| Do this tour. It is one of the hightlights of our trip. Kurt was excellent as a tour guide, food expert and made the tour so fun. The tastings were good and the portions were perfect. We saw and experienced so many things we would have missed trying to do this on our own. Well worth the money and time. |

| This tour and it's guide were phenomenal!! Not only was our guide an entertainer, but he knew his stuff and kept us interested and eating the whole tour...plus, he memorized everyone's name in the whole group in about 5 minutes!! The food we sampled was wonderful and the Chelsea Market is such an interesting place. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who would like a little more intimate view of an area along with some great taste treats! |

| We really enjoyed the Chelsea Market tour given by our tour guide Bob who was great. You can tell Bob really loved what he was doing because he did it so well. The food samples were delicious and we had to go back and do some shopping afterwards so we could bring some of the great food home. Learning about the history of the building, the owners of the shops and tidbits about about the food network stars was interesting and it really made the market come alive! Too bad we live over an hour away otherwise I would shop in this market more frequently. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone and it was well worth the price of the ticket. |

| We had a group of family ranging in ages 15 to 71. Everyone in our group was totally impressed and thoroughly enjoyed the tour. I was concerned that the older ones in our group would not be able to keep up the pace, but that was not the case. Having most of the tour inside the meat market on a hot August day worked out great. Even our most picky eaters enjoyed the food and the experience. Our tour guide, Ed, was knowledgeable about the area and food, and we all felt that we learned a lot from our tour.
This is definately a place that I'd like to come back to visit the next time I'm in New York. I have taken the Greenwich Village and Soho tours on past visits and was equally impressed. In fact our dinner the night before this tour was at a restaurant that I had visited previously on the Soho tour.
I hope that Zerve will continue to add more tours. You've won me over completely as a customer. |

| The tour was very informative and yummy. Curt has unbelievable name recognition. Loved the Lobster Bisque. Nine year old daughter a little bored since there were no toy stores on the tour. We could have skipped the tea store and spent more time in the basket market. |

| Great fun- enjoyed Cindy a lot. Warm and friendly and very knowledgeable. Great sense of humor too. I'm on a special diet and you took such good care of me. I didn't feel deprived one iota! Went for my husband's birthday with my grown up son. We all enjoyed and look forward to the next tour.

| Our guide explained the history of the building, the concept of the new market place and a bit about how each business started.
The variety of food businesses was good, the food samples were sized properly.
Our guide showed us the progress being made developing the meat packing district and ended at the roof top of a hotel in the district that showed us the area.
Strongly recommend this as part of a visit to New York City. |
