This was an excellent activity, but the docent, Kurt Upton, made the experience exceptional. He was extremely well informed, funny and accomodating. My 25 yr old daughter thought so too.

Our guide, Darryl, was wonderful! We learned so much about not only the Market but the history of the entire Chelsea area and neighborhood. He was funny, engaging, and answered all questions. And the food! Tastes from so many different places, finishing up with a sit-down at an Italian restaurant?? Huh? Fantastic. We have done food tours in NYC before as well as Boston and this was one of the best.

We were in town for a wedding. My mother and I did the tour with KURT as our guide. He was SPECTACULAR! He engaged everyone, by name (16 on the tour) throughout. Extremely knowledgeable, shared recipes, and very entertaining. Will recommend to everyone... although not everyone can draw Kurt as their guide. He MADE the tour! *********************** these are stars!

My husband and I totally enjoyed our tour. Diana was a wealth of information. The vendors were very accomodating, and we will return to the market again. We had a fun group, and the tour was very informative.

My husband and I joined 14 other people on the Chelsea Mkt/Meatpacking Food Tour and enjoyed every bite. Even though it was raining as we left Chelsea Marketplace, it did not dampen the mood. Bob was our tour guide and was absolutely excellent! We thoroughly enjoyed this and will be signing up for another of the tours offered on our next trip to NYC.

Darryl had lots of funny anecdotes about the area to keep us entertained and the food was delicious, especially the lobster bisque. Don't eat before you go on this tour!

Food and Guide equally enjoyable

While our tastings were great it was our guide Kurt Upton that made the tour one of the best experiences of our trip to New York. High energy, hilarious one liners and an engaging host made the food that much more enjoyable. I would suggest the tour include some more variety as it was a bit heavy on the carbs.
