There were two of us on the knitting crawl. We had lots of fun even though it rained all day!!!! It was great to go to many hidden knitting stores.

We loved our tour with SusanSez.

We toured Arthur Avenue in the Bronx with Susan. We had a wonderful time. She was so informative and we loved stopping into the food shops and trying the wonderful samples. We had so much to eat that we were stuffed by the end and we discovered many new places to come back and try. Susan gave us lots of time and we were not hurried at all. We highly recommend the tour.

Disappointed/impressed with all other tours taken
Sat, Apr 25  10:30 AM vdehaven Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
The guide picked us up at the Grand Central Station in the city where the tour began. We took the Northern train to The Bronx. The walking tour itself was nice, had numerous stops and interesting to see the neighborhood. Our group was disappointed that at the end of the tour we weren't given a guide to get back to the train area. It was explained that some people wanted to visit the Bronx Zoo or the Bontanical Gardens while in the Bronx. This is ok but I still believe for the ones that did not want to do this should have been taken back to the area to catch the train. Our group is not "big city" people and was not comfortable with following verbal directions. Perhaps even a map given out at end of tour would have been better. We went to the Botanical Gardens and considered touring. We were not informed though that it was a twenty dollar charge. We had to ask three different cops/booth attendants to finally locate where we caught the train back to Grand Central Station.

Great Day with Suzy!

I would recommend this tour. Went in with a group of friends and would recommend that a group go....Suzy is fun and if you're a fun group, you'll enjoy being with her. The shops were great and most places gave you a bite to taste. Learned a lot about the history of Arthur Ave. Basically, a good day with good friends, good food and good fun. Thanks!

A perfect day shopping and knitting
Wed, Sep 24, 08   10:30 AM susieb333 Female 40-49 Local Group of Friends
Susan was an excellent guide. Not only did she know the "ins and outs" of the city, she brought us to very cool, obscure knitting shops - places we would never have experienced on our own. Her knowledge of the city's history made the walks between stores interesting and fun. We finished the day happy, tired and much poorer for buying yarn for inspired projects. We would love go with her again and see some of the other shops on her list. (And my husband wants to eat his way through the Arthur Avenue Walk she organizes!) Would highly recommend this outing!

Fantastic!

We had a great time on the knitting walk about. Susan is just great and took us to fantastic places. I took my friend as a retirement gift and we both were very happy (But tired) at the end of the day. I highly recommend this trip.

Good Tour/Not enough Seen
Wed, Oct 17, 07   10:30 AM CynthiaHoff Female 50-59 Local Group of Friends
We enjoyed the tour however feel that it would have been better if there had been a time limit set for each store visited. Too much time was spent at 1st location and we didn't get to as many others as we would have liked. This was a great way however to see where some of the little knit/yarn shops are located. Maybe ending the tour at the shop we started with would have worked better. It was a great store and it was hard to leave.

The real flavor.
Thu, Sep 27, 07   11:00 AM nonielinker Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
We met ebullient Susan on the street corner (where else but in NY). She gave us some materials to look at (mostly for later), a bottle of water and our first taste of NY - chicken jerky. Just 4 of us walked around lower East NY, as Susan pointed out buildings and sites along with its history. We stopped in neighborhood shops - old shops - that made us also step back in time. We sampled the goodies of the area; candy, soda, donuts, hotdogs. It was a very enjoyable tour...lots of fun.

A Great Time Was Had by All
Mon, Oct 23, 06   11:45 AM joantraynor Female 60-69 Local Group of Friends
Susan of Susan Sez provided us with a wonderful, informative experience. After giving us some of the history of the Bronx Belmont section, Susan graciously brought us to many local specialty shops including the Arthur Ave. Market where we tasted everything from homemade sausages,fresh cheeses , breads, pastries and pizza to a lovely slice of Italian cheesecake at the walkabout's end. What a treat !! During all of this we heard about the local trivia and visited some very noteworthy historical spots. In addition, we found out about several nice restaurants. I highly recommend this tour to all.

I went with a group for a project we're doing on the island. The tour was quite informative and helped us greatly. Susan is a well-informed and charismatic tour guide. I highly recommend the tour.

A nice foray into the neighborhood
Sat, Sep 16, 06   11:45 AM karinacopen Female 30-39 Local Group of Friends
I loved going to Arthur Avenue. The food we sampled was delicious and I bought lots of yummy stuff to bring home. I would highly recommend visiting the neighborhood. The tour itself was average. Other than pointing out the good places to shop and eat, I did not find the information particularly interesting or useful. So, if you want a guided way to see the Ave, take the tour, otherwise, I say go explore around on your own.

Such a fun Saturday Activity

This was a great tour - gave us a bit of the cultural/historic background of the neighborhood as well as guiding us through a wonderful array of culinary treats. It was such a fun afternoon and a great way to explore a new area of the city.

This was my second tour with Susan. I had to bring a friend to experience the "Real Little Italy" of New York. The tour was so informative and interesting. The tastings were wonderful and generous. Thank you Susan!

comfortable, friendly tour
Sat, Apr 22, 06   11:45 AM trishp Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
My friend and I totally enjoyed Susan and her tour. She is informative, down to earth, friendly, lots of energy. I plan on doing the rest of her tours as I return to the city over the next couple of years. I want to bring my daughter, also. The food was yummy and the vendors very pleasant. I would highly recommend this tour.
