| The tour guide provided a lot of historical information and current developments in the Chelsea area and the market in which we spent most of the tour. The food that we tried was so delicious and the guide even pointed out food bargains, restaurants, and shops. |

| Our guide, Curt, was a very energetic, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable young man who provided an entertaining and informative tour. The three hours sped by in his company.
The food and sites were excellent. My only criticism of the food is that there was too much concentration on sweets. We started with a chocolate twist, followed by a mocha drink and chocolate milk, and ended up with double-baked chocolate croissants! I preferred the balance of foods in the Greenwich tour. |

I Recommend this tour!

| The Chelsea Market tour was fun and educational as well as filling us with food and drink. I never had farm fresh milk. The meatpackers tour was just as informative, the history as well as the future of the district was very interesting. |

| Types of food needs to be broken out more - too much breads and pasteries.
Far too much talking and not enough eating.
Did not enjoy the school master type tour leader.
Overall, would not recommend to other locals. Maybe for out of towners only. |

This tour rocked!!!

| This tour was by far the most interesting part of my trip to New York. Everything about it was a foodie and cultural enthuasists dream. Our tour guide was funny, entertaining, knowledgeable, and down to earth. I immediately recommended this tour to a local New Yorker and fello foodie who booked a tour for the next day. My next trip to NY will be sure to include a food tour. |

| This was a wonderful tour for tourists as well as locals. The atmosphere is wonderful at the Chelsea Pier and the history is rich. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and funny too!! Since we were the locals we knew a little of the background of the neighborhood but was unaware of its recent move to stardom. Can't forget the FOOD!! Great variety and oh-so Yummy. This will be an excellent gift for all my family and friends. |

Don't miss this tour!

| This was a wonderfully different thing to do. We enjoyed it so much we plan on taking the Greenwich Village Tour next time we come to NYC. Our guide, Curt, was fabulous...he was entertaining and full of historical information. The food was delicious and we enjoyed the variety. |

| This was a really great way to experience a local part of NYC, with a great local tour guide, (We went with Sue).
We would recomend the tour to any of our friends that have come to NYC (and they have also loved the tour)
Enjoy!
