and saw some of the sights that we saw - though of course he didnt have the beneffit of our lovely tour guide or taste the food. The sights, the sounds and tastes have left a favourable lasting impression. If I am lucky enough to return to New York in the near future I will definitely take another Zerve trip. | ||||||

An interesting insight into Brooklyn

| We booked the tour prior to leaving Australia in April and visited Turkey, Greece, Paris and Frankfurt before arriving in New York 2 days before the tour. Having experienced a diverse range of ethnic cuisines en-route, it was a delight to sample the varied range of food and wine, as well as experience the cultural diversity encountered in Brooklyn. It was a fabulous tour and Isaac was an excellent host. We enjoyed every moment, and would certainly recommend this tour to anyone visiting New York, and wanting to do something totally different. This Brooklyn food tour was very memorable to us and stands out as something that we very much enjoyed taking part in. | ||||||

| While visiting our daughter, who lives in Brooklyn, we participated in what ended up being a personal tour in our guide's private car. The commentary was lighthearted and informative. The stops for food along the way were a delightful introduction to the ethnic diversity of NYC and Brooklyn in particular. | ||||||

Issac,our driver, made the trip great!

| Issac, our tour guide went out of his way to personalize the trip , and provide a most unique experience. Not only was he a terrific driver, but also one of the better tour guides that I have ever encountered. His knowledge of Soho, The Village and in particular the various areas of Brooklyn was totally impressive. Actually, I suggested to him that he should put together his own tour guide book. If your other drivers have as much knowledge and personality, Fun Tours would be very lucky. He made riding and walking around on a hot Sunday afternoon a pleasure. I liked the idea that the trip was personalized so that we saw many things that we wanted to see, and that Issac was well versed in his history of each area. | ||||||

| My husband and I had taken this tour 3 years ago, and we wanted to share it with our friends this time. The weather was PERFECT for a trip in a convertible. We had the same driver as last time -- Isaac. He is a delight. So knowledgeable about everything we saw -- very thoughtful and caring and seemed to go out of his way to make us comfortable and content. The red convertible is a real treasure. Other people on our NYC trip (a Theatre tour) were quite envious of us for having this great tour. | ||||||

| I cannot express splendor of this New York sightseeing enough because can't talk English well,I am a Japanese. January 26 was a very cold day, but Isacc is gentlemanly and informed carefully. I and my wife are satisfied very much. It will be to become the memory that is important for us. I and my wife give thanks in the way of your wonderful Job. Thank you. Isao & Fukuko Yanagi | ||||||
