Beginning with our enthusiastic and informed tour leader our time spent on the Chelsea Market and Meatpacking district tour was fabulous. We were treated to wonderful tastings while we were instructed about our surroundings.

We were a group of five adults who live in Queens, New York and decided we wanted to enjoy our City as tourists. We had a really fun day and to see the changes in the area was unbelievable. Our tour guide Cindy was very informative and the sampling of the food was plentiful. All in all we had a very pleasant afternoon. Would recommend it to all.

This tour was exceptional! From the food served, the excellent organization of the tour to the extremely knowledgeable tour guide - it was Four Stars all the way! After taking this tour I plan to take all of the tours offered by Foods of NY. Being a native New Yorker, you don't learn this type of stuff from just living here... take the tour!

We loved this tour. There were four of us ranging from age 40-60. The market itself is super but having a guide to educate us made it all the better. Cindy was Super!!!! She was very organized, friendly and funny. We loved her! The tastings were great! We loved the "meat packing district" so much that we spent a couple of days there. We had dinner and wine at two of Cindy's recommendations. We also went back to the market and purchased food to cook dinner in our apartment one evening. We will be back and we will also recommend this tour to friends.

The entire experience was fantastic! I drove a cab in NY, and was still impressed with the depth and breadth of knowledge shown by our guide. She was enthusiastic, informative, fun, and highly attentive. A definite recommendation for natives, tourists, and even anyone visiting from New Jersey.

We did the Greenwich Village tour several years ago and when we knew we were going back to NY I looked the tours up again. It lived up to all expectations and everyone that went with us and that I had reccomended it too were also thrilled. The details our guide told us about the market and the foods were so interesting. And of course the food is unlike much of what we can get in Florida. Kurt, our guide, was great. He was funny and made the tour fun to go on and you didn't realize you were learning anything. If you ever create a new tour, we will be on the watch for it! B ill and Carol Marshall

This was a great tour. The guide was personable and had a great sense of humor. He knew a lot about the area and about food and dining. Everything we sampled was delicious, and we definitely did not need lunch afterward.

Fun, great food, excellent tour guide

I love this tour. I had taken it two years ago, and when a group of friends were deciding what to do on a girls weekend in the city I suggested this. All five of them loved it. Our guide was wonderful, and although the tour was essentially the same, he added his own point of view to the tour so it was definitely worth doing again. We loved the new addition of the salt tasting - very different, and very interesting. The food was great, and the "sample" portions were big - truly enough for a meal. We all would recommend the tour to others and plan on taking the Greenwich Village tour in the future.
