About New York Jewish Food Tours

A Jewish food tour in New York eats through the community’s history — a guide orders the canon, explains where each dish came from, and takes you to the counters that still cook it properly.

Come hungry, and note that some kosher establishments close on Shabbat — Friday-evening and Saturday tours may route differently.

What Travelers Say

5/5 from 35 verified GetYourGuide travelers

"Aidan and Ethan did a great job on the theoretical and practical side of Bagelology. We did our own bagels, we learned a lot about the history of Bagels and the Bagel industry. At the end we could enjoy our products with some beverages and toppings provided. Given the fact that it was an intense 2h program and that we could take a lot of bagels home, I would say that the price is absolutely justified."

"Blown away by these two kind young women who really knew their stuff. We had a great time, got answers to all our questions and made some really delicious bagels. It was also a small group which created a nice personal atmosphere. Would definitely recommend this course! :)"
