About this activity

The tour takes the traveler through the journey of NYC's LGBTQ Civil Rights and Historic sites accompanied with food tastings from some Greenwich Village's tastiest restaurants. Samples are subject to availability, and include: The Donut Pub's Black and White Cookie, Mighty Quinn's corn fritters and burnt ends with baked beans, a classic bagel and a smear, a sweet from Lilac chocolates, ending with creamy ice cream from Brooklyn's Van Leewuen. The tasty samples are bites, not a meal. Tour is limited to eight tourists, providing a more intimate experience.
