| We really enjoyed our tour of Chelsea Market and the Meatpacking area as we had never been before. Our tour guide, a Canadian who's a comedian with reddish hair....wish I could remember his name... was awesome! He was very informed and funny as well. We loved the extra touches he threw in like the tour of the brownstone and then the penthouse view from a local hotel just off 14th Avenue. I would definitely go back to this area to explore more. Loved it! The only thing that would have made this over the top would have been to have some glimmer inside the food network studios. The behind the scenes things are really interesting and sometimes thrilling for us, the viewer and supporter! Or a surprise visit with Mario Batali or Emeril would really set this apart from the rest and probably make it impossible to get tickets for! After the tour we went back to some of our favorite places, loved the tea house...the berry mix is awesome! We also went back to the lobster market and purchased steamed lobsters for us to dine on back at our rented apartment. It was just a great day and we would definitely seek out more tours like this.

| We all had a wonderful time on this tour. Cindy was an amazing guide giving us lots of history and "insider info". We even got to thank the developer of the Chelsea market for doing such a good job with the building!!
The tastings were delicious and varied and we were all stuffed when we left!!!
Can't wait to do another tour (the next time of Greenwich Village)!! I will make sure to ask for Cindy as a guide!!
As a veteren "foodie" I highly recommend this tour!!! |

| We had a wonderful tour with Curt. He was the perfect tour guide, smart, funny and knowledgeable about the subject. Just 15 minutes into the tour my friends were all saying how this was the perfect fun thing to do in NYC. The food was delicious and just the right amount for snacking and snacking! |

| This is the second time I've taken this tour and the third with the company. Each one has been better than the last. Everything is so well thought out and presented. The guides are extremely articulate as well as fun! Food was terrific. If it wasn't such a cold, windy day, we'd have gone back to the market to shop. Following the Greenwich Village tour, we've visited many of the restaurants numerous times. We can't wait to come back and gain a few pounds in the eateries on this tour as well. If you do no other tours in the city, take this one. A guaranteed winner! |

| My husband and I have been to NYC several times. We picked up a brochure in our hotel lobby on our last trip. We arranged for this food tour on this trip and were pleased with our choice. We learned so much more than we had hoped. We plan on arranging another food tour on our next trip. We passed the info on to friends who are coming to NYC. Thanks for the learning experience!! |

| We live a 3-hour car ride from New York so we try to visit at least once per year. This time we had adults and teenagers. This tour was really great! Our guide, Kurt, was very outgoing and personable. We highly enjoyed his tour and would definitely recommend him as a guide. Some of the teenage girls in our group did not like all the food, but most liked everything and were very full afterwards. We will definitely consider doing a different tour in the future! Thanks. |

| Everything from the guide to the food was very good. I liked the tour a Greenwich village better because we were outside more. |
