| Beginning with our enthusiastic and informed tour leader our time spent on the Chelsea Market and Meatpacking district tour was fabulous. We were treated to wonderful tastings while we were instructed about our surroundings. |

| We loved this tour. There were four of us ranging from age 40-60. The market itself is super but having a guide to educate us made it all the better. Cindy was Super!!!! She was very organized, friendly and funny. We loved her! The tastings were great! We loved the "meat packing district" so much that we spent a couple of days there. We had dinner and wine at two of Cindy's recommendations. We also went back to the market and purchased food to cook dinner in our apartment one evening. We will be back and we will also recommend this tour to friends. |

I definitely recommend this tour

| The tour was very worthwhile. I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the history of the building and the surrounding area of Chelsea. Great tasing food! Cindy was an exceptional tour guide....and funny. My only semi-complaint would be to decrease the amount of time. It was a little long. |

| We did the Greenwich Village tour several years ago and when we knew we were going back to NY I looked the tours up again. It lived up to all expectations and everyone that went with us and that I had reccomended it too were also thrilled. The details our guide told us about the market and the foods were so interesting. And of course the food is unlike much of what we can get in Florida. Kurt, our guide, was great. He was funny and made the tour fun to go on and you didn't realize you were learning anything. If you ever create a new tour, we will be on the watch for it!

| From the first moment Kurt began our tour we knew we were in for an afternoon of fun. Little did we know just how delightful, informative, delicious, and entertaining it would be! Each tasting was more wonderful than the previous one; it would be impossible to pick a favorite. The history of the entire Chelsea and Meatpacking area was very interesting, and Kurt made it amusing as well. We highly recommended the tour to the others in our group and we will definitely return when we visit New York again. |

| My husband and I loved the tour -- he liked the historical references as to the history of the building (being a train buff). It was great to see an abandoned building restored to accommodate family owned business. The food was a real treat and Curt, our guide, was knowledgeable, humorous and considerate. It was a great way to learn about the neighborhood as well. |

| This was a great tour. The guide was personable and had a great sense of humor. He knew a lot about the area and about food and dining. Everything we sampled was delicious, and we definitely did not need lunch afterward. |

| My husband and I went on the tour this past Saturday. This tour and the tour guide Cindy was one of the highlights of our visit to the City. The market in the old Nabisco facility was incredible, it was so interesting to learn the history of the building. The outdoor meatpacking part of the tour was very interesting too.
This is a tour that is definitely recommended, the food that we sampled was well worth the price of the ticket to go on the tour.
The next time I visit the city with my girlfriends, We will go on this tour even though I have been once, it is something that should not be missed. |

| I went on this tour with my husband and another couple. We are very happy we did it. We learned so much history about the building the market is located in. We were very pleased with our tour guide. She could have talked a little bit louder because of all the noise in the market, but she was very informative and had a great sense of humor. We sampled food and baked goodies that we wanted desperately to go back and purchase so we could bring stuff back home. Unfortunately we didn't have time to go back to the market, but we will definitely go back again next time we come to the big apple. You also learn alot about the Meat Packing District on this tour. I highly recommend this tour. We have also taken the Greenwich Village walking tour and we loved that one also (same company). Our bellys were very full when the tour was over. Don't hesitate on this one! |
