| This was a fantastic tour, if all of the tour guides are as good as the one we had (Curt) everyone who takes this tour will get more than their money's worth. The food was great and plentiful. The history of the area and information about various places was interesting & informative, and was delivered in a fun & conversational manner that kept the pace moving and engaging. I will absolutely recommend this tour to anyone I know who is traveling to New York City. |

| Our guide Kurt was great value, had an excellent understanding of the local area and made us laugh and laugh... The tour is excellent value, you will not leave without a full belly. The food was delicious and we discovered a part of New York that we may never had found ourselves (the Chelsea Market)
Do yourself a favour and DO THIS TOUR! |

| Great tour! We thoroughly enjoyed our guide and all the wonderful places we went. The food samples are tasty and filling. We ended up coming back to the Meat Packing District for dinner after a suggestion from our guide. |

| Our tour guide, Cindy, was very knowledgeable about this area (Chelsea) and knew quite a few people as we went on the tour. She pointed out a lot of interesting facts in the Chelsea Market (you have to go on the tour to find out what they are though (<:) as well as showing up parts of the Meatpacking District (even found out about a few places that were used in Sex and the City - the tv show, not the movie). We definitely had enough items to sample and everything was great. It's very easy to find via subway. If you select this tour, you will not be disappointed. I am a picky eater myself and I had no problems trying anything that was offered. |

| We loved this tour. I live in the city and had taken some friends to the Greenwich Village tour a few weeks ago (it was also great), and this one was just as fabulous. This is DEFINITELY worth your time. Come hungry though. We had a large breakfast and were stuffed at the end of the 11:30 tour - so many fantastic tastings, and you won't want to skip any of them due to a full stomach! I also got about 20 new ideas on places I can enjoy in Manhattan! |

| Fun tour...the only thing that might enhance it is if the guide could provide more substance, i.e. factoids on history, architecture, local culture, etc.) to fill the "quiet" time while we are eating. There were periods on the tour where the group was just sitting around eating without the input/commentary of the guide. |

| I had previously gone on a Greenwich Village tour the year before and loved it so much that I looked forward to the Chelsea area tour and was not disappointed. The tour guide (Curt) was phenonmenal and the food tastings were plentiful and very tasty. We enjoyed the area so much that we returned the following evening to dine at a local restaurant we had passed by on tour and also to buy some goodies from some of the shops in the Chelsea meat packing plant. Would definitely go on this tour again! |
