You would not want to miss this tour. Be ready to indulge in all the sweet goodies that came with the tour. Our guide was excellent, very knowledgeable. She brought us to Bisous, Ciao luxurious and chic French macarons, Magnolia bakery, Molly's Baker, Gelato New York, Milk and Cookies Bakery and Baked by Melissa. My favorite was Bisous, Ciao. The macarons are fluffy in texture but dense in flavor and the balance of the cream and the cookie is excellent.
I have my 10 year old son who was overly ecstatic eating so much dessert for lunch. Our tour started at 12 p.m and ended about 2.00. So if you have kids with you, make sure they are comfortable walking around for 2 hours.
The meeting point is slightly vague, but you'll be okay if you take the subway and get off at the Union Square station.
In all, we extremely enjoyed the tour. We would not think about visiting these bakeries ourselves if we didn't reserve it with Viator.
Mallory gave us a fantastic tour of iconic and delicious NYC desserts. It was also a great way to see unique, less touristy neighborhoods. This is a must do!
the tour we booked said 6 outlets would be visitied but we only went to 5 of which one was closed for a private function so we have to wait out side. the guide did not have us booked on the tour even though we had booked previously and had confirmation. the guide was informitive after a slow start. we enjoyed the tour of Greenwich village but some of the cupcakes were a disappointment as we werent given a choice just had to have what was given which was not what was indicated on the description. thought was overpriced for what we recieved.
