| Our guide, Kurt, led us on an educational, sensory-delighting, entertaining insider's view of the Chelsea Market and surrounding area.
We highly recommend the tour! |

Way more than cooking!

| I took the Chelsea Market tour with my daughter-in-law and we both really enjoyed it. The food sampling was great and filling. No need for lunch although we did return to the market for some take home items of the food we sampled. Curt (with a C), our guide, was knowledgeable as well as entertaining! We learned some fun and fascinating history of the area on our walking portion of the tour as well as some great ideas for dining. I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting NYC. I am coming back in the summer and will defiantly do another food tour....a great way to get a "taste" of the city! |

excellent and fun tour. Curt was terrific.

| My family thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Your choices of products was on target. Salt is a little sketchy, but Curt made it very entertaining. |

We loved it !

| This tour was absolutely fabulous! My family and I were captivated the entire time by both the history of the area as presented by our guide and the food as prepared by the vendors. Being from New York it is so interesting to learn the stories of the neighborhoods of the city that everyone has heard of, but few really know. As an added note, our guide Kurt was hilarious and entertaining every step of the way...he is one of the funniest people on the planet. |

| I can see people who love to cook will enjoy this tour. It's full of neat stories about famous TV chefs, unique ingredients, the NYC dining scene, and tasty samples. I'm more of a history and architecture buff, so the next time I get to NYC I'll probably try the Greenwich Village tour my wife and son rave about. |

Very Splendid Experience

| This was the first time I had ever taken part in a food and walking tour of Chelsea Market and the Meatpacking District, and I enjoyed it very much. The tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, and I found my group to be friendly as well.
I loved sampling all of the foods offered. I even went back to the Market to buy a few things once the tour had officially ended. I intend on taking part in the other food/walking tours offered, such as the Greenwich Village tour. |

It was great!

| Our leader, Kurt, was well informed, organized, and had a good, spontaneous sense of humor.
The food was plentiful, and for the most part, delicious. i never knew there were so many kinds of salt.
Our walk through the meatpacking district was informative and well presented, especially, the biker's bar.
My friend and I had a wonderful time, and are looking forward to the Greenwich Village tour. |

| The Chelsea Market tour was a great combination of food and the stories of the past, present, and future of the market and the MP district. Cindy, the guide was fantastic. |
