| I recently took both the West Village tour and the Chelsea Market and Meat packing district tour. Both are offered by the same company. I preferred the West Village one because the foods we sampled were more varied, more interesting, and there were more of them. Also it seems that they selectively chose which establishments we visited. The Chelsea Market tour had only the pickings in the market. In the Meat packing district there was not too much to see and nothing to taste because most of the meat packing places have closed. Both of these tours are a fun activity and the group is well run and the guide was well informed. Bon appetite! |

| I loved the tour. We chose this one because we had such a great time 4 years ago at the Greenwich Village Tour. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the area and history of Chelsea Meat Packing District. We just happened to have the same tour guide as our last tour. We would never have noticed all the little things he pointed out to us like the granite sculptures and structural details. The food was absolutely fabulous and we went back to most places and picked up a few items. I reccommend these tours to everyone I know who is visiting NYC. |

| This tour was very informative to us as we didn't know much about this area of New York City. It was fun (and delicious) to sample different foods from the various vendors, and our guide was great! He was knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. The tour was well paced and we had plenty to eat. Thanks for a great time! |

| I gave this tour to my mom as a gift for mothers day. Last year we took the tour in Greenwich village and really enjoyed ourselves. This tour proved to be just as much fun. The guide was very knowledgable about the area and the food and he was funny. We had a nice time. |

| One of the highlights of my visit to The Big Apple was definately the food tour as it gave a fantastic overview of the restaurants as well as insight into the background of area.
The food tasting experience was a culinary delight, I highly recommend that anyone who enjoys good food should make a point of going on this most entertaining tour! |

| Guide (Kurt) was great and very knowledgeable. Great highlights of the life in that area. Spent too much time within the Chelsea market. |
