🌭 Is a Hotdog a Sandwich? 🥪

Welcome to the New York Sandwich tour - created by one of the most reviewed hosts online for food tours in New York City.

Join your fellow sandwich lovers on this fun, delicious, thought-provoking food tour as we feast on amazing sandwiches in New York City.

Together with the 'Sandwich Squad' you will visit foodie destinations that only NYC locals know about as we debate the question "is a hotdog a sandwich?" and answer it by eating different types of delicious sandwiches.

Ticket price is all inclusive of food. You will leave the experience FULL, but you won't eat an entire sandwich at each location. We like to share!

In addition to the delicious sandwiches, you will also hear stories about the history of the sandwich, and the people who make them. We'll also discover street art and learn about the history of New York too.

Come with an open mind, leave with a FULL stomach (and an answer to whether or not a hotdog, a burger or a taco is a sandwich).

Private tours available for corporate teams too. As experienced by Amazon, LinkedIn, Audible and more.

* Don't see a day/time that suits you? Ask me for a new time and I can try to accommodate.

**Sorry this tour is not for gluten-free or vegan diets. Vegetarians can be accommodated though!
