| We've been to the original Food of NYC tour in Greenwich and thought we should go to another one to learn more about the city, even though we have spent our lives here. All I must say was, it was fantastic. Nice little tour of places that we just didn't know existed. And the tour guide,Diana was very enthusiastic and informative. Can't ask for anything more. Thanks for a great time. |

| Our guide, Bob, knew the district inside out and seemed to enjoy sharing his knowledge of and enthusiasm about the area with us. The food samples were generous and delicious. Small group size made conversation and questions possible. Highly recommended. |

| Enjoyed the tour, got a decent amount of delicious food to taste. Would have been better if all the tastings weren't just in Chelsea Market, though the market does have some great stuff. Enjoyed the history provided about the MP district, but could have spent more time walking around in it. |

| We really enjoyed the Chelsea Market tour given by our tour guide Bob who was great. You can tell Bob really loved what he was doing because he did it so well. The food samples were delicious and we had to go back and do some shopping afterwards so we could bring some of the great food home. Learning about the history of the building, the owners of the shops and tidbits about about the food network stars was interesting and it really made the market come alive! Too bad we live over an hour away otherwise I would shop in this market more frequently. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone and it was well worth the price of the ticket. |

| This tour takes three hours, the first two hours inside Chelsea Market, and the last hour outside touring the neighborhood. I enjoyed hearing about the history of Chelsea Market and tasting various foods inside the speciality shops, but found the last hour outside, when the tour guide pointed out high-priced Manhattan real estate, rather boring. I would suggest future tours spend three hours inside Chelsea Market, with more tastings and a tour through Food Network studios instead of peeking in the Buddha Bar and other high-priced restaurants.
There is a place for the outside tour, but this should not have been it. If this change cannot be effected , then I suggest the tour be shortened to 2 hours, all of it inside Chelsea Market. |

| The Chelsea Market/Meatpacking District tour was a great time. I live in NYC and took family to this. I'd recommend it to out-of-towners and New Yorkers alike. Our guide, Cyndi, was extremely enthusiastic and knowledgable. |
