    Yummy Walking Food Tour
    Lucy_T, May 2024
    Enjoyed walking around the neighborhoods and tasting great food! Amanda was great with the group, leading us around and talking to us the whole way!
    Response from Host, May 2024
    Thank you for joining us, Lucy! Amanda is indeed wonderful with our guests, and we're glad she made your experience memorable by sharing her knowledge and enthusiasm throughout the tour. We hope to see you again soon on another culinary adventure!
    Such a Fun Tour!!!
    Tiffany_W, Apr 2024
    I highly recommend a food tour through little Italy and Chinatown. Our guide Amanda was very knowledgeable on the eateries and history of the area. Everything we ate was wonderful. The surprise food at the end was different and delicious.
    Response from Host, May 2024
    Thank you for recommending us, Tiffany! Don't forget, we're spread across 60+ cities worldwide - so there's always another culinary adventure waiting for you.

    Olga_M, Apr 2024
    Great stops on the tour and wonderful food. Amanda was amazing - welcoming and accommodating. She was very knowledgeable and fun!
    Hannah was a great guide!
    Eric_L, Apr 2024
    Hannah was a great guide through Chinatown and little Italy! She started great information, kept a great pace, and helped engage my pre-teen daughters. The food was excellent - especially the dumplings and the cheesecake!
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    We truly appreciate your positive feedback, Eric, and are delighted that you enjoyed your journey with Hannah on our NYC tour. Thank you for being a part of our culinary adventure!
    Great food without the tour
    Maria_V, Apr 2024
    The food and the tour guide were a 5. The “tour” was a 1. This the average rating. Our tour guide was very organized, attentive, and pleasant. The food choices were great, a good verity, and food kept on coming. However, tourists don’t do food tour just to eat. We’d go out for that. People expect to learn something new, to hear some history about the neighborhoods and the people who made these foods famous, some fun facts, some stories or legends. We had none of that. Just sampling foods. That’s the part that lagged for us big time!
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, Maria. We genuinely appreciate your positive remarks regarding both our knowledgeable guide and the diverse selection of delectable dishes we share on our Chinatown and Little Italy tours. It's wonderful to hear that you thoroughly enjoyed the culinary aspect of our tour. On the other hand, we completely understand your perspective on the importance of cultural and historical insights during a food tour. While our primary focus is indeed on the culinary experience, we equally aim to provide enriching narratives that complement the flavors of each neighborhood. Our guides are usually upbeat and excited in sharing interesting details about these vibrant neighborhoods, while moving from venue to venue. We want nothing but the best experiences and interactions for our guests. We'll continue to work with our guides to make future experiences even more engaging and fun. This would surely be beneficial as our team looks to deliver the best food tours at every instance. Your feedback is invaluable to us as we continuously strive to enhance our tours. We hope you'll consider giving us another chance to exceed your expectations on a future visit. If you’d like to discuss this further, don’t hesitate to reach out to us at info@secrettours.com.
    Wonderful tour!

    Wonderful Walk through NYC
    Cheryl_B, Apr 2024
    David was an absolutely amazing tour guide. It was pouring rain here in NYC but he still made sure that we saw a lot of different elements of Chinatown, Little Italy and Nolita neighborhoods. He was super informative, full of history and excited about the information he shared. We loved every minute of this walk through these areas. He was very engaged with everyone on the tour and the tastings were amazing. We loved every single bite and imagine that in great weather, this would be even better!
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    Thank you so much for your kind words, Cheryl! Our guides are always committed to providing engaging and informative tours rain or shine, and we're glad David's enthusiasm and knowledge shone through. We can't wait to welcome you back for another tour!

    Great way to see the unique parts of the city. The host is amazing, food is even better. Make sure to come hungry and ready for some new food adventures.

    As you mentioned, arriving hungry and open-minded enhances the adventure - we couldn't agree more. Thanks for joining us, Jonathon, and we look forward to welcoming you back on another Secret Food Tour!
    Excellent tour!
    Eric_P, Mar 2024
    Emily was an excellent guide. She had a wealth of knowledge and did a great job sharing it with our group. The food stops were good and some I made note to go back to. I especially liked the "pineapple bao" which was a pork stuffed bao.
    Response from Host, Mar 2024
    Thank you for your kind words, Eric! It's great that you found our food stops enjoyable and even discovered some new favorites. Come join us again to explore more culinary delights.
    Hannah Banana - Best Tour Guide Ever
    Victoria_W, Mar 2024
    Hannah was a brilliant guide from start to finish, it was a soggy wet day but she did an amazing job of keeping us all upbeat as we went on our adventure! All of the food was amazing! Things we would have never naturally picked, with a spattering of local knowledge and a bit of history. Honestly one of the best trips we have done in a long time, worth every penny! Come with an empty stomach as you will be stuffed by the time you finish.
    Response from Host, Mar 2024
    Thank you for your glowing review, Victoria. Our team makes it a point to provide memorable experiences filled with delicious food and cultural immersion, and we're delighted that we hit the mark. We can't wait to welcome you back!
