Traveler reviews
Wonderful food tour of Astoria
We had a great time with Ian touring Astoria. The food -- Greek, Brazilian, Palestinian, Colombian -- was so good and so varied. Ian was knowledgeable and made everything fun and easy. And the neighborhood is amazing. We visited a gorgeous Greek Orthodox church, enjoyed graffiti murals, and took selfies in front of George Costanza's parents' home. We left with satisfied appetites and a great appreciation for the hidden wonders of Astoria! Highly recommended.
Astoria’s Culinary Passport
I had an incredible time on this food tour of Astoria! Our guide, Ian, was fantastic—warm, knowledgeable, and clearly connected to the neighborhood. It was wonderful to see how genuinely he’s welcomed at each stop; his relationships with the local restaurants added a personal touch to every tasting. The food itself was a true world tour of Astoria’s diverse cuisine, and the portions were generous—come hungry! The route was also easy to reach by Subway, which made the whole experience even more convenient. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to explore Queens through its flavors.
One of the Best
We're pretty familiar with Manhattan, & wanted to do the boroughs. This was excellent - lot's of very good food. Fun walking in the local Astoria neighborhood. Highly recommend this tour - & especially our guide, Dante.
The best way to get a real NYC feel- take a Nice Guys tour!
This is our 5th tour with Nice Guys and the first on their Astoria tour…it was wonderful! The variety of food was great and as always, it was plentiful. Ian was fun and knowledgeable; he made us feel like his friends who he was just showing off the best of his neighborhood. Such a fun way to learn more about the unique areas of NYC. Make time to do a Nice Guys tour when you are visiting the city!
3rd tour but definitely not the last tour!
This was our 3rd time with Nice Guy Tours and certainly won't be our last! Ian was brilliant - excellent knowledge of the area and the history of Astoria, and more importantly for us, like Dante and Adam before him on previous tours, he was a really nice guy who made us all feel at ease. The name isn't just a gimmick! He was especially great and considerate about the extra needs of our youngest son who uses a wheelchair. Highlight for us were the arayes at Duzan and finishing off at The Tipsy Scoop for some ice cream! As always, we couldn't recommend these guys highly enough and we will definitely book again for the Lower East Side, which we haven't done yet but already looking forward to! Until next time!
