| Kurt was our tour guide on the 12/3 tour. We thoroughly enjoyed the entire tour. I loved learning all about Chelsea Market; the merchants there clearly have great passion for what they do. I also enjoyed touring the Meatpacking district. I would never have been able to navigate that myself, and certainly would not have enjoyed it so much. Great job! I'll definitely do another one of your tours next time I'm in NYC.

| I took my 83 year old mother from SC and my son's new girlfriend (25 yrs old) We all enjoyed the tour immensely! My mother has difficulty hearing, so I quietly let the guide (Christy?) know of her difficulty. She immediatel brought her up to stand right beside her at every stop and made sure she had a front row seat every time sitting was involved. My mother was in heaven! The information Christy provided was so interesting and held everyone's attention. (Great sense of humor as well!) We all really enjoyed the tour. And my son's girlfriend, a 3 year resident of NYC, learned a whole lot and is now putting Chelsea on her list of places to shop for groceries. She was so sorry she hadn't been aware of the market before. I highly recommend this tour!!! (Actually, this was my second time. I went on the very same tour in October of '06) |

| We were a group of five adults who live in Queens, New York and decided we wanted to enjoy our City as tourists.
We had a really fun day and to see the changes in the area was unbelievable. Our tour guide Cindy was very informative and the sampling of the food was plentiful. All in all we had a very pleasant afternoon.
Would recommend it to all. |

| Our guide was Todd (last name I don't know). I'm a lawyer from Toronto and I found Todd knowledgable, informative, and a pleasure to be around. The tour was excellent value and comparing it to 2 others I did on this past trip, it was the best.
Well done and I can't think of a thing I'd change.

| I strongly recommend the trip to anybody who wants to improve the knowledge about presumably ordinary looking districts of NY. Excellent food, good story-telling, fine atmosphere created by KURT- it was fantastic experience and thank you for it! |

| If you have never been to the Chelsea Market and the meat packing district this is a wonderful opportunity to find out what it is all about and really get a taste of NYC's amazing food. You will not leave hungry from this tour and the food is to die for! You start the tour in the market and work your way to the other side and out and around Chelsea District. The tour is not fast pace, so you never get tired. The tour guide was very entertaining and filled with fun facts. |

GREAT!!!

| This was the second time I've done one of thse tours and both times, Kurt was our tour guide. It's a great thing to do with people visiting from out of town and also a lot of fun for New Yorkers. Lots of great adn unique food but what we really liked about it is the all the extra history about the areas that Kurt adds during the tour. All very interesting and entertaining stuff. Kurt is a lot of fun and make sure that everyone enjoys the tour. Highly recommended! |

| This was a delightful tour. My tour enjoyed learning about the history of the building and this entire area of NYC which we had never visited before on previous visits. The tasting part of the tour was delightful as well. The "famous" bisquits that we tasted at Sarabeth's were the only part of the tour that was disappointing. We're from the South, and we know our bisquits. These were NOT good bisquits. The lobster bisque from The Lobster Place was outstanding, however, and our tour guide, Darrell, was worth the price of the tour. |

| This was an excellent tour and the food was outstanding - our tour guide, Bob was great, extremely knowledgeable about the area and very sensitive to the tour members. Would recommend to my friends - have already done so. |
