| the tour guide takes the group to the home of a friend (bed & breakfast), perhaps a advertising detour, if I had known that from the outset I would not have registered and paid for this tour. |

| The best part of the tour was the guide, Darrell. He was great and provided a fun tour of the area, including many great tastings. |

Great time!

| Darryl was a wonderful guide. The tour of Chelsea Market was terrific with great tastings and we enjoyed the tour of the neighborhood. Darryl really went the extra mile to make us feel comfortable and give us extra information. We definitely will be back to this area on our next trip to New York. It was a great day that we will remember for a long time. |

What a joyful, cheery experience.

| I very much enjoyed the food tour. The guide was very fun. The food was wonderful but certainly stop for breakfast before if an early tour. I really enjoyed visiting a brownstone home. I always wondered what they were like inside. |

Fantastic!

| A bountiful variety of delicious foods, a charming guide (the very personable and appealing Kurt!) sharing countless fascinating, fun and funny facts (historical, cultural, architectural, gastronomic, culinary, etc, etc, etc......!), numerous intriguing locations....it all added up to some of the best hours we've spent in New York City or anywhere! A truly great way to get a feel (and a taste!) for a place -- HIGHLY recommended! You will enjoy! |

| My friend and I had planned to take the tour on Saturday, June 24, 2006. Unfortunately, she had a famiy emergency at home and we had to leave New York in the early morning hour to get back to New Jersey. We plan on coming to take the tour in the fall on our bi-annual visit. At that time, I will be more than happy to fill our a questionaire. |

| This was the most fun we had all weekend! Two families, one from the West Coast, with 5 kids between us.....Our guide was Kurt, and we loved him! Obviously he is a foodie, he loves NY, loves the whole renovation of the meatpacking district....he's a hoot. His stories and the delivery were fantastic, the food was dreamy, and the history of the whole place is too cool.
I had done the tour of the Village a few months ago and loved that as well, but this one was so much better....mainly because of our guide. I would (and will) reccomend this to friends! |

We have a great time, our tour guide was awsome!

| We have a grea t time on the Chelsea Market tour. Our tour guide was excellent and made it lots of fun for all. We did however get a little bored walking around indoors for the 1st 2 hours. We did the Greenwich Village Tour last fall and I would highly recommend that one if I had a choice - much more interesting!, lots of history and a great walking tour! |

We LOVED it!

| My daughter and I planned a day in the city and decided to do the Chelsea Market tour. We had an absolute ball! Darryl was a doll, very informative and lots of fun. I've been on the Greenwich Village tour (also great!) and I was pleased to see how different but fantastic both tours were. We really enjoyed all of the tastings, including the more unusual salt tasting (definately my first) to the delicious gelato. All of the stores in the market are such wonderful specialty stores, with so many choices. It was fun watching native New Yorkers do their morning shop in the market while we were waiting for our tour to begin. We loved all of the history of both the market and the meatpacking district. Knowing that I was in the same building as the "Food Network" was a definite plus for me. I wish I lived closer so I could take advantage of all of the great shopping that Chelsea Market offers. I highly recommend this tour to both out of towners as well as locals. |
