| We all really had a tremendous time and really liked our tour guide Kurt. He was fun and energetic, but most importantly he knew what he was talking about and wasn't afraid to have fun doing it. It is well paced and you don't get tired and there is sufficient amount of time in between each tasting. The food is fantastic and the area that you explore is interesting to all age groups. All in all I would HIGHLY recommend this little jaunt to ANYONE. Whether you are a native New Yorker or just in town on a visit. It gives you a perspective of the city and history about it that you may not ever know if you don't go on the tour. Also if you go don't eat anything before. Enjoy!! |

| We enjoyed the tour and history of the Chelsea Market and surroundings very very much. Curt did a fine job and we later went back on our own for a second look around at what he had showed us. Enjoyedall of the food samples! Took lots of pictures of the buildings around Stella McCartney's store, the High Line, the bed and breakfast home and the buildings around Pastis. Good job, Curt! |

| Terrific! Guide was knowledgeable and engaging and obviously has developed warm relationships with the Market vendors. The food is wonderful--have only a light breakfast beforehand because you'll be eating the whole time!
Highly recommended! |

| I think the walking tours are a good way to see parts of New York that I don't know anything about. it a nice way to make you feel part of the new york experience instead of just being a tourist. A great activity to take out of town guest on. Gives you a good feel for the different neighborhoods. |

| I loved the market. would appreciate you telling me the
e-mail address of the inn we saw in the district. I think it was called "Rooms to Let. I would really like to see the district at night too when the clubs and restaurants are jumping.
Great time there in the market especially. We were able to do some shopping and the tour was nicely paced. We had a congenial group and enmjoyed the tour director. |

| This was my third food walking tour. This was fantastic. The marketplace and shops were amazing. The Lobster bisque was to die for. As before we ate until we were stuffed. The guide was great - I can't believe I lived in NY and never knew this area. I wish your company had more tours. |

| This was a really wonderful tour. Our guide "Kurt" was wonderful, animated, and well informed. He did a superb job of detailing the history of Nabisco building, the renovation process, and the current lease holder and how they fit into the vision of Chelsey Market place. In addition Kurt gave us a wonderful tour of the "Meatpacking District" and the current renovation of that area. He kept it moving without it feeling rushed and there was never a dull moment. I am not a "tour package" kind of gal but this was the only way for one to get a feel for the rich history and information on this exciting area in such a short period. I would recommend it to anyone and would do it again myself.
