Extraordinary - I really enjoyed the tour. Not only eating exquisite donuts and learning about their origin but also thanks to the excellent guide Sergio I learned a lot about the entire East Village area, its history and also trivia. Sergio is an excellent guide, he knows a lot and is passionate about his work, he conveys it very well and is essential for a good tour. I would do it again. Highly recommended!
