| We all enjoyed our tour very much and liked our guide.
I would have been interested in tasting what the restaurants had to offer in some small form. All tastings were in the market and while quite nice, I did not get a sense of what the restaurants in the meat packing district had to offer. |

| What an amazing tour this was! I thought it would be fun, but instead it was phenomenal! Our tour guide, Sam, was knowledgeable, funny, friendly, and very personable. He memorized everyone's name at the start of the tour and called everyone by name for the next three hours. The Chelsea Market food shops were incredible and the choice of delicasies were unmatched!. I think I've bragged about this tour to everyone I know... and when friends say they want to go, I'm offering to go with them, just so I can experience the tour all over again. From the history to the food facts, and from the individual shop owners to all the delicious tastings, I couldn't think of a better way to spend the afternoon. Grab your favorite foodie friends and go go go! I can't wait to try the other tours too! |

| I have never really done a food tour before but I am glad that I did it. It was amazing to learn the history of the restaurants as well as trying out different types of foods. The tour guide was exceptional and was very knowledgeable about the different foods and locations. He was very enthusiastic as well. Overall I had a great time and would do it again and would definitely recommend it. |

| Bob was a great tour guide, knowledgeable, interesting and obviously loved what he was doing. The food selections were great and the history of the meat packing district was fascinating.
We can't wait to come back to New York and take one of the other tours offered. Do you do this in other major cities? San Francisco? Chicago? |

| I booked the tour from Australia - it was my first experience upon arrival in New York. As I am involved in the food industry in Australia I thought it would be a good tour to do and I was not disappointed - lots to see and plenty of food to sample. |

| The tour was fantastic. The group leader Kurt made it so much fun and educational. I have had the Greenwich Village tour and was lucky enough to have Kurt for that one too. He is knowledgeable and very funny.
The food was delicious. |

| On behalf of my Mom, Aunt and myself we want to thank Daryl for an excellent tour. He was so kind and enthusiatic and we learned a great deal about that areaof town and the history of the building. We enjoyed all the samples too. I actually have ordered from the market already when I got home.
I would highly recommend it and I already have told alot of people about it.
Sincerely,
Kathy Morton |

| This is a great tour, the food is fantastic and Chelsea Market is such a unique place.
A great way to learn about the neighborhood and a section of New York that you might not get to on your own. |
