| Kirk/Kurt was a great guide - very enthusiastic, friendly, and knowledgeable. Enjoyed the history as well as the variety of food especially the salt tasting. The pace was quick but did have opportunity to sit and eat/rest our feet on occassion - the three hours went quickly. Looking forward to dining at a suggested restaurant in the area during our next visit. Thx! |

| The Chelsea Market/Meat Packing Tour was the hit of our "Sisters" weekend in NYC. Our guide, Kirk, was not only VERY informativeand knowledgeable, but friendly and quite funny. All of the food and vendors were amazing. The 3 hour tour went by so quickly and we all wanted MORE. I have already highly recommended the tour to several friends who are planning a NYC trip as well to my daughter and her friends who frequent NYC. I plan to take the Greenwich tour when I visit again. AND I will return to the Chelsea Market and the surrounding neighborhood area again now because of having taken the tour. |

| There was so much information that we obtained that I would have never known without this tour. Our guide, Kurt was spectacular. His knowledge and humor was right on the money.
The food in Chelsea market was outstanding. We went back and purchased alot of the items we tasted.
We would recomend this tour to everyone going to New York |

| This was phenominal, Kurt was great!
I would highly recommend this tour in the future.
We did the Grenwich Village tour last year and were excited to do this one.
Kurt was extremely enthusiastic, knowledgeable and just truly happy to be there with us. Offered up many recommendations of great sights. |

| We have visited NYC many times but have never gone to the Chelsea area. The food tour was a good way to experience that area along with the Meatpacking District. Lots of history there and big revitilization plans. Food tastings along the way were good. Our guide, Daryl, was well informed and funny, too. We have taken another food tour, Greenwich Village, and it was good, too.
I did take another tour this week (with another company) and found their visual aids to be very helpful. The guide had old photos to share with the group that depicted the areas in a historical time frame. |

| This tour was one of the highlights of our trip. Everything we tasted was fabulous! Darryl was funny and entertaining and went out of his way to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. I loved all of his sides stories about the sites we were seeing. Don't hesitate to purchase these tickets, it will be worth every penny! |

| Our guide was fun and very nice and the food tour was a great way to discover Chelsea Market, especially since you can always go back to your favorite stores after the tour. Our group was nice and I even met another European person (I live in Philadelphia but am French and she was on vacation in NY from Germany)! The booklet/documentation was also very helpful for we tasted and saw so many things that we wouldn't have been able to remember it all if we hadn't been given this booklet. I was thrilled and very happy with the tour; I took many pictures and will definitely recommend it to all the people I know.
PS: I was too "shy" to give the German woman my e-mail address but, if possible, could you please forward/e-mail it to her?? We had a good time together during the tour. I am Stephanie (tsarane@hotmail.com). Thank you! |
