| Diana, our guide, makes this tour fun and informative.
It is the perfect choice for a group of friends that want to do brunch on the move and learn lots about a very interesting part of NYC.
Highly Recommended!!! |

| The start of this tour was a bit awkward but once we got on the way it turned into an enjoyable few hours. There were numerous stops and the history of the market and the meatpacking district was interesting and fun.
The food was good, it didn't blow me away but it was enjoyable. The stops at both Mario Bartali & Morimoto's restaurants was interesting and if you aren't usually a fine diner this might have been the nudge you needed to give it a go. The last stop for pasta was definitely a highlight. There is plenty of food provided on the tour and it is definitely good value for money. The main negative for me was the almost "educational lesson" at the end of the tour of : why and how much one should tip the food industry, which was at the end of the tour. It was not necessary and detracted from the rest of the tour which was great. It would definitely not stop me from encouraging others to give this tour a go. |

| This was my fourth food tour. I've been on the Grenwich tour twice, and the Central Grenwich SOHO tour once. Kurt was an outstanding tour guide. His knowledge of food, and his knowledge of the area was stellar. His sense of humor was infectious as well. GREAT delivery! It was raining when we arrived, so the majority of the tour was held inside Chelsea market.....although one could definitely tour the market on their own, one would not receive the wealth of knowledge that we did! I don't know if on less rainy days if more of the neighborhood is toured as well. We did get a smattering of the neighborhood that was great as well.
A wonderful time was experienced by all! Highly recommend! |

| Thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Found it most thoughtful there was seating available at certain locations and the history of the area added to the enjoyment. Each location provided a wonderful sample of their specialty. It was also very considerate of you to cater to one with an allergy (gluten). The tour guide "Curt or Kurt" was worth the price alone. He really made it a great experience along with the cooking and culture. |

| Although the day provided inclement weather most of our tour was indoors. By the time the indoor tour was completed the sun began to shine...hooray! Plenty of food was provided and quite an array it was! Enjoyed strolling around the Meatpacking district which had been a place to avoid for many years.
Each sampling of food was delicious....and our guide provided lots of laughs. He was great with our names. I cannot wait to do this tour again and to try the others that are offered. |

| There were five of us from 35-65. Two of us took the tour before. We got the same tour guide person named Kurk. He made the tour. He is funny, and remembered all of our names. We can't say enough about the amount of food, the quality of food, and the tour guide. We all said, that Kurk made the tour. I hope I am spelling his name correctly. We were not disappointed the second time around. They actually added another course at the end, a pasta course. Kurk or Kirt went above and beyond to make our tour special. We all agreed he made the tour. |

| The tour was excellent and our tour guide told a great story on the history of the market. The tour pace and timing was efficient but not too tiring. Really enjoyed rounding off the tour at Macelleria. It was delicious! |
