Tasty Tour NYC Fun - Had the best time tasting amazing food while being entertained with stories of how the foods are prepared and historical data of the area. Ryan was a great tour guide. He was fun, knowledgeable, interactive, and a gentleman. I'd take another Tasty Tour with his company anytime. Thanks again Ryan!

Eye-Opening Hidden Gems - My husband and I had a great time on the Upper Eastside tour. Ryan took us to some places I would not have ever gone to myself as a visitor to the city and would have missed out on greatly - the food was amazing. I had, I believe, some of the best pizza I've ever had. We cannot recommend Ryan and his tour more - he is a great tour guide and comes through with a variety of selections and his knowledge of the area as you walk from place to place.

Great tour with Ryan Watts - WE took a tour today with Ryan Watts and had an exceptionally good time.
We highly recommend Ryan, who is charming, knowledgeable and able to create a very harmonious group experience. Having taken other good tours with other guides, this was the best of all. Requesting Ryan would be an excellent idea.
