| We had a great time with our tour guide Kurt (Curt). You could instantly tell he knew his "business". Not only that, he had a great rapport with all the vendors that they welcomed us with open arms. Towards the end of our tour (the walking part of the Meat packing district) it started to rain buckets. We stopped at an Italian restaurant that was on our tour and the manager offered all our group (16) free soda and/or coffee and also set out a delicious side of deep fried zucchini!!!! All on the house. I am sure it is because of how our guide treated the businesses. He was just great with our group and so humorous. As a matter of fact, as we were walking through the Chelsea Market, a couple asked me what kind of tour I was on. I gave them the information and told them it was great!
Thanks so much and I will recommend this tour and your Greenwich Village Tour (I was on that tour several years ago and had a great time) to anyone I know who wants to get the "inside" info on both these areas of NYC. |

| We had the best time on this tour! Kurt was funny and knowledgeable and gave a really fun tour. It was even better than we expected. The food was excellent and plentiful, too. We'll be recommending the tour to all of our friends. |

| This was a fascinating experience. We did not realize that this area was thriving with so much history and great food. Cindy, our tour guide, was very knowledgable and had a great personality which made and made it an enjoyable experience. |

| 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. |

| While I am a native New Yorker, there was much learned after having taken this tour. I think a lot has to do with the luck you have with your particular guide. Mine was very pleasant and definitely had more than just a working knowledge of the environment. I thought that the places we were taken were representative of the area and the many changes that seem to be taking place there. I enjoyed the different samples of food and could definitely see myself becoming a patron of some of those establishments. I also liked the walk outside where the guide pointed out some of the pricey stores that are coming into the area. I think this tour is a worthwhile experience for either a native or a tourist. Relating the information about the High Lline to the special section in the Sunday New York Times was a thoughtful touch.

| I highly recommend it to anybody who wants to know something about Chelsea and the Meatpacking District. Curt, our guide was excellent. He has a extremely good knowledge of the area and of New York City. He made the tour a real highlight of our vacation. Thank you very much!! |

| This was a great way to learn more about what's in your own backyard! Kurt, our guide, was friendly, upbeat, and very knowledgable. A great way to spend a few hours on the weekend exploring the neighbourhoods and restaurants. I will recommend it to others and will take a tour of other NYC neighbourhoods based on this experience - and I work in NYC every day! |
