| My husband and I had a great time on this tour. Our tour guide was extrememly knowledge, professional, fun, and very enthusiastic. We will definitely do more tours with this group. The foods that were provided were absolutely delicious and the variety was amazing. We would definitely go back to the Chelsea Market as a result of this tour. It was also really nice to walk around and learn more about the surrounding area. We would recommend this tour to everyone, it was truly a great way to spend a few hours in NYC! (One additional comment, one guest on the tour had a food allergy and we were very impressed with how the Tour Guide arranged for special food items for her, it was extremely well done.) Thanks!

| It was myself and my two adult daughters that took the tour. Our guide was extremely entertaining and knowledgable. He made sure everyone was involved and not left out during the tour. He was accomadating to every ones needs. We are considering another tour over the holidays and would like to make sure we get the same guide.
The food was fantastic and extremely diversified. Something to please every one. There was a young boy, 13 years old with his dad. He was enjoying himself just as much as the adults. I worried about bringing my 11 year old grandson, now I wouldn't hesitate to bring him with us over the holidays. |

| If you are a true foodie, you will enjoy this tour as much as my daughter and I did. Curt, our guide, was well informed, upbeat, and gave personal service, with attention to detail. The information provided about the venue really helped us to have a feel of the renovation of a former abandonded factory area, along with the interesting beginnings of many of these now well established gourmet shops, bakeries and food purveyors. We were with a group of 16 people, Curt made sure we each were given special attention. I have difficulty walking long distances, and once Curt saw me find a seat near each stop to rest, he made it a priority that he helped me to find that needed place to rest as we proceeded along the way - without making me feel like I had a spotlight on my issues. (Refreshing to find a detail oriented person with so much tact.) I would highly recommend this tour to you and your friends. You will be lucky to have Curt for your future guide. ( No, I am not his grandmother, neighbor or girlfriend, just a well satisfied tour attendee.)
Thanks for a great trip through Chelsea.

| My husband and I really liked our guide Bob Gelber. We especially loved all the eating. The tour was very well planned and organized - every place we stopped was prepared for us. It was a perfect combination of food & history. We would highly recommend this tour. |

| Darryl was an excellent guide. He kept his good humor throughout the tour, which included many delicious tastes. The addition of the HighLine and Gansevoort Hotel really made the experience special. It was awfully hot in Chelsea Market, though. |

| This was the second food tour I have taken---the first one being the Grenwich village one. I loved learning about another area of NYC. the food was fabulous! We had a very enthusiastic leader. I plan to take another tour the next time I am in NYC! |
