So much fun! Loved the history behind Williamsburg ... being from out of town, this was informative and fun. Great food as well. Our guide was super knowledgeable and kept the event moving and interesting. The first stop was for a bagel, and it was one of the best I've had. Best Pizza was the BEST. Loved going to the Polish market ... the perogies were delicious; And being a Texan, I am super picky about my BBQ. Mabel's Smokehouse was the real deal. When you don't need to add sauce to BBQ, you know it's good!!!

Awesome tour covering a variety of foods and history of the area!
Lara was an amazing tour guide and has 17 years of experience living in New York. As someone who currently lives in New York, I came on this tour to learn more about the surrounding neighborhoods, and I was not disappointed - this tour was truly built like a local! Our group was small - included four attendees, with two of the other attendees also local to New York, who had attended other Like a Local Tours. We stopped by six different food spots and Lara showed us new hidden gem food spots, told us about historical context of different buildings, and pointed out many murals dotting Williamsburg's streets.
10/10 would recommend going on this tour and trying out other Like a Local Tours!
