| The tour gave us a wealth of information as well as lots of suggestions of places to eat and places to return too. |

| I am British living in new York and I thought i'd done most manhattan areas with visiting family and friends - but this was fab! Sam, our guide, was informed and humerous, the area was a hidden bustling hub of Manhattan that was well worth discovering and a great tour for the winter months as much of it is indoors. Will recommend to the expat community of Westchester county - and theres lots of us! |

| I toured Chelsea Market on Saturday, June 3, 2006. The guide was funny, informed and a pleasure to spend time with. He kept us on schedule but also allowed us roaming time. As for the market itself, it's beyond words. I loved every tasting and felt welcomed along the way. I would highly recommend this tour to locals & tourists who love good food. |

| We visit NY annually as a holiday treat and decided to try this tour. The history of the area and the wonderfully delicious and diverse food kept your interest for the entire 3 hours. We can't wait to see what Chelsea Market and the Meat Packing District looks like in a few years this is an up and coming area. If you are a Food Network junky this is a must they tape the shows upstairs and if you watch Emeril he always references shopping downstairs at the market. Amy's breads has a sourdough chocolate bread too die for! We were so full by the time the tour ended that we did not eat dinner until late in the evening. Cindy our tour guide was outstanding her knowledge endless, great sense of humor and she was helpful even after the tour ended. Well worth the money! |

| I really really enjoyed the tour but my one recommendation would be that you have materials to hand out to other passersby that were interested in the tour. We ended up having to give our own brochures to other people that weren't on the tour but interested in it. It would be great if the tour guide had some brochures to hand out to advertise the tours. |

| My sister and I took the tour together on our visit from California. It was one of the highlights of our first trip to New York. We loved the Chelsea Market and Kurt's knowledge and stories were amazing. He showed us so many things during the three hour tour including a visit to a friend's bed and breakfast for dessert. The Chelsea Market and Meatpacking District are fascinating and the tour was worth every penny. The food stops and tastes were wonderful. |

| I really liked the tour. Our guide (Kurt) was great. Lots of yummy food. My Dada was visiting from out of town, and he loved it as well. What an interesting neighborhood! |

| This was my second Chelsea Market Food Tour - Diane was our tour leader this year and she was terrific - knowledgeable and entertaining.
The tour is well organized and so informative, not to mention delicious! Very fun sampling the offerings from the best vendors. |
