Really enjoyed the behind the scenes info about the retailers in Chelsea Market. Diana did a good job of relaying the history of the Meatpacking District as well as the economic development progress in recent years.

Bob our guide for the day met us in Chelsea market and introduced us to the delights of the area whilst recounting the fascinating history of the "gastrofication" (sorry my made up word) of the District. From red velvet muffins to scallop and bacon chowder we were entertained and our taste buds tantalised. After leaving the amazing Chelsea market we proceeded up top via one or two top NY restaurants to the Hi- Line refurbishment, another example of what NY idealism and philanthropy can achieve. We strolled through the meat packing area which still retains many of the original features of the warehouses and finished our trip with a delicious Italian lunch at the appropriately named "Butchers" restaurant. All in all a fabulous tour, with an outstanding guide whose enthusiasm for food, history and architecture in equal portions was both filling and satisfying. He has definitely wetted our appetites for another food tour when we next make it back to NY. Julian, Jane, Eddie and Hilary - UK

We enjoyed all of the food tastings. This tour was more food and less walking than the previous tour we did in Greenwich Village, but equally enjoyable.

Kurt - our tour guide provided a very informative, enjoyable and entertaining tour of the Chelsea Marketplace and Meatpacking District. It was fun to hear the history of the area and to see how this area has transformed into the destination it has become. I would recommend this tour to anyone! We all had a good time and the food sampling was very enjoyable, but the history made it memorable. I will try other tours the next time I visit NY.
