An original and unforgettable experience!
The food tour in Greenwich Village was really a great experience. We had a great time with our guide who taught us a lot about the neighborhood and New York in general! The tastings were very nice and these are places we would not have stopped. I really loved it and recommend this service!

Perfect from A to Z
Julie's food tours are the best way to discover New York City! Everything is covered: historical anecdotes, cultural visit, highlights... all punctuated by Julie’s kindness, gentleness, and communicative joie de vivre. I strongly advise you to call on her, whether you are travelling alone, as a couple, or with family!

Visit New York without taking this food tour, unthinkable!
Exceptional moment that we did not necessarily expect. With a kind guide, very nice / friendly and who knows her subject perfectly, we spent a little more than two hours in the blink of an eye! As for the delights we have discovered, this is not explained, we must discover them for ourselves. Remember not to eat before the food tour!

Do not hesitate to make this taste and cultural discovery
Superb discovery of Greenwich Village with 2 excellent tastings: Janie's Life cookies and Pop up Bagels bagels. A big ❤️ move for Julie Guedj, Taste The Apple's Food Tour guide, who was very available to listen and very cultured on New York.
Response from the operator: Merci Cecile pour ce retour!! <3

Why this scores 72
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
American Specialties Gourmet Tour in Greenwich Village: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New York.
How much does American Specialties Gourmet Tour in Greenwich Village cost?
+
Prices start at $95 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in New York usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does American Specialties Gourmet Tour in Greenwich Village take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in New York is not rushed.
Is American Specialties Gourmet Tour in Greenwich Village worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 49 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in New York, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule American Specialties Gourmet Tour in Greenwich Village?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is American Specialties Gourmet Tour in Greenwich Village suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book American Specialties Gourmet Tour in Greenwich Village?
+
Around 17 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in New York can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in New York and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does American Specialties Gourmet Tour in Greenwich Village start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central New York within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in New York?
+
New York has more bookable experiences than any other city on Outty, and the quality spread is brutal. Observation decks are commoditised, so we score them on timed-entry reliability and sunset slots. Food tours and borough walks are where the ranking really separates operators, and the top scores in the city all come from small-group guides. On Outty we rank every New York experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include NYC Bus Tour of Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens: Art, Food & Sports, Half-Day Bus Tour of NYC Top Highlights, SoHo, Little Italy, and Chinatown Walking Tour in New York. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit New York?
+
September to early November, and late April through June. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in New York?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

+
