| Family in New York to celebrate a birthday. The tour of Chelsea Market and the surrounding area was lead by Todd. Not only did we learn about the history of the area, but we got to eat along the way!! Many family members went back after the tour AND the next day to try some of the restaurants. Would recomend either tour! |

| Got 3 hours? Treat yourself to a novel experience in the surprising meatpacking district of NYC. Curt was our amazing guide filled with humor and wit as he rattled off fascinating area tidbits and doled out tastey treats.
Our group ages ranged from college students and up. Included were fun food facts, New York history, celeb restaurants, designer boutiques, and - oh, that bar!!
LA loves NYC! |

| My husband and I own a time share in NYC, and we come once a year to the city. We try to plan one walking tour per visit. The Chelsea/ meatpacking area has interested me, so we booked this tour on line.Our tour group included a group of nine retired teachers, and we were right at home with them, since we are educators ourselves. Kurt was fabulous, and we enjoyed the narration of the history of the area. The food was authentic, and the weather was perfect.
Next time we will definitely do the Greenwich Village tour. |

| We loved the tour. My husband, son (age 11) and a friend from Greenwich, Conn. found the tour to be very interesting. Todd not only provided information about food but has a great knowledge of the history of the Chelsea Market and the Meat Packing District. We will definitly visit the area on our next trip to NYC.

| We had a great time on our Meat Packing District tour. A good portion of the time was spent in Chelsea Market, but that's a good thing. I never realized how many great/interesting and yummy places are in there. It was great to learn about the history of the area, especially since I live here and visit it often. This tour made me realize how little I knew about my own city. The outdoor portion around the Meat Packing area was very interesting and I will definetly be returning to the area with a different perspective.
Our tour guide was great too! I would definetly do this again! |

| Curt was a wonderful guide and very entertaining. My mom is over 60 and loved him. She thought he was great.
I am from Atlanta and have done the Greenwich Village tour twice. Your tours are very entertaining and a break from the ordinary. The Chelsea Market tour was great. The food portions were very large and the different types of food were great. We have said on all occasions that your tours are the best part of our vacation (next to Canal street, just kidding).
Thanks.
I hope you have another new one next time I visit the Big Apple. |

| We both highly enjoyed the tour. I am a freelance food writer, so I signed up to taste all the goodies at Chelsea Market. The food was excellent, and so plentiful that I had to start rationing it! My boyfriend loves facts and history and he enjoyed the food as well as the many myriad details about the market itself and the surrounding neighborhood. Three hours into the tour, we were still interested and as enthusiastic as we were at the start. Highly recommended! |
