| This tour was the highlight of our two day visit to NYC. We got a ton of great food and visited most of the sites in the Market, Meatpacking District and Greenwich Village. However the true gem of the tour is the guide Kurt. Not only did he pass long a wealth of great information about the sites we were visiting, but he is an extremely knowledgeable foodie and was able to provide color that went above and beyond the typical tour fare. Just make sure you ask him about Martha Stewart! |

| I would recommend this to anyone who has visited the major attractions in NY and wants to do something a bit different. The food in Chelsea Market was fantastic and the history tour of the neighborhood was very interesting. |

Loved our tour!

| Being in our sixties, we viewed this walking tour with a certain amount of trepidation, but we were very pleasantly surprised. Although we covered a fair amount of ground, the pace was comfortable, and the stories, anecdotes and personal experiences of our guide made it a truly light hearted and memorable day. There were more than ample tastings, plenty of background about the varied samples, but no pressure to buy. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed the morning, the samples, the company of the rest of the group, but the services of our very knowledgeable and personable guide was in fact, "the icing on the cake" A big thankyou to you all !! |

| We had a great tour guide and even though it rained for the outdoor portion of the tour, we still had fun.
The tour of the market is more of tasting then learning how they do things. Still fun and great food. |

| We've been to NYC numerous times and taken the standard local tours. This puts those to shame. I Would highly recommend it, particularly for those, like us, who have a general knowledge of New York City, but who wish to "drill down" to find the real NY - and who have a love of great food! |

| I had a great time! I learned a lot about about the history of the market as well as the surrounding area. The food was awesome, and I liked that we did all the food stops first, then walked around the neighborhood. Our tour guide Bob was very personable, and did a great job. He provided a lot of information, answered everyone's questions, and even went a half hour longer than advertised! A great way to spend an afternoon in New York. |
