NYCベーグルツアー : Midtown's Iconic Bagels

What a brilliant tour! Sam gave us so much information all about the history of bagels and could answer all of my very niche questions. We got to try several bagels at each place and had time to see everything and ask all of our questions. We went into the bakery part of the last place and got to see the mixing and rolling process. I’m a baker so I know a lot about the baking side but I learned a lot and thoroughly enjoyed it. 11/10

Why are there not more bagel tours in NYC?? Probably because they can't be better than this one! It was not just eating bagels and trying new flavors (there was a lot of that), but there was a lot of history with bagels, bagel gangs, and about the bagel makers themselves. I am a history buff and this tour blew me away because I didn't expect that much history! Aiden was a great tour guide and let our small group have a say in a few flavors of cream cheese. I have always wanted to try a sweeter one but have been scared to, since savory is my thing. Luckily I got to try a bunch of flavors- which none of which I disliked. If you love (or just like) bagels, and are interested in some NYC history, this is for you! You even learn how bagels are made and what sets some apart from others. I would definitely do this again!

Really fun experience. Will was a very good tour guide and knew his stuff! Highly recommended if you’re in New York and want to try some great bagels. We got to see how they made all the different bagels and try a lot of different styles, fillings etc

Very informative! It was so interesting to hear about the history and culture of our friend, the bagel. Our guide was engaging, friendly, and well-informed. I would like to do the tour again and bring more friends and family. Don’t eat lunch before you come!

Loved taking the bagel tour and highly recommend it. Learned the history of bagels, how they are made and, most importantly, you get to try a variety bagels from each shop you visit.

Such a fun tour, informational and all the food was delicious! We had a great time and our group was able to keep most everyone happy with the large selection of bagels and schmears. I would highly recommend this tour

Aidan our tour guide was fantastic! Very knowledgeable and entertaining. Would highly recommend this tour

A huge thank you to Reva and Sam for an unforgettable experience! Reva’s expertise in bagel-making was truly inspiring. She guided us through each step of the process with patience and enthusiasm, making sure everyone felt confident in shaping and baking their bagels. Her practical tips were incredibly helpful, and the finished bagels were absolutely delicious! Sam’s enthusiasm for the history of bagels was equally engaging. His storytelling brought the origins and evolution of this iconic treat to life, adding fascinating cultural context that made the experience all the more enriching. The blend of hands-on learning and captivating history made the workshop both educational and fun. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a unique and enjoyable culinary adventure. Thank you again for such a memorable time!

Classic NY experience is getting bagels, but this tour helped us try various bagel shops and combinations. Two of the stops had long lines, but the guide ordered ahead of time and we got to try different combos of bagels and cream cheese without getting too full. We also learned a lot about the bagel history from our guide Aiden. It was a great fun tour. Come hungry!

This class changed my life! And I mean that literally! I fell in love with bagel making and New York Bagels. I came back from my trip and am starting a bagel business. Definitely recommend to anyone who loves food!
