Our tour guide was great. We have eaten some things we never have eaten before. We also went to Coney Island and we have had the best hot dog there we have ever had.

I enjoyed the trip very much. My guide was excellent - friendly and very knowledgeable about the area. He also had a great sense of humour which made the overall experience perfect. I have been to New York numerous times but have never seen much of Brooklyn until now. It was so interesting! I'd definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting or even living in NY.

I absolutely loved this!! I loved all the food, and found Brooklyn fascinating. Our guide had great knowledge and a real love of the area. It was so interesting seeing and experiencing the Jewish and Latin districts, which I would most certainly not have experienced without the trip. It was absolutely brilliant. Perhaps one small improvement could be to give a leaflet detailing the areas and eateries we visited and the foods we tried. This trip absolutely exceeded my expectations. Well done!

Believe it or not, I totally loved going to the Hasidic area. We sampled so many different foods and we walked around so many different areas. I highly recommend this tour!

We had the best time thanks to our tour guide. He was so informative and being a native New Yorker, he knew his material. We will never forget our tour. The greatest. He even ordered on his own a cake for our anniversary. How considerate!!!!

This was an fabulous trip, despite the pouring rain. We were lucky enough to have a great guide to show just the two of us around, and we learned so much about the areas we passed through and the people who lived there. Our guide was a brilliant companion for the four hour trip, and even when one of the places we should have visited had been unexpectedly closed due to a family death, he improvised and found us somewhere else to visit. We have been to New York before and seen the standard tourist spots this was a chance to get away from the normal routes and see the real New York. Thank you very much for providing the opportunity.

We thoroughly enjoyed this tour from the first moment to the last. Although we had visited New York City on prior occasions, we had yet to venture into Brooklyn, even though it's only right across the river. After having gone on other food tasting tours in Europe, our expectations were pretty high. Needless to say, we were very pleased. The ethnic diversity and colorful flavors of the city really come alive on this tour. The variety of different foods we got to taste in the various neighborhoods were absolutely delicious and uniquely different. I particularly liked the Cuban sandwich in Sunset Park. At times it felt that we had traveled to another country. Overall, we were glad that we took this tour, as it was well planned out and there was enough food served that lunch was not necessary afterwards. Highly Recommended!

Our friendly, native New Yorker guide was full of great information about the city that only a native would know. He took us around and showed us all the great, little historical places that you would never find on your own. Getting to sample all of those different foods is a wonderful way to experience the local flavor. A perfect introduction to Brooklyn.
