The tour was fantastic. Our guide, Liz S. was so knowledgeable, personable, and overall fantastic. Every taste along the way was delicious and you could tell a lot of care went into curating such a cohesive tour. If you are thinking of doing a food tour - you should absolutely book it with Ahoy. I will definitely be returning!

Liz did a fantastic job of showing our group of 11 in and around the delicious streets of both Chinatown and Little Italy. She was informative as well as entertaining. I highly recommend this tour. It was time and money well spent.

Brilliant tour. Well organised and with our guide Lilly, who was as full of character as the food we tasted!
We had a great time learning about the background to China Town and Little Venice delivered by our guide who was really passionate about the subject.
The food chosen showed a broad spectrum of Chinese and Italian food well cooked and presented

We loved the history about the two locations (who doesn’t love eating and drinking while learning) along with the strategic choosing of food along the way. You do not need to eat before going as there is ample food on this tour. If you have a choice of guides, we highly recommend Hannah for her food and location knowledge!

What to expect
Discover two ethnic and delicious NYC neighborhoods, Chinatown and Little Italy on this three-hour food and walking tour. You will begin your tour in Chinatown at a popular tea house, enjoying a cup of tea with a classic Chinese pastry. As you explore Chinatown you will see the vibrant colors of this neighborhood, hear the Chinese language and feel immersed. The highlight of your visit to Chinatown is a traditional meal, seated in a fun and vibrant restaurant. In addition to all the food, your guide will lead you on a historical path of Chinatown revealing hidden secrets as you discover its historical landmarks. During this portion of the tour, you will be fascinated with stories of the past and Chinatown's beautiful culture. Lastly—before making your way over to Little Italy you will savor a famous Beijing style dumpling.
The second portion of the tour takes place in Little Italy. Once you enter Little Italy, you will see the bright décor and buzzing excitement. You will soon learn about Little Italy’s fascinating past by visiting historical landmarks and hearing colorful stories. From there your guide will lead you to explore the mom and pop specialty shops of Little Italy, samplings include fresh mozzarella with prosciutto, imported cheeses and olives and fresh pasta. Before saying arrivederci, your guide will take you to the well-known and historic pasticceria, Ferrara's Bakery and Café. This is where your guide will provide you with an in-depth description of the Italian American immigrants while you enjoy Ferrara's ever famous cannoli.
The final destination is in close proximity to Chinatown allowing you to continue to explore both neighborhoods on your own and retrace your steps. Each participant is provided a helpful handout at the beginning of the tour which includes a list of all the tastings, a map, a recommendation list and coupons.
