Our guide was phenomenal. He made the tour interesting, interactive, and informative, while also being entertaining. The food portions were huge, we were surprised at the serving sizes. Chelsea Market will be added to our routine stops when we are next in NYC. Highly recommend this to any NYC visitor and I look forward to another tour on my next visit!

This was the second time I've done one of thse tours and both times, Kurt was our tour guide. It's a great thing to do with people visiting from out of town and also a lot of fun for New Yorkers. Lots of great adn unique food but what we really liked about it is the all the extra history about the areas that Kurt adds during the tour. All very interesting and entertaining stuff. Kurt is a lot of fun and make sure that everyone enjoys the tour. Highly recommended!

I HAD A GREAT TIME! WE SAW A NEW PART OF THE CITY. EVEN THOUGH I LIVED IN NYC FOR A LONG TIME, IT WAS BEFORE THIS AREA WAS "ACCESSIBLE". I ENJOYED THE TASTY TREATS AND BOUGHT A LOT OF FOOD GIFTS. I WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO ANY ADULT INTERESTED IN LEARNING ABOUT THIS AREA AND WILLING TO WALK FOR FOOD!!!

Fun, Food & Facts --a great combination!

We had read the reviews when booking the tour and were very excited. The tour was above and beyond our expectations. Our tour guide was well informed and made it fun. The tour moved along at a comfortable pace and we enjoyed learning about the variety Chelsea Market has to offer. The different foods were fantastic and we were surprised by the samples provided, i.e. expected a bite size piece, not a whole cookie! We highly recommend this tour and have already told a number of friends and family all about it. We're looking forward to taking another food tour on our next visit to New York City.

We are four women from Valley Forge PA who were spending an overnite NYC. The tour was a fun way to spend and afternoon in NYC. The Chelsea market was very interesting and we enjoyed tasting all of the food. When we took the outside part of the tour in the meat packing district that was very informative and our guide provided a lot of background information that was fascinating. We actually saw a truck unloading the meat on to the hooks. There are many upscale boutiques opening in the area and we also went in a couple of the new restaurants.

We had been on the Greenich Walking tour TWICE before and enjoyed it both times This was our first at Chelsea and it was just as good.I personally think it's the best kept secret tour in New York.We are looking forward to your third food tour on our next trip to NY. Daryl was a great guide!!!!!

Great for nibblers

For someone who just likes a taste of everything, this is a great tour. I really enjoyed all the different foods we got to sample. Our tour guide was very pleasant and informative. Our kids (ages 10,12,14) weren't too interested in the historical perspective but there were enough diversions to keep them occupied.
