Greg is just such an interesting and knowledgeable tour guide, who personalizes the tour with his own families history in Greenwich Village and in the US. Lots of fun facts about the area, his family, many of the local owners, etc. We tasted delicious gelato, onion focaccia, cheeses, meatball, prosciutto, expresso and/or coffee, and ended with an amazing cannoli. We were a total group of 4 which was a nice size for such a wonderful & private tour. We saw other groups that were huge and it would have been so annoying to try & fit everyone into these cute shops & restaurants. We were so happy we booked such an intimate & smaller tour with Greg who lives & breathes Greenwich Village. It's his neighborhood & community which really comes thru on his tours. We also saw some lovely churches & a beautiful Italian Square. Thank you Greg it was a lovely afternoon even though the temperatures were quite cool you made it so enjoyable.

Hi there. Wow thank you for such a great review and the recommendation. In spite of the cold I'm glad we were able to warm up with some tasty Italian food. And I must agree with you those cannolis are amazing I am proud and grateful to share my family stories and this wonderful community with an Italian flavor. Happy Thanksgiving! Grazie Greg 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹

An excellent and thoroughly enjoyable tour. Greg is a very knowledgeable and friendly man who certainly enjoys his work. We were transported to Italian culture in New York from the last 150 years and the food was great. Thanks Greg.

We were the only ones on this tour, so it was basically a private tour. Greg is a true Italian New Yorker and has lots of stories and insider knowledge. The food was incredible. I’ve take a lot of tours and love this one because it was unique and authentic. Plus, anyone who books this tour gets Greg himself, so you don’t have to worry about variability in your tour guide (because not all tour guides are good!)

Hi ! Thanks for the great five star review. And yes, the food is incredible. We only frequent the best Italian food spots of Greenwich Village to make the tour so memorable. That along with history and sights Makes it a true NYC off off off Broadway event, but with food! Happy fall! Grazie, Greg
