| Kurt, the tour guide, was enthusiastic and well-informed. He took the time to get acquainted with each of the tour members, and was always conscience of the food needs of our multi-aged group. He gave us a lot of insight into the Chelsea Market, as well as the food bought/sold there. It was unbelievable how many different food samples we were offered at the market, and then ending with a plate of pasta with a delicious ox-tail ragu sauce! You definitely do not need to worry about lunch. |

| What an excellent experience! So much history, anecdotes, information and delicious food. Our tour guide was very personable and had great information to share. The shops we visited couldn't have been more accommodating and every tasting was terrific.
I've done the Greenwich Village tour and thought that was excellent as well. I treated a friend to this one as a birthday gift and she was totally surprised at how great the experience was. I am eager to do the Soho one next.
Thanks so much! |

| My mother and sister-in-law were in town visiting, so I signed us up for this tour. It was a wonderful way to spend the afternoon, and gave my sister-in-law a whole new view of New York-- she had previously only been to very touristy Times Square, etc. A great way to entertain guests if you want to show them more local flavor rather than the usual spots. I love Chelsea Market! |

| I enjoyed this tour so much the first time I went (as part of a professional meeting), I took friends with me a second time. Chelsea Market is a unique retailing concept and the tasting tour gives the consumer great insight that they wouldn't otherwise get. The tour guide is knowledgable, has good stories, and is effective in maximizing the customer experience. The tour is a little pricey, but it will replace one or two meals for the day making it a worthwhile expenditure. You will not leave hungry - you will be making plans to return for lunch on another day! If I were asked ways to improve, I would edit the tour of the Meat Packing District some; that third hour is hard - interesting, but tiring! |

| Our tour guide, Kurt or Curt ??, was the BEST -- very knowledgeable, entertaining and enthusiastic about every tour stop. He had unbelievable capability of remembering each guest's name; this made each person feel part of the tour group.
The food tastings were very good and ample for lunch. I was very satisfied with the quantity of food.
I would recommend this food tasting tour to be included in one's visit agenda. Don't wait to the last minute to make reservations. |
