| We had a great time on the tour. Todd was an excellent guide and nice and funny, too. The food was to die for - each and every item we tasted was absolutely wonderful. My daughter, the l9 year old vegetarian, loved it so much she is inspired to come and work for you! The Market is definitely a jewel in the NYC crown and we have already told other friends and family members to look into doing it. Thanks for a good time and good food. And Todd, thanks for keeping us safe indoors when the sky was pitch black and the wind was throwing freezing rain in our faces. Next time we come, we'll go to the Meat Packing District to see it. |

| We had a great time with our tour guide Kurt (Curt). You could instantly tell he knew his "business". Not only that, he had a great rapport with all the vendors that they welcomed us with open arms. Towards the end of our tour (the walking part of the Meat packing district) it started to rain buckets. We stopped at an Italian restaurant that was on our tour and the manager offered all our group (16) free soda and/or coffee and also set out a delicious side of deep fried zucchini!!!! All on the house. I am sure it is because of how our guide treated the businesses. He was just great with our group and so humorous. As a matter of fact, as we were walking through the Chelsea Market, a couple asked me what kind of tour I was on. I gave them the information and told them it was great!
Thanks so much and I will recommend this tour and your Greenwich Village Tour (I was on that tour several years ago and had a great time) to anyone I know who wants to get the "inside" info on both these areas of NYC. |

| From the begining of the tour we were bombarded with taste bud and brain stimulation. Our tour gide was passionate about her City and took time to engage the group in this most interactive stroll across the Chelsea Market and the Meat Packing District. |

| I had family from Virginia and decided to take the tour. We had to take a 3 month old and a 3 year old. Kids can be kids and Cindy adapted to our situation beautifuly. She did not neglect the other members of the group. She stayed focused and provided us with attention and made sure that we always had food to eat. The samples where wonderful, I was so full by the end of the tour, I did not eat until late that night. I never knew that New York had such a great place to eat and the history to go along with it. I have also taken the Greenwich Village tour and I have loved both.
I would strongly recommend this tour to anyone. Have fun, we did!!!
Thank you to Cindy. |

| Our Tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and entertaining. The market was beautiful and the samples were plentiful didn't have a need to eat after wood. The meat market portion was very educating. Would enthusiastically recommend this tour for visitors and locals. In our everyday busy life we forget to enjoy the history that is all around us. I have made a commitment to enjoy all areas of New York and Manhattan is bountiful with history and entertainment. - Kim |

| We've done walking tours abroad - this was one of the best! Cindy was well prepared, knowledgeable, and adaptable. We loved all of the areas visited and tastes along the way. We will certainly recommend the tour and consider doing it again when we return. |

| We had a great time exploring a part of New York City we knew very little about. Our guide was very entertaining and the food we tasted was great. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is going to be in the city for a few days! |
