Alana, the tour guide, was recommended by a friend who spent a week in NY recently. I saw the tickets available on Goldstar and was looking for something to do on a long weekend in NY. Even without the Goldstar deal, tickets are very reasonable compared to other culinary/walking tours. We met up with a group a 10 people. Alana is incredibly well-spoken, poised and knowledgeable. The weather was absolutely perfect, which also contributed to a great experience. The tastings were better organized than some of the tours I've participated in before - most likely because Alana commits to keeping the group small (I believe she said no more than 12 people). Our group of 3 was from California, but there were also some locals who tagged along and didn't know about these hidden gems in Chinatown and Little Italy. Needless to say, our entire group LOVED this experience, and we highly recommend it to anyone interested in history, a lovely stroll, and some delightful tastes of NY. Tips: join Goldstar Events for deals; don't eat too much before - there is plenty of food; and be sure to tip your tour guide for being awesome!

This was our first visit to NYC and we only had three short days to explore.... We found this tour on Goldstar and were so glad we did. The sites were amazing and made us feel like we were in another country. Alana Hoye, our tour guide and the owner of Ahoy New York Tours and Tasting, is very informative and brings history to life with colorful, detailed stories about Chinatown and Little Italy. During our tour we sampled various foods and deserts and had lunch at a Thai Restaurant. This walking/tasting tour is a must for everyone. Three locals were on our tour if that tells you anything. We plan to take this tour again in September when we return to NYC!

This trip is great fun and informative, even if you have visited Little Italy and Chinatown before. Alana knows a great deal of the history and you will also enjoy the food. I have walked around this area many times before, and read other guide books, but never learned about the location of the Five Points area. Alana's stories are entertaining, and were enjoyed by first time visitors as well as more traveled visitors.
