Description

Food On Foot Tours are unique authentic local experiences that are very different from standard food tours. They are a ten-time TripAdvisor Award Winner, earning the Certificate of Excellence and Travelers’ Choice Awards from 2011-2020.

On this Food On Foot Tour, you’ll visit real non-tourist New York neighborhoods while stopping at small places where the people who live there eat. Many tours bring you to places because they are receiving money back from the stops. Not this tour. They only take you to places they like but their stops feed you and they love it!

The tour is a quality fresh food eating tour and not the standard sampling tour. You’ll choose what you like at every stop and how much. Their tours are known for being relaxed in a larger group format where you not only see and feel the real New York but you meet and mingle (or not) with others from around the world. Because you choose what you like all their stops are a surprise and they know from over years of tours that it’s much more fun that way. The tour replaces a meal. And because they care about your whole trip, they help out with unbiased restaurant recommendations to help you eat great and save money for the rest of your stay.

Many of their 3,000+ excellent reviews say to take their tour as early in your stay as possible to get the most out of tours and the recommendations they provide.

Where do Food On Foot Tours go?

Each tour covers one or more neighborhoods, most that which tourists usually don’t visit. If you’re passionate about what you eat, what you see, and who you meet you’ll love being part of a Food On Foot Tour. You’ll enjoy multiple cuisines on each tour.

How long is this tour?

This tour is about three and a half hours in duration.

What makes Food On Foot Tours special?

This is a true eating tour, not a sampling tour. You purchase your own food and although they make recommendations so you get to enjoy what you like, not just what somebody gives you. In addition, all the stops are surprised stops that they think that’s a big part of the fun. You are guaranteed that you will be stopping at the general area of Midtown Manhattan. Vegetarians/Vegans are welcome but should notify the tour before the start of the adventure.

Do we know where we’re stopping?

You don’t. A big part of the fun of a Food On Foot Tour is the anticipation of each stop. There are usually many choices on a tour and you do not have to eat at every location.

How much will the food cost?

That depends on your appetite and the number of people in your personal group. Guests usually average $15 to $20 per person for food on this tour not including beverages. Since the tours are designed to replace a meal (or even two) this is very reasonable for New York prices.

What do I need to bring?

Along with a MetroCard Bus & Subway Pass (available at all subway stations) please wear casual clothing and comfortable walking shoes. You must show up at the tour meeting point with your MetroCard. They encourage you to bring water with you, especially during the summer months.

Are children welcome and do they need tickets?

Children are welcome but you must make a smart decision about bringing kids along. Since they utilize the subway, stairs are usually part of every tour. There is lots of walking plus subway riding and some ethnic cuisine stops. If this isn’t something the kids would enjoy please come without them. If you bring kids and they cause a delay the tour will have to move on without you. Please be aware of this because tickets are NON-REFUNDABLE. Children who can walk need a ticket. Small children who are carried or are in a stroller do not need tickets.

What if I cannot find the meeting point?

Since all the tours are surprise tours they cannot divulge the stops so you must meet the tour at the starting point. After you purchase your tickets you will receive a detailed confirmation with very specific meeting point information. Carry the confirmation with you and they will be at the meeting point by the start time. They urge you to be at the location 15 minutes before the start of the tour. If you are lost they provide simple IF YOU ARE LOST instructions. Please use these instructions right away if you are lost. Meeting point information is also available on their main phone line by pressing #3. Live operators are not available to help you so please have all the necessary information with you.
