| We have visited the city several times and this was our first trip to Chelsea Market. This tour was absolutely fabulous and informative. Our guide (Kurt) was wonderful and made the tour the highlight of our New York experience. |

| Kurts energetic personality made this tour a lot of fun! While at the same time it was very interesting & informative..This tour also gives some great restaurant ideas on where to eat in the meatpacking district. I highly reccomend it if you want to try great food, learn a little history of the area & have a few laughs along the way. |

If you like to eat, this is for you!

| Our tour guide was wonderful. Very informative and had a great since of humor. All of the food was scumptous and plentiful. I also liked the fact that we got out of the market and toured the neighborhood some also.I will definately take one of their other tours the next time I am there. |

| This was my third tour with Foods of New York. My first was the Greenwich Village with Todd as my guide. There were only three in the group (which were all my friends) so it was nice and personal. I loved it so much I had my husband join me at my next visit in NYC and I still enjoyed it the second time. This was my first tour of the Chelsea Market and Todd did a great job. He is very knowledgeable and friendly. I recommend these tours to anyone visiting New York and who especially wants to avoid the Times Square tourist areas.

| Darryl, our tour guide, was hilarious and very knowledgeable. He made our tour fun, relaxed, and entertaining. A trip to NYC would not be complete without going on a food tour especially to the Chelsea Mkt / Meatpacking district area. This was our very first food tour so we did not know what to expect...we were pleasantly surprised and recommend this tour highly. The food was tasty and awesome. |

well done -- wanted food tasting out of market

| We all enjoyed our tour very much and liked our guide.
I would have been interested in tasting what the restaurants had to offer in some small form. All tastings were in the market and while quite nice, I did not get a sense of what the restaurants in the meat packing district had to offer. |

Great Food and information!

| I go to New York City every year and I loved this tour. It was different from the typical tourist stuff and I learned a lot about another part of the city. The food was great and I bought several of the items right in Chelsea market. |

Generally good

| I live in Chelsea and shop at Chelsea Market so while it was nice, I two hours in the market was a big too much for me. But I brought my parents, who were in town from Texas and they really enjoyed themselves and I think that's the more important review. |

Great tour!

| I took my mother with me on a tour of Chelsea Market. Our tour guide, Daryl, was really fantastic! We were both very impressed with the history and the food. We thought Daryl was very knowledgeable, helpful, funny, and very genuine. We were happy to have him as our guide.
Our favorite part were the chocolate croissants from the bakery. Everything tasted great. Also, we were able to go on top of a hotel and get a tremendous view of Manhattan.
My mother is from Brooklyn and she was absolutely thrilled to really learn more about New York.
Thanks again to Daryl! |
