Enjoy a history and gastronomy lesson in this varied, international culinary tour of Brooklyn. Take a trip back in time and around the world and see a part of New York City that many don't even know exist!

Your guide, an experienced and knowledgeable native New Yorker, will lead you through Brooklyn's most dynamic areas where you will get to sample some of the incredible local cuisines that makes New York so unique.

Begin in the historic West Village, the past and present home to some of the City's most influential residents, and then venture across the Williamsburg Bridge to Brooklyn, where the main portion of your tour will take place.

Our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable about the area and its history. He made the tour very entertaining and the food come alive. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone and any other food tour that he is guiding.

  1. How will we get to Brooklyn?
    Escorted transportation to Brooklyn via car or bus is included in the price of this tour. You'll be met by your guide in Greenwich Village and then will be escorted to Brooklyn. Along the way, you'll be passing through some historic areas of lower Manhattan which may include a surprise "bonus" food tasting.
  2. Is this also a walking tour?
    Yes, although we do spend some time traveling to Brooklyn by bus or car, you'll be walking through some of the great areas described in the tour.
  3. Is there food and drink served on the tour?
    Yes. We'll be sampling delicious food from various establishments on the tour. A cold bottle of spring water is provided to every guest at the start of the tour.
  4. Is the price of all the food included in my ticket purchase.
    Yes. The price is all inclusive of all the delicious food tastings that you'll be eating on the tour.
  5. How much food is served on the tour?
    There's plenty of stops for tastings on the tour. For most people there is enough food that lunch afterwards is not necessary.
  6. Are there vegetarian options on the tour?
    Yes, there are only a few tastings that involve meat on the tour. The vegetarian options are just as delicious.
  7. Is this also considered a sightseeing tour of Brooklyn?
    Without a doubt, Yes! We cover many different and unique areas that are off the beaten path and the photo opportunities will be priceless. Be sure to bring your camera!!
  8. Do we just walk around and sample food?
    Absolutely not! Aside from sampling delicious food, you will also experience life in the various neighborhoods that we visit. The tour is fully narrated by your guide, who will discuss the history, culture, architecture, entertainment offerings, and of course off-the-beaten-path food establishments.
  9. Does this tour have anything to offer a native New Yorker?
    Definitely! Many of our attendees live right here in New York City. Locals often attend to learn about the neighborhood and the city in which they live. We mainly stay off the beaten path, and thus avoid being consumed by crowds of tourists
