Chelsea Market/Meatpacking Dist Food Tasting Tour

My husband and I enjoyed this tour very much, so much so that we plan on taking the other food tours recommended - Greenwich Village and Soho food tours. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and very personable. We met some very nice and interesting people on the tour. We sampled so much food on the tour that we weren't hungry for many hours afterwards. The best part is that we discovered an area of New York that we didn't know existed, and we visit New York on a regular basis! I recommend this tour to anyone who enjoys food as well as enjoys learning a little history about New York.

We thoroughly enjoyed our food tasting tour of Chelsea Market and the Meatpacking District! Our guide, Ed, was a fellow "foodie" and kept us interested and entertained while he shared the history and inner workings of the market and the Meatpacking District. In addition to the variety of delicious and generous tastings, we felt like we really got to know the area. It was fun to peek inside some of the new trendy restaurants. We even went back later to shop and have dinner! Highly recommend!

My girlfriend and I took the Greenwich tour last year so wanted another tour this year. This was my favorite thing I did (includes seeing 2 B-way shows). This was the best money we spent, was so educational, and fun. Our guide was super!!! He kept us entertained and learned all our names within minutes. (KEEP HIM ON BOARD)! I can't find enough good words to say how much I enjoyed every minute. One reason I really liked this one is that it did not involve as much walking as the Village tour. I bought so much stuff from almost every place we went and we even ate dinner that night at Del Posta, all because of the tour. This is a fact that the places on tour should know. It is definitely a sale booster for them. I recommend this tour to locals, as well as visitors. Thank you so much and I will be looking forward to another of your tours next year Submitted from Karen Johnson, Arkadelphia, AR

fun activitiy, the best one that we booked in NY, the guide was outstanding

We had a great time on this tour. The guide was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of useful information. The food was great and we went back later to purchase some more. I would recommend it to anyone except maybe those with small children as I think they would find it too long.

This tour and it's guide were phenomenal!! Not only was our guide an entertainer, but he knew his stuff and kept us interested and eating the whole tour...plus, he memorized everyone's name in the whole group in about 5 minutes!! The food we sampled was wonderful and the Chelsea Market is such an interesting place. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who would like a little more intimate view of an area along with some great taste treats!

We really enjoyed the Chelsea Market tour given by our tour guide Bob who was great. You can tell Bob really loved what he was doing because he did it so well. The food samples were delicious and we had to go back and do some shopping afterwards so we could bring some of the great food home. Learning about the history of the building, the owners of the shops and tidbits about about the food network stars was interesting and it really made the market come alive! Too bad we live over an hour away otherwise I would shop in this market more frequently. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone and it was well worth the price of the ticket.

This was my second FoodTour. I enjoyed the first one so much, I brought my husband to this one. While in NYC, we did a lot - Wicked, Jersey Boys, Statute of Liberty, etc., but upon returning home, when someone asked my husband what his favorite thing in NYC was - he didn't even hesitate - "The Food Tour". Thanks - he's hard to please - it was great. New Orleans, LA

Our tour guide was very engaging and told us many secrets! I loved it!

The Chelsea Marketplace tour is without a doubt worth every cent. Not only did we get to sample delicious foods from a variety of businesses, but we were also fortunate enough to have an excellent tour guide. She gave us excellent background information injected with enthusiasm and humor. What a great shopping and tasting experience!
