| I went on this tour with my husband and another couple. We are very happy we did it. We learned so much history about the building the market is located in. We were very pleased with our tour guide. She could have talked a little bit louder because of all the noise in the market, but she was very informative and had a great sense of humor. We sampled food and baked goodies that we wanted desperately to go back and purchase so we could bring stuff back home. Unfortunately we didn't have time to go back to the market, but we will definitely go back again next time we come to the big apple. You also learn alot about the Meat Packing District on this tour. I highly recommend this tour. We have also taken the Greenwich Village walking tour and we loved that one also (same company). Our bellys were very full when the tour was over. Don't hesitate on this one! |

| Our tour guide was knowledgeable, interesting and fun. He kept the group moving but allowed us time to shop as well. We visited a nice variety of shops on the tour and sampled foods at many of them. The quantity and quality of the foods sampled was much better than those we had on the Soho Food Tour. After touring the area, we would be very interested in returning to some of the shops and restaurants on our next trip to NYC. |

| Kurt entertained, educated, and enlightened the group. He was my tour leader for the second time, to my delight, and my guests were as thrilled with him as I was. The tour itself is interesting and delicious. We greatly enjoyed tasting our way through Chelsea Market, getting to see the gorgeous restaurants, and making our way around the Chelsea meatpacking district - we even shopped afterward, and went back to the Gansevoort Hotel for drinks. Five stars to this tour and especially to Kurt! |

| One of the highlights of my visit to The Big Apple was definately the food tour as it gave a fantastic overview of the restaurants as well as insight into the background of area.
The food tasting experience was a culinary delight, I highly recommend that anyone who enjoys good food should make a point of going on this most entertaining tour! |

| We had a great time on the Chelsea & meatpacking tour. Saw a few celebs too which was fun! We tried loads of different things, including flavoured salts & salt 'candies' which were very tasty and surprising. We were lucky enough to only have a small tour and the chance to meet and talk to many of the owners of the businesses we were touring which was great. I also liked meeting the real-life lobsters!!! The food was delicious, and plenty of it. A real mix of samples so there is something for everyone. I liked hearing about the history of the areas we were visiting and the regeneration that's happening there, plus we stuck our heads round the door of some fab restaurants and shops that'd we'd have never gone in otherwise. All in all a great tour with a great guide (Kurt!), which made for great fun (and a full stomach!!). |

| Although one of our group members hesitated at the idea of a "Walking Tour", he enthusiastically participated and found the experience very rewarding. We found that there were many places to sit and rest, while enjoying the tastings from the best markets in town. We were all fascinated by the history of the market, and were thoroughly entertained by our tour guide, Curt. We found him to be very knowlegable of the area, and were very happy to see that he was our guide for the Greenwich Village tour later in the week, which was equally as enjoyable. Our group highly recommends this tour to those who want to find out about the history of these areas, enjoy delicious tastings, and discover new restaurants to return to in the future. |
