Disappointed/impressed with all other tours taken

| 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. | ||||||

| The neighborhood markets takes you back in time where mom and pop places still thrive. The shops bustle with shoppers buying from third generation owners. The food is intriguing and delicious. You will see and taste the freshest products with an authentic Italian flair. I wish there were more neighborhoods like this one. This was a highlight of our trip. | ||||||

| 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

| 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! | ||||||

Checking Little Italy in the Bronx
|

| This tour gives a better alternative to a now tiny area used to be known as Little Italy in Manhattan, as well as a chance to venture out to another borough. Susan's commentary was interesting and the group of the day consisted of both the locals and the overseas visitors. Noshing part of the tour was definitely a plus. I would like to suggest the tour participants to pick up Metro-North Harlem Line's detailed timetable (rather than a small abridged version) from the information desk before the tour. It would provide the information on return train schedule if the tour participants choose to linger around Arthur Avenue, decide to explore the zoo or the botanical garden nearby. | ||||||

| 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. | ||||||

| Our experience was great. A good time was had by all, including our 13 year old. We saw people in their element, doing what they do every day. It was a very interesting glimpse of a different way of living. We sampled a lot of wonderful food! | ||||||

| Susan was very personable and knowledgeable. She was very familiar with the tour area and able to provide information and stories relating to the neighborhood that extended beyond the food. The food samples were ample and delicious. Would highly recommend the tour to anyone considering it and will definitely suggest it to anyone making the trip to NYC. | ||||||

Explore the real Little Italy!

| I had a wonderful day exploring Arthur Ave, eating my way through all its glorious food - you will definitely not be hungry after this tour. Handmade cheeses and salami, olives, italian bakery delights and maybe the best pizza in not only the Bronx but NY! The tour guide is a friendly local and very knowledgeable of the of area, making for an enjoyable and informative day. She provides you with documentation to navigate the area post tour with many recommendations on where to shop and eat, and just a short walk up the road is the Botanical Gardens and the Bronx Zoo. Take this tour, you will not be disappointed.! | ||||||

| Susan was very friendly and it was nice to be taken round by a local. The tasters were good - especially the cheese and I would definitely recommend the walk as a pleasant way to spend a morning. | ||||||

A nice foray into the neighborhood

| 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. | ||||||

We expected more interesting info on the Bronx

| We had to pay extra (9,50 p.p.) for the train from Grand Central to the Bronx, which was an extra cost we did not expect. Our Metrocard was valid for subway and buses, but not for the train. We walked around Arthur Avenue and surroundings, but apart from the food which was ok, we did not learn a lot about the Bronx. The info given was not very interesting. Consider it to be a food tasting tour, not a Bronx tour. | ||||||

Great way to spend an afternoon

| The tour was thoroughly enjoyable. Susan was knowledgable of the area and presented interesting facts of the neighborhood and its residents. We made plenty of stops along the way to sample delicious treats from a variety of shops and specialty markets. Mike's Deli was the best with the cheesmaking demonstration and the samples of several of their cheeses. We've been to Little Italy in Manhattan. You don't know what you are missing until you've been to the "Real Little Italy" in the Bronx. Susan's tour is a great way to experience it! | ||||||
