| The Chelsea Market Tour was a wonderful way to learn about Chelsea Market and the Meat Packing District. I live locally and didn't know the history of the Market, so qiute informative. Our guide (Ed) was really knowledgable and the food along the way was delicious. Come hungry! |

| Our guide Kurt was great value, had an excellent understanding of the local area and made us laugh and laugh... The tour is excellent value, you will not leave without a full belly. The food was delicious and we discovered a part of New York that we may never had found ourselves (the Chelsea Market)
Do yourself a favour and DO THIS TOUR! |

| Our guide, Curt, did an awesome job, leading us through the beautifully renovated Chelsea market and further into the Meatpacking district. The tour was peppered with interesting anecdotes and filled with tasty morsels. Can't wait to try another such tour |

| This was my second FoodTour. I enjoyed the first one so much, I brought my husband to this one. While in NYC, we did a lot - Wicked, Jersey Boys, Statute of Liberty, etc., but upon returning home, when someone asked my husband what his favorite thing in NYC was - he didn't even hesitate - "The Food Tour".
Thanks - he's hard to please - it was great.

| The Chelsea Marketplace tour is without a doubt worth every cent. Not only did we get to sample delicious foods from a variety of businesses, but we were also fortunate enough to have an excellent tour guide. She gave us excellent background information injected with enthusiasm and humor. What a great shopping and tasting experience! |

| I enjoyed the recent tour very much. The tour guide did a very good job with the history of Chelsea Market, and the presentation of the tour with a sense of humor. He related well to the tour goers, as well as, the business establishments. The length of the tour and number in the group was appropriate. The tastings were great. I will definitely return to shop at Chelsea Market and recommend the tour to friends. |

| I had previously been on the Greenwich Village Tour and have been back for the Chelsea Mkt / Meatpacking Dist Food Tasting Tour. The tour should really be called simply the Chelsea Mkt Tour -- The Meat Packing District was so-so and very little would have been lost if bypassed altogether -- that is unless they decide to put Pastis on tour. The Chelsea Wine Vault is not on the tour and that is a real shame. The tour guide as always was awesome -- funny, knowledgeable and kept up a nice pace -- we were in stiches laughing from the jokes for most of the tour. I wish they would put the FoodTV Kitchen as part of the tour, that would be a blast to see. I have will continue to recommend the tours unless I hear the quality drops. While the tickets may be expensive, I have found places on my two tours for which I will be returning for some of their fine food and I now have a better more comfortable feel of the Greenwich Village and Chelsea Market that I feel I have someplace to always return to see. I have a lot of family that comes to visit who always wants to see NYC, beside the standard places (which I have seen hundreds of times) this tour gives me and my out of town family something new and interesting to see that not everyone knows about -- all in all, it was blast and had great time |
