| This was my first tour. Next year i will go to Greenwich Village and I will compare the two. I loved the history. The guide was very informative and made the tour very exciting. Give him a raise because he earned it. The food was great. it was a great experience and i can't wait for next year. |

| The Chelsea Market and Meat Packing District Tour was fantastic! My sister-in-law and I are from NJ and love spending time in NYC, so we are always looking for things to do over there. I came across the food tasting tours while "surfing the net". This tour is well worth the time and money spent. We just loved the market and the changes made to the surrounding area. There were enough tastings included in the tour that you could surely bypass lunch and go for a wonderful dinner in one of the many area restaurants. Our tour guide, Todd, was just great and so informative. He always kept the interest level high throughout the entire 3 hour tour. Great job! I have recommended this tour to all friends and family. When thinking of a great gift, this tour goes right to the top of my list. I will definitely try out the other tours offered. |

| This tour was absolutely fantastic. My Mom and I have gone on the tour in Greenwich and now the Chelsea Markets tour and each was interesting, educational and the food was very good. We loved it and can't wait to take the remaining tours offered. I have also told my college age daughter and her friends to take the tour and they have enjoyed it as well. The tours give an insider's glimpse to the areas explored, a great understanding of the foods offered in the area and all at very reasonable prices. Our last tour guide, Curt Upton, gave a fantastic tour full of stories of the area presented in a very humorous and engaging manner. |

| I am from Brooklyn and have never been to the Chelsea Market so when a foodie friend of my was in town I thought that it would be fun. It exceeded my expectations! Great tastings and an attentive and knowledgable tour guide. |

Great idea but limited samplings.

| While we enjoyed the tour and would recommend it, we thought it was too expensive for the tastings provided. We were expecting to have tastings from the restaurants we visited, for example at Morimoto's. The tour guide Darryl was great. When we had the cheese tasting it was very limited--one tiny piece of cheese on a tiny cracker. The lobster bisque and the Eleni's cookie were the highlights and were very good. More food needed to be provided for $44 per person. |

| Wow, I was completely surprised about how much fun I had during the tour. Darryl, our guide was engaging, informative, and down right funny. At no point did the tour seem like it dragged. It was a great day spent walking around the Market and Neighborhood. Our group was the first to do a tasting at Marcelleria, and it was amazing. Great food choices, fun information, and just a nice all around day. Oh, and by the way, I'm a New Yorker that spends lots of time in that area at night, so it was wonderful to see it in the daylight. |

Excellent, more than I expected!

| This was our second tour with you and it was as great as the first. The food was phenomenal as was our guide. If you could only control the weather, the day would have been perfect. Thanks once again for making our yearly trip to the city a fun time. |

We had a fantastic time!

| We live a 3-hour car ride from New York so we try to visit at least once per year. This time we had adults and teenagers. This tour was really great! Our guide, Kurt, was very outgoing and personable. We highly enjoyed his tour and would definitely recommend him as a guide. Some of the teenage girls in our group did not like all the food, but most liked everything and were very full afterwards. We will definitely consider doing a different tour in the future! Thanks. |

Great time!
