New York Food Tour – West Village
Discover West Village in New York during this 3 hours food tour. Follow your guide and explore this neighbourhood of Greenwhich Village, NY. Its stairs, its small streets, its small sidewalks, its “small” townhouses, that’s the charm of West Village! The district bears its name incredibly well: here everything seems calmer, smaller, more peaceful. But be careful, we are still in New York! On weekends, the sidewalks of the village are literally taken by storm! In addition to its relaxed and family atmosphere, the village is a great place to walk around and will offer you a different view of New York, that of a city that also has neighborhoods on a more human scale, small shops and inhabitants who take their dogs out with a cup of coffee in hand. The village is a clever mix of chic and zen on a red brick background!

New York Food Tour – West Village – the destination
West Village is actually the western part of Greenwich Village. West Village was founded in 1916, but because of the bohemian lifestyle of its residents, the neighborhood was nicknamed Little Bohemia. You will be charmed by the artists’ houses. What makes this neighborhood unique is the fact that you won’t see the grid system that you see everywhere in New York. Finding your way around this neighborhood is not easy for tourists (or New Yorkers). You will need a city map. Or not, because West Village is the perfect place to wander around aimlessly. As you walk around, you’ll discover hidden gems. Visit the Jefferson Market Courthouse, for example, or try the famous cupcakes at the Magnolia Bakery. The High Line Park connects West Village to Chelsea, Hell’s Kitchen and Hudson Yards. And of course you will find the Meatpacking District.
