Enthusiasm and fun

Our group of three enjoyed this tour. It was a good mix of history and food. My one disappointment is that I was expecting more food - it was difficult to know how much to pace oneself.

I enjoyed our guide. I loved the food. I learned a lot about the area. I wish there was more meal-type foods. Like a tasting of some sort of pasta or meat. Overall, I would recommend this to other NY visitors.

We had a great time, and Kurt was excellent! The tour really was robust - history of the area, history of the indivdual shops and restaurants, and full explanation about the food. And everything we tasted was great!!

Fantastic tour

This is now my second tour accessed through Zerve. First one was Chicago and now NYC. Kurt, our guide was delightfully entertaining, had an impeccable memory - knew all of our names within the first 5 minutes - amazing! Great tour in general with lots of food to be had...actually too much food at times, which is not a bad thing at all. Great information and knowledge received of the area and history provided. I would highly recommended this to anyone! This is one of the first things I do now when I travel - looking up cultural/walking tours, great use of time and money!

Would definitely recommend

This tour is great for a local or NYC visitor. The locals would get a good overview of most of the stores in the Chelsea Marketplace and know where to shop. Also the stops at the surrounding restaurants and reservation #s were very nice. A NYC visitor gets a nice history of the building and area and some yummy eats along the way. Also some celebrity sightings. :) It was a great girls day out without the kids, but I recommended it to all of my local relatives!

Great value and a good way to learn about the area
Thu, Oct 18, 07   12:00 PM debraluf Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
It was an interesting tour and a good way to learn about the area if you're not at all familiar with it. It was also an excellent value. However, I wouldn't go out of my way again (we took the train from CT to Grand Central and then had to take two subways and walk a few blocks to get to the market) unless I was coupling it with something else that same day. Also, people who can't stand/walk for three hours or who tire easily should avoid this tour. That said, If you're already in the city visitng for the week and you're looking for something interesting to do, I would definitely recommend it. And if you're lucky you'll get Kurt as your tour guide. He's fantastically funny and entertaining; a great deal of the appeal of the tour can be credited to him. (And the food was good, too.)

Fantastic, Delicious, and Informative!

Our guide Kurt went over and above the call of duty to give us and the rest of our group a wonderful experience. The things we saw and tasted were puctuated by the information and experience that Kurt brought to the tour. I would definitely not only recomend the tour to anyone who is a "foodie" but I will take the tour again the next time I am in NYC! A wonderful experience--a highlight of our week!

This was our 2nd food tour with your company and it was excellent. It was great to see a different part of NY and our tour guide Kurt was amazing. He memorized everyone's names, was very knowledgeable, well organized and a great guide. Keep up the great work. I have highly recommended this to many of my friends and family and will continue to do so.
