| Kurt was our tour guide on the 12/3 tour. We thoroughly enjoyed the entire tour. I loved learning all about Chelsea Market; the merchants there clearly have great passion for what they do. I also enjoyed touring the Meatpacking district. I would never have been able to navigate that myself, and certainly would not have enjoyed it so much. Great job! I'll definitely do another one of your tours next time I'm in NYC.

| Curt, our guide, was simply wonderful. He worked in some laughs along with the information. He was attentive to our needs and paid attention to each one of us. The tour moved well and there were no boring or dead parts. Each food vendor greeted us warmly and enthusiastically. This tour provided an exceptional way to taste many of the foods offered at the Chelsea Market. We returned after the tour for more shopping and tasting...I recommend sticking your head into Hogs and Heiffers, you just gotta do it. Thanks! |

| My grown daughters and I have been to N.Y. many times and for this trip concluded to do more exploring - to learn about the history and culture of different Manhattan areas. This tour suited our intentions perfectly! For the first time we feel that we have a good grasp of the history/culture of Chelsea. Food tasting added a delicious & informative aspect to the already fascinating tour. Very reasonably priced and well worth the time... wished for more when it concluded. We'll do the Greenwich tour next time. |

| My sister and I took the tour together on our visit from California. It was one of the highlights of our first trip to New York. We loved the Chelsea Market and Kurt's knowledge and stories were amazing. He showed us so many things during the three hour tour including a visit to a friend's bed and breakfast for dessert. The Chelsea Market and Meatpacking District are fascinating and the tour was worth every penny. The food stops and tastes were wonderful. |

| The tour was wonderful- the guide truly knew the city and all of the fun details that the guidebooks won't tell you. It was great to walk around and get the scoop on an upcoming area of NYC. You won't leave hungry, that's for sure! The guide never made us feel rushed and pointed out all the fun details, historical aspects and current day stories of the area. I took another bus tour the day before and learned nothing- this tour was great because it was a small group (about 12 people) and it felt very hands-on. Guide was great! |

| My husband and I took this tour while on a short holiday in NY. We have visited the city before, but found this activity a great way to see parts of the city we had not seen before as well as try some great food from local vendors. We highly recommend this tour. |
