| Todd, the tour guide, was great. He has tons of interesting information concerning the Chelsea Market and the Meat Packing District. The food was all terrific too. Lucky are the people that live close enough to the market to shop there regularly. Also, good infomation about Mr. Cohen, the man behind the market, what a visionary he must be. |

Thanks to Todd!

| We really enjoyed the pace and presentation of our Chelsea Market tour. I feel that Todd did a great job familiarizing us with the area-past, present, and the future. I think your tours are a great way to get familiar with the various neighborhoods in New York City. |

| The tour was excellent, well organised, informative and the food was fantastic. The tour was in an area that we would not have otherwise gone to, it gave a very interesting insight to the city. It was a highlight of our trip to New York. |

| The tour was a great success. It was very interesting and informative to learn
about the history, the current status, and future plans for Chelsea Market and the
Meatpacking District . The food samples were delectable. Our guide, Wendy, was splendid. Her knowledge and enthusiasm insured a first-rate experience. |

| Spend a few delicious hours getting to know a part of the city that most tourists ignore. After you eat and drink your way through the Chelsea Market, you'll feel like a native New Yorker. Our guide, Cindy, was most gracious and thoroughly knowledgeable about the market and the Meat-Packing District. All of the food was delectable, especially the milk from RonnyBrook Dairy (just like you drank as a kid if you're old enough to remember the milkman coming to your house!)!! This tour is a must-do, even if you're only in the city for one day, as we were. Still, I'm envious of the tourists who could come back a day or two later to bring all of this delicious food home with them!! Thoroughly delightful. |

| I think the tour is a great activity - especially if the weather is bad. Most of the tour was inside a building so it does not matter what the weather is like. I found the information interesting - the guide informative and entertaining - the food was excellent. Standing on concrete for long periods of time is difficult for the elderly. I wish I could have gone shopping during the tour but I understand that would prevent the tour from a time schedule. I wish some of the places could have given us coupons to use if we came back later. |

| My 23 year old daughter and I enjoyed this tour very much. Our tour guide was very fun, personable, and knowledgable about Chelsea Market and the neighborhood. He pointed out lots of interesting details that we would have missed. The food tastings were varied and enjoyable. Take this tour on an empty stomach! Will definately go back to Chelsea Market on a future visit to NYC and might even take the tour again when I return to NYC with my husband in 6 months |
