I chose Naidre's because it's a very visible place that everyone knows, and because it's very near the first three places I visit on the tour--not because I necessarily like Naidre's. (It seems incredibly superficial to judge a tour based on where it begins.) I invite all three of you to come on my next tour gratis and at the end you can tell me whether I know what I'm talking about. One catch: if I tell you three things you didn't know, you have to pay the $20.Brooks of Sheffieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18297071358029060908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36892255.post-79418781032016268712009-11-22T11:20:26.687-05:002009-11-22T11:20:26.687-05:00Just the fact that he chose in front of Naidres as...Just the fact that he chose in front of Naidres as the meeting spot, as opposed to, say, in front of Mazzola, speaks volumes.Rick Monacohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14501737332168601115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36892255.post-83370049520538562792009-11-12T14:50:01.687-05:002009-11-12T14:50:01.687-05:00Actually, Impa and Raised in CG,

One more than 1 occassion we've overheard "Professional Tour Guides" mis-speak, mis-quote and overall "miss" all the real bullet points about the area.<br /><br />Why not pay Katia to lead a group, knowing that she would probably donate have the money or at least spend it in our own neighborhood.Raised in Carroll Gardensnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36892255.post-21898404888881630942009-11-10T18:26:20.519-05:002009-11-10T18:26:20.519-05:00Great, pay some newbie $20.00 to hear 'history...Great, pay some newbie $20.00 to hear 'history' of carroll gardens west--yeah, right.impanoreply@blogger.com
