We had a great time and our guide was excellent. The food was really good and the portions generous. I plan to take a different tour from this company when we go back to NY.

See above + my only food for thought comment is to tell the tour guide to slow down a bit. He had way too much coffee! Great experience.

History seemed to take a front page to this tour.. Food was more of a secondary, but overall the tour was wonderful.

Ladies of the Lake Annual NYC Tour
Fri, Jul 29, 11   11:00 AM dmarcy Female Unspecified Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Each summer a group of us like to tour a section on NYC; this year we selected the Chelsea Market Tour since I'd heard some very postive comments about it from some friends. Since, we are a group of 18 women, it was important to find a date that had all 16 spots open and to plan far in advance so most could attend. At the end of May, we decided on July 29th, and were able to get 15 friends to sign up. I can happily say that the feedback was very enthusiastic - everyone really enjoyed the tour! Foods of NY does an excellent job offering a variety of stores and restaurants and mixes in some truly great selections - soup, cupcakes, fresh rolls, and Italian delicacies are just some of the tastings. Add some unique settings and historical details about the surrounding area, a stroll along the High Line and you have one very enjoyable day We are already discussing which of the tours we'd like to do next summer.

Tasty and Informative Tour

What a wonderful time my friends and I had during our tour of the Chelsea Market and the Meatpacking District! We sampled a variety of scrumptious treats while learning the background of the market and the history of the area. Our friendly tour guide was filled with interesting info and the 3 hours flew by. I recommend this tour.

Information great, some samples meager

Out guide, Barry, was excellent. Easy to hear and so informative. Some of the samples were meager. A shot glass size sample of chocolate milk was a bit lame as was a tiny cracker with a smidgen of cheese. All other samples were plentiful and all were tasty.

It was a very hot day, and it was nice to spend the majority of the tour indoors at the Chelsea Market. Barry was a great guide, and the food was delicious. Highly recommended!

We were really surprised to find so many bakeries and specialty food shops in this area. And the food was amazing - tried new things and had a blast
