Our tour guide, Darryl, was absolutely wonderful--very knowledgeable and entertaining. I have been on your other food tours but this was THE BEST!!!! The selected food tastings were great--especially the lobster bisque--we went back the next day for lunch. |

We had the tour in record setting temps of almost 100 degrees. The outside portion even in nice weather is marginal at best. I would suggest during extreme hot or rain is to have an alternate route that would cut the outside portion of the tour down in at least half, and give your quest more time inside even if it is only to allow 10 to 15 minutes of shopping at one or two shops |

My friend and I born and raised in NYC could not believe this tour. The guide although a Texas native sounded as if also was a native New Yorker. The food was just right and the information provided a picture of Chelsea as we remembered it as kids. I have already recommended it to friends and when I return we will do another tour. |

I must start by saying, if it was not for Amy in reservations, this tour would not have been possible. She made it posssible forme to share this tour with my 10 y/o son for his birthday. Kurt our tour guide was hysterical. He gave a fantastic tour and kept it suitable for my son. The stops along the tour were great, and the samplings were wonderful. This was my second tour with this company, both with children, and they were excellent. If I can ever get my wife to NYC, this will be a must do. |

This tour was one of the highlights of our second trip to NYC. It was delightful, very imformative about the history/ restoration of the Meat Packing District, and is well worth anyone's time. Our guide was very knowledgeable, yet fun and entertaining, and he MADE the tour for us! He kept us on schedule, but allowed us the freedom we needed from place to place. We ended on time, and then went back and shopped with several retailers, as he suggested. I have already recommended this tour to many since my return home; I guess I raved about it so much that many friends and family want to reserve a spot for their next trip! |

Chelsea Food Market was a wonderful place to start tasting the food of the neighborhood. We sampled a wide variety of food there and then continued on into the meat packing district to get a true flavor of the history, buildings and food. We walked to new High Line and then finished with pasta at a wonderful restaurant. Our guide was an enthusiastic promoter of the neighborhood and very knowledable of both foods and history. Thank you so much for offering this venue! |

The food tour was everything I thought it would be and more. Not only did we taste some amazing food (which I plan to eat again via shipping methods), but we also learned about the history, transformation, and culture of the Chelsea Market/Meatpacking District. I would highly recommend this tour. |

This is the 2nd NYC food tour I have done and the 4th I've done overall. It is a fantastic way to see the in's and out's of a city and go to places you would never have gone on your own. The tour guide is always enthusiastic and willing to answer any questions. Best of all the food is delicious! It is something that you will take away from your vacation with a more experienced appetite and knowledge of a great city! |

This is the 2nd food tour I've done and it was just as great as the Greenwich Village tour I took last year. I think I actually liked this one a little more. Kurt was our guide and he was awesome! He had so much energy and was full of information. I loved how he memorized all of our names and constantly brought us into his conversations. There was a guy that stopped by our tour that took this same tour 2 weeks ago and Kurt remembered his name...very impressive. The food choices were great and the 3 hours flew by so fast. We definitely weren't hungry after.
I'd do this tour again in a hearbeat! We even visited Chelsea Market a couple days later and stopped at Elenis for cupcakes several times. Best cupcakes ever! I highly recommend this food tour...you won't be disappointed. |
