A Walking Food Tour
Quick Details
Join us for a culinary journey as we travel through 3 NYC neighborhoods, Nolita, Little Italy and Chinatown. On this tour you will enjoy six hearty and dynamic tastings that represent six cultures– not to mention an opportunity to enjoy a glass of wine. Our knowledgeable tour guides will entertain you with exciting stories and secrets of the area’s past and its ever-changing food scene. Do you like learning about crime and police stories? This tour reveals the “real life” Law and Order of these neighborhoods, including the famous former NYC police headquarters.
This tour is unique from our signature tour in that we explore multiple cuisines from around the world. On the Tasty Global Bites tour tastings will include foods from Spain, Israel, Italy, France, Vietnam, and China. Some of the cuisine you will enjoy has been a part of the neighborhoods for several years– while many of the restaurants have recently become a part of the ever-evolving NYC dining scene. Start the tour by sinking your teeth into a traditional Spanish churro, followed by imported and delicious French cheeses. From there you will indulge delicious falafel, a dish of scrumptious pasta with an option to pair with the perfect glass of wine. During the last leg of the tour, we’ll taste crunchy and savory Vietnamese spring rolls and finally a yummy dessert from a popular Chinatown dessert spot.

Food tasting locations can change without notice.
While we welcome children on our tours, our tours are mainly for a mature audience in that we taste a variety of cuisine and dive deeply into history and culture. Sometimes we find that children of a young age may become easily disengaged. Although we are a family-friendly tour company, please take care in knowing if your child will enjoy the experience prior to booking. We find that children 13 years old and older enjoy our Tasty Global Bites Food Tour.
We walk no more than ½ a mile at a moderate pace. During the three hours, there are many standing breaks, so we aren’t always walking. There are a few opportunities to sit throughout the tour.
Although we would like to try to cater to your wheelchair and stroller needs, it takes time for us to coordinate due to the geographic limitations of the area. With notice, sometimes we can accommodate your needs.
Ahoy New York Tours & Tasting does its best to accommodate any dietary restrictions and allergies. Please alert us upon booking your tour/dining experience.
Our guide Liz was wonderful, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable. We loved learning the history of Mulberry street and the surrounding area. The food and places we visited were wonderful and really diverse.
– Albert D. | TripAdvisorWe took this tour in April 2019 with Liz as our guide and I can't imagine how our experience could have been better. The tour took us through the diverse restaurants that’s populate the Mulberry Street. Not only did we get to taste our way through them, but we also learned about the history of what made each neighborhood unique and we visited areas that I never would have dreamed of visiting without a local's perspective. We saw a part of NYC that I don't know if I ever would have experienced without this tour. Honestly, I wasn't looking forward to the tour - it was my husband's pick and I'm not an adventurous eater so I was more than a little worried about what we would try. I didn't need to worry whatsoever, Liz explained each dish and everything was great. It was fun, educational, and super filling - we will definitely be doing another tour in the future!
– Danielle W. | TripAdvisorWe had an unforgettable cultural and food journey to celebrate my daughter's 16th birthday. We had a private tour led by Liz. She was great with the kids and adults. She shared some NYC history, but also kept it light so the teens didn't get bored. We tried a dessert I never knew existed (I won't ruin the surprise), but can't live without now. Thanks Liz for the great day and Alana for helping us plan!
