Informative and Very Tasty

We had a fabulous time and our guide was well informed and very enthuastic in sharing the knowledge he had of the building and local area. We had such a wonderful time that we went back the next day and shopped until we almost dropped. The food was delicious and enough of a variety that I was satisfied without feeling I had been deprived. Definetly on our next visit to the city we will try another tour.

This tour was well worth the time and money. It is not too much walking as it mostly takes place in the indoor Chelsea market. The food tastings were delicious but what really made it great was the information our guide shared about all of the establishments and the building itself as well as the area in general. Highly recommended!

Amazed at the transformation of the Chelsea Market

I lived in New York years ago when the Nabisco building was abandoned. Coming back for a visit, I was amazed at the transformation of the Chelsea Market. The bakeries, wine vault, seafood market and vegetable markets were some of the businesses that lined the hallways of the old Nabisco building. I strongly suggest that if you once lived in NY and are returning for a visit you must take this tour. It is amazing how the entire area has changed. It was wonderful.

Our group ranged in age from 11 to 50 & we all enjoyed the tour. We liked every one of our stops (food vendors and restaurants) and food. The tea store was our least favorite stop. We would've like to spend a little more time in the meatpacking district, but maybe we saw all that there was to see. It was a unique part of NY that we wouldn't have otherwise visited or learned about. Our tour guide (Ed) was easy to hear and knowledgeable.

My daughter and I were in NY visiting my son. I highly recommend this tour. It was GREAT! Our tour guide was KURT and what a great personality. A lot of energy, very nice, funny and engaging with every person in the group.

Good, not great

We spent 2 hours in Chelsea Markets which was too much. It could have been covered in half the time. Our tour guide (Kurt) was great, but the tour itself was just OK.
