The best way to start the trip
Fri, Dec 15, 06   12:00 PM jlgroneck Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
We attended the tour this past Friday. It was myself, my 21 year old daughter and a friend. Kurt was absolutley amazing! It surpassed our expectations. His knowledge of the area and the fact a well know "neighborhood Celebrity" waived to him and our group just made it all more special. The food was great and plentiful, the tour of the neighborhood was insightful and his relationship with each shop owner made us all feel very welcome. It was well worth the cost! He even gave us some great suggestion for the rest of our trip. When we went back to Sarabeth's after the tour Sarabeth hereself came out and talked to us for while. We went to Dinner that evening at Del Posto's and it was perfect. We were given the direct reservation line and had no problem getting a 8:30 Saturday night reservation! Thanks Kurt for a wonderful time. My daughter said the tour and dinner at Del Posto's was the hightlight of her trip. Thanks Again, Jennifer Groneck and Raven Fausz

My husband and I along with my 74 year old Mom and 16 year old neice had a fabulous time with Todd as our tour leader. Very intersting information, lots of great tastes and a thorough tour of the area. We would recommend it highly. In fact we will be participating in the other tours on our next trip to New York. One suggestion, we met other tourists on our weekend in New York and told them about the tour. Consider giving out a business card or pamphlet to share with others.

Highlight of New York!!

We have heard of this tour from a friend and decided it sounded like fun. I can honestly say this was the highlight of our stay in New York. Our guide, Curt was absolutely amazing. We cannot say enough about him. He made our tour interesting, extremely informative and so much fun. The food was amazing! I have never tasted such amazing food. Chelsea Market was our favorite place. I have friends coming to New York in February and you can bet they will be taking one if not more of your tours. If we had longer, we would take every one. Our next trip to New York will definately include this tour and we would ask for Curt again. I'm sure the other guides are great as well, but we had such a positive experience with him. Not only did Curt do all of this, but he remembered all of our names and he even remembered I was allgergic to strawberries! I don't even remember putting that on the form. Unbelievable. I give this tour AND Curt 10 Stars!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you. We Love New York!! Estelle (San Diego, CA) Melanie (Tampa, Florida) Danielle (Tampa) Mikaela (Tampa)

Our tour guide Kurt was the best tour guide my friends and I have ever been on a tour with. He was so funny and informative and very helpful to everyone. Even getting us a cab when the tour was finished. We learned so much about NY and the people of the area. I would truly recommend this tour to anyone who would like to have a fun three hours and learn so much about NY.

Fun times in the meat packing district

With only one full day to spend in NYC, I'm glad I spent the afternoon with Daryl. He was full of energy and unique information about the history of the meat packing district and the rise of Chelsea Market. The tastings were fabulous. Everything was delicous! And when you're done, the 9/11 memorial is just two short train stops away.

Great area to explore
Fri, Dec 1, 06   12:30 PM patlee Female 70+ Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
The tour was fantastic and gives you a look at places and things you would probably just walk by. Chelsea Market and the meatpacking area are fascinating places and the food was terrific. My reason for giving the tour only four stars was because our tour guide never showed up. Calling was useless and resulted in a recorded messsage with no return call. We waited for at least forty-five minues before the tour started and that was only because some industrious ladies from upstate New York tracked down someone in the Market who knew someone with the tour company. Todd came to our rescue and gave us a wonderful tour. At the conclusion we were happy that the tour wasn't canceled. I suggest that the tour company coordinate with the tour guides prior to each tour to make sure this doesn't happen again.
