Tour of little italy/china town

Published on Feb, 2025

Seth was an amazing tour guide Dont eat any lunch or dinner if you are doing the tour. We started at 230 pm Had the full tour with something to eatfrom the story of little italy to chinatown. The knowledge Seth was able to relate to the local areas was amazing.linking in the food. We were well looked after by Seth. Seth even walked us to the subway making sure we got the right platform back to times square. Hope your guide is Seth!!

Full of food and knowledge

We had the most wonderful time with Seth. He gave us background info on NYC that we didn’t expect. We were so full at the end of the stop, make sure you come hungry!! Wear comfortable shoes bc it’s a lot of walking, but it goes by so fast!

Amazing authentic NYC experience

I’m an nyc local and really enjoyed the Lower East Side / Little Italy / Chinatown food tour! I got to check out several new spots, hitting up 8 food vendors total. We had quite a variety of food from savory to sweet - my favorite stops were the bialy, pizza and chashu pork buns! Our guide was fantastic too and provided a lot of information about the neighborhoods which was really cool to hear especially as a New Yorker. Highly recommend to locals and tourists!
