Great tour with variety of food
Great food tour. I enjoy taking food tours whenever I can, and I appreciate the variety of food in this tour. Zach was a great guide who shared the history of each restaurant. I appreciate that he also shared the history of each restaurant. The falafel was my fav but it was all great.
Response from the operator: Thank you for exploring with our team. We appreciate you sharing your experience at Secret Food Tours. We hope your travels bring you back!

Fun foodie tour in Greenwich Village
Zach was a great guide. The tour was a good mix of sightseeing, history and food with a variety of flavors. I didn’t love the pizza restaurant, but that was the only stop I thought was less than excellent, and some of my fellow foodies rated the pizza as their favorite stop so that’s probably just personal preference. Overall, worth the time and money if you’re not familiar with Greenwich village and want a fun way to learn about the neighborhood.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate you choosing Secret Food Tours and sharing the experience with fellow travelers. We hope to welcome you again!

Response from the operator: We had such a nice time with you on Secret Food Tours. It was fun introducing you to some of the local favorites and watching you discover new things. We’d be happy to have you back anytime!

BEST TOUR GUIDE EEEEEEVVVVVEEEERRRR!
Zach was absolutely the best! We truly didn’t want our foodie tour to end. He took us to so many fabulous places, and we loved every stop. What really stood out was how patient and accommodating Zach was. We kept discovering little spots along the way that we wanted to explore, and although we made sure to stay within his scheduled timeframe, he never made us feel rushed. Zach was also incredibly knowledgeable and shared so much fascinating history and information throughout the tour. You could tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and that made the experience even more special. We had such a wonderful time that it makes us want to come back again and again, and we’re already talking about trying some of the other tours! Thank you, Zach, for making our experience so memorable. We highly recommend him!!
Response from the operator: We loved seeing you settle in and enjoy everything the experience had to offer. Secret Food Tours is truly a relaxed way to meet the city through its everyday culture and local favorites. We’d be happy to have you with us again!

NYC: Greenwich Village Food Tour with 6 Locals Favorites Dishes: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New York.
How much does NYC: Greenwich Village Food Tour with 6 Locals Favorites Dishes cost?
+
Prices start at $97 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 NYC: Greenwich Village Food Tour with 6 Locals Favorites Dishes take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 NYC: Greenwich Village Food Tour with 6 Locals Favorites Dishes worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 93 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1,916 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in New York, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule NYC: Greenwich Village Food Tour with 6 Locals Favorites Dishes?
+
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 NYC: Greenwich Village Food Tour with 6 Locals Favorites Dishes suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book NYC: Greenwich Village Food Tour with 6 Locals Favorites Dishes?
+
Around 671 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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does NYC: Greenwich Village Food Tour with 6 Locals Favorites Dishes 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.
What is included in NYC: Greenwich Village Food Tour with 6 Locals Favorites Dishes?
+
Included: NYC Bagel with Creamy Schmear; Classic Falafel Bite; The Best NYC Pizza; Freshly Baked Cupcake; and Our Signature Secret Dish !. Not included: Hotel pickup and drop-off; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for NYC: Greenwich Village Food Tour with 6 Locals Favorites Dishes?
