| We were in NY for 7 days. We stayed in the Chelsea area and found the Chelsea market tour online. It was awesome. We saw a lot of things in the 7 seven days we were here and this tour was, by far, the most informative and the most fun we had on this trip. If you are interested in food, history, or a wonderful morning/afternoon, take this tour.

| You can walk through Chelsea Market Place and miss some of the MOST important points of interest if you are not on this "somewhat exclusive" tour. Samplings of food and beverages are delightful as is the historical information offered forth by a guide who is energetic and entertaining, as well as informative and intelligent. The meat packing district has quite a bit of history that one would most likely not be privy to if not on this tour. One of the best offerings in the city. We also loved and highly recommend the Greenwich Village food and historical tour. |

| My wife and I enjoyed all of the food and history that we got from your tour. We love food and history and this was a wonderful mix of both. This tour was the highlight of our five days in NY. We both enjoyed the chance to try all of the foods that were offered to us. Todd was wonderful at giving the tour. We both felt that he enjoyes giving that tour and charing the different foods that one can get at Chelsea Market. Thanks again. |

| I am a repeat food tour visitor, with high expectations after the Greenwich Village tour I took two years ago. This one was just as enjoyable, informative, and entertaining. As a solo tourist in the city, it is the perfect introduction to a new area and a fun way to spend the afternoon. We returned for dinner and more shopping in the area later in our trip. |

| A group of friends and I wanted to try something different, and experience the city at the same time. We couldn't be happier having chosen Foods of New York. We're local, but find there is always something new to find here. Our guide was informative, and loads of fun. Who knew there was so much we didn't know about Chelsea Market and the Meatpacking District. Discovering the old and new New York is amazing, and the food was scrumptious. I'd recommend this tour to any one, and look forward to our next try. |

| I have been on the greenwich village tour twice and the Meat Packing District and both are wonderful. Our guide on the MPD was Curt and he was a hoot and a lot of fun. He made the tour. Thank you, Curt.

| The tour was wonderful, and Curt, our guide, was great. He is very knowledgeable and has a quick wit. We all enjoyed him as much as we enjoyed seeing and hearing about the "off the beaten path" New York. The food was plentiful and by the end of the 3 hours we were all feeling quite full. Our weather was beautiful--but even on a rainy day, the Chelsea Market/Meatpacking District tour would be fun as a good part of it is inside the Chelsea Market. I definitely would recommend this tour. It was a fun 3 hours and we all felt like we really learned something about the history of the area and got to eat some delicious food on the way. |

| We enjoyed discovering a part of NYC that we otherwise wouldn't have discovered. The Chelsea Market was wonderful. We especially enjoyed the chance to sit at the table at the back of the Italian restaurant to eat and relax. Our tour guide seemed to have to leave us quite a bit to run to set up the next food tasting though. His name was Kurt I believe. He was funny though and a joy to listen to. We had just done the Greenwich Village tour a few days before and had Mike for our tour guide and he had provided a lot of great history of the Village. I enjoyed hearing about the changes in the meatpacking district and Kurt seemed to have an adequate knowledge of the area. Overall, it exceeded our expectations. The food choices were great. We would definitely recommend to our friends. |
