Cameron was a knowledgeable tour guide and took us to interesting eateries. My only complaint is that the description of the tour did not state that no tastings were included and all food needed to be purchased. It was fine and actually about the same cost of an $80 tour that included tastings at 5-6 places. Just a good idea for this to be stated in the tour description.

The Lower East Side food and neighbourhood walking tour was very informative. Our guide Conner certainly knew the history of the area. What a wealth of information he has, and all the best places to sample some delicious food along the way. Conner made the tour fun and interesting, definitely a must do tour!

The tour was ok. The guide was pleasant and knowledgeable. However, the tour company representative was inflexible, rude and difficult to deal with.
