This tour was amazing! We did the Flavors of Chinatown tour with Bert and we loved it. Bert is hilarious and very knowledgeable. We had several locals in the group and they all loved it. Highly recommend to visitors and locals. Super fun and educational. Also, they were able to accommodate a vegetarian and she still got all the same goodies but catered to her without meat or meat products.
This was a great food tour. Robin was our guide and I would say she is the best tour guide I've ever had food or otherwise. She was so knowledgeable and so funny. She paid attention to all of the guests. She had great stories and great food recommendations. The restaurants were good and the portions were excellent. We did not leave the tour hungry. Nolita is a great little area in NYC. It is packed with restaurants. I would highly recommend going on this tour.
Had a great time on the Heart and Soul of Greenwich Village Food Tour last weekend. Chip was great. The weather was cold but the food was warm and yummy. Was full at the end and went back to a couple of the stops to shop after. Will definitely catch another tour on a future visit.
Big thank you to Bert! You are doing great job, Bert! You are very impressive guide with real passion for food. You all, if you read this comment, my message to you is: don’t even hesitate and try Flavors of Chinatown Food Tour! The selection of food was so excellent. And you will eat A LOT :
I've been bringing groups to NYC for more than 25 years. Why didn't I include a food tour sooner?? Our group thoroughly enjoyed our time with our tour guide, the energetic and informative Bert James. He brought Greenwich Village to life with his witty historical observations. He was also the perfect host for each of the eateries we visited. We ate artisanal foods, crafted from the best ingredients. Enjoy a food tour to really open up your NYC experience! Let Foods of NY Tours be your guide. They were great to me and my group.
Rick was our tour guide yesterday for the Original Greenwich Village tour and it was so good. The heat and humidity meant it was a sticky day, but Rick's lively commentary and history of the neighborhood was interesting, so it was worth it! It also helped that there were three sit down spots in various restaurants. We cooled off, tried some aguafresca and ate delicious tastes at each spot. I've done several of their tours pre and post pandemic. I'm never disappointed. From the people leading the tours to the people you're on the tour with, you're going to have a good time, eat excellent food, find new restaurants to love, and explore NY.
Fantastic tours. Did 2 tours over a weekend, both with Bert. He's a great guide and only repeated like 1 joke. Food was really good and some finds I'd never manage alone. Plus a bunch of recommendations of other places. Go, take the tour, learn things and leave with a full stomach.
My husband and I did the Heart of Greenwich Village Food Tour with Ryan. What a great experience. Ryan was very personable, knowledgeable, and funny. We recommend him highly. He presented a good balance of talking food and history. Lots of good food and chocolates, and wine/mojitos. Come hungry. We got to meet the other nice tourists as well. Lots of fun and history we would have never known just walking through the neighborhood. We highly recommend it, and would like to take other tours in the future.
Our tour guide, Chip, was fantastic and all of the local food was amazing! A perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon exploring and eating our way through Greenwich Village!
We went on a food tour of Chinatown with their amazing guide, Bert! We are actually NYC natives and decided we are going to do these food tours in our own city since we do them when we travel out of it. We had a large group of mostly tourists; Bert made sure we all felt included. He was very informative, funny and overall wonderful. The food was fantastic and you can tell he had a relationship with each of the establishments we visited. We actually had not been to any of the establishments we visited today and will be sure to go back. It was a lot of fun and the walking is very manageable.
