The sites were amazing and made us feel like we were in another country. Our tour guide was very informative and brought history to life with colorful, detailed stories about Chinatown and Little Italy. During our tour we sampled various foods and desserts and had lunch at a Thai Restaurant. This walking food tour is a must for everyone. Three locals were on our tour if that tells you anything. We plan to take this tour again in September when we return to New York City!" For more info, visit Cool Things to do in New York.
