Last year we had taken the Greenwich tour and loved it. This year we decided to take this one and thoroughly enjoyed it. Our guide, Curt, was so charismatic and informative. You can tell he truly loves his job, and loves food!! The market area and neighborhood was so interesting and definitely a place I would return when we visit again . I am always telling people about these tours because we enjoy them so much. Thanks again to Curt for a wonderful tour. Gayle Lowrey, Pasadena, California |

This was our 2nd food tour with your company and it was excellent. It was great to see a different part of NY and our tour guide Kurt was amazing. He memorized everyone's names, was very knowledgeable, well organized and a great guide.
Keep up the great work. I have highly recommended this to many of my friends and family and will continue to do so. |

This tour was very interesting. I've been to New York many times before and I would never have know this market existed if I hadn't read about it through Zerve. It was very educational and the food sampling was good. It was 3.5 hrs long and by the end, I was getting a little tired. I would have liked to taste more food rather than the sweets. I am looking forward to doing the Village tour. Our guide spoke softly so at times I had trouble hearing him. |

We thought we were taking a tour of the Food Network when we signed up for this tour. We just laughed at our mistake once discovered, but were very thankful for it later! The tour is of Chelsea Market to start, where you will eat and drink your way through the entire market. (YUM!) I'm not talking tiny samples; you will be full for days. (Don't eat for HOURS prior to this tour!!) My friend and I are Vegans and I was pregnant so several accommodations were made for us--they went above and beyond in that department! You will learn a lot about the businesses and the market itself as well, which was very interesting. Then, you walk outside and throughout the Meat Packing District where you'll see several famous restaurants (inside and out) as well as other neighborhood features. It's a great way to see the intimate side of one of Manhattan's many charming neighborhoods.
I highly recommend this tour, which is well-priced, fun, delicious and interesting.
HINT: Bring a bottle of water; they give you one but it's not enough. ALSO, wear VERY comfortable shoes--you will do a lot of walking. Bring your shades & dress for the weather as you'll go outside for an hour at least. Finally, bring cash to tip your tour guide. Ours certainly deserved it! |

We very much enjoyed the tour, especially of the Chelsea Market. The only problem we had was that we could not hear the tour guide above the surrounding noises. |
