It was an awesome tour! My two daughters enjoyed it as well. We visited NYC for the first time and were amazed at the wonderful time we had. The beautiful places we visited were a highlight of our trip.

Vince was very knowledgeable. We were the only 3 on the tour. He gave a great deal of history about the area. We would have preferred cupcake shops that had places to sit rather than eating outside on the street. Molly’s was the best!

The best part of the tour was our guide Vince who was very knowledgeable about NYC history and told us many interesting stories. He had a great sense of humor too. We passed by many historical/pop culture landmarks. The cupcakes were just a bonus - I would consider this more of a history tour than a cupcake tour. We didn’t mind that two of the cupcakes were mini because by the end we were so sugared out. It was a fun experience but I received this as a gift otherwise I don’t think it’s worth paying the full price.

Vincent, our tour guide, was a wealth of information and a fantastic storyteller. We loved walking through the beautiful West Village hearing about the early days of Bob Dylan, Jimmy Hendrix, Bruce Springsteen, Tony Bennett, Stonewall Riots, Death location of Alexander Hamilton, "Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" locations and on and on. If I had to critique this tour at all, it was only that the cupcake part of the tour was limited to three cupcake stops (two of which were only mini cupcakes) and the others were cookies and creme puffs. Maybe change the name of the tour instead of making it all about the cupcakes...but again, overall a great experience.

My grandchildren enjoyed listening to the stories about the various cupcake stores and how they originated. They enjoyed walking through the streets and seeing the sites of the city.
Johnnie was a very pleasant and patient tour guide as my grandchildren were also distracted by looking at all the shops we passed too. My only recommendation is that the kids do not have to eat cupcakes at every place. Perhaps they create mini-ones for these tours.

Our tour guide was amazing! Great tour for not only being able to try out different sweets around nyc, but also for seeing a lot of cool historical/pop culture sites.

This tour is a scan. No tour guide showed up at the meeting place. The people at the shop in the meeting area had no idea of a cupcake tour. We four paid for the tour and no one showed. I’ll dispute the charge with my credit card company. What a ripoff.

Save your money. You would be better off just going to cupcake shops on your own. None of the shops seemed to be expecting our group of 10. The guide basically just bought a sample pack at each store and we ate outside down the street as the stores were too crowded. No space reserved for our tour. No where to sit down ever. The build your own cupcake wasn't as special as it sounds. The tour started late. We booked for 3pm and were informed in the morning that the guide would be running late and it needed to start at 3:30. We had already booked another event at 5:30pm in Brooklyn and the late start threw off our day. And the company contacted me through WhatsApp from a Philippines number - very strange - this not a local company and has no idea what goes on in NYC. Pacing of the tour was off - we had 1 mini-cupcake in the first 45 minutes, did a lot of walking around, and then 3 in a row. It was not all cupcakes. One stop was a chocolate covered expresso bean (neither my wife or son like coffee so that was a waste). One stop was an Italian cookie. We had 1 full size cupcake in 6 stops - we skipped the last one because it was running late. The guide was fine and gave us some good history along our walk but this simply missed the mark as a cupcake tour.

Started late, I was informed the night before via a bad phone call and did not quite hear (was out to dinner) the time change. There was no follow up email or message.
The guide was great at knowing the city and quite entertaining with facts, but the bakery stops were not at all welcoming or interactive. They gave us a sample and we walked out. Only 1 location was good, where we built a cupcake.
I would never suggest this to anyone.
