| All the facts, history and trivia about the Chelsea Market delivered by an extremely knowledgeable guide (Curt) who is obviously personally interested and connected and is a real entertainer. The food tasting establishments were all of high quality - the lobster room was the most fascinating and the salt tastings were also unusual. |

| Having been to NYC many times before, I was looking for something different. My friend recommended the tour, and it completely lived up to my expectations. The food was delicious-- and getting to have tastes of everything is the way to go! ....But my brother and I thought the best part was learning about the Chelsea Mkt, and area. We look forward to returning in a few years and seeing how much it has changed! Our tour guide Wendy was an added bonus-- her animation and humor really brought the tour to life! Thanks oodles! |

| We thoroughly enjoyed the upbeat personality of our guide as well as the great nibbles along the way. The day was drizzly and cold so it turned out to be the perfect tour as most of it was indoors. Thanks for a great afternoon! |

| Superb tour for foodies - lots of great produce sampled in Chelsea market. Have also done the Greenwich tour, previously. Think Chelsea market is better for 'foodies' with Greenwich more for seeing more of New York.

| This was my second time taking this tour - I like to take special visitors because it is refreshingly original. Besides being a great building from an historical perspective, what they have done with it is just great. Top it off with tasty bites from many of the purveyors, and noshing becomes entertainment. Our tour guide Cindy is full of knowledge and enthusiasm and is a huge part of what makes it great. The meatpacking district is trendy and quickly changing, so see it while you can! |
