Taylor doesn’t live there anymore - This was my second tour with this company. I had done Nolita with Bert and it was fabulous, so this time it was Greenwich Village with Cindy. From the first moments I knew this was going to be special. Cindy was just the best, and even surpassed Bert! Her humour and knowledge were outstanding. We learnt so much about the area and its history and food, and ate some delicious dishes. From Murray’s Mac and cheese to the sublime bombolone at RealMoto to tacos at Tacombi it was all absolutely fabulous. As I was on my own I soon bonded with the other 2 solo ladies on the tour which was nice, but everyone enjoyed it and we all bonded as a group. But it was Cindy who made the tour the amazing experience it was. It was definitely the highlight of my trip to New York. 3 hours flew by and I would happily do the whole tour again.

Fun, tasty and informative Food Tour! - We had the best time on our Greenwich tour with Cindy! We got a lot of history, amazing food and being with a local New Yorker really topped it off! Our teen daughter enjoyed it and I felt like Cindy really tried to point out things she’d like to see too;) We also enjoyed getting to chat with others from around the country and the world in our group! Wonderful way to spend a few hours in the Village!

A must do!!! - This was much more than a food tour. This gave us the experience of really feeling the culture of the area. Our guide, Robin, was immensely knowledgeable about everything in the area and its rich history. This is a must do coming to New York…. And the tastings were incredible!!! Can’t wait to come back!

From Murray’s cheese shop to Joe’s pizza and so many other places in between, we had quite the palate party! Thank you for a super fun experience!! Highly recommend this to anyone, even someone who was born in NYC and raised in NJ, who never realized all of the good eats NYC has to offer!

A little talky, otherwise good - 3 hrs of zigzagging the neighborhood. But the stops were good. It would've been better if we went in a straight line or circle to end up back at the beginning, but the cultural part of the tour was interesting, just a little long.
