| Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. She guided us around with interesting facts about the Chelsea market and the vendors that were there. We got to see two Iron Chef restaurants which was quite a treat and got to taste new foods at the Chelsea Market. A great time was had by my husband and myself. |

| No better way to spend an afternoon in NYC than with a fabulous personal tour guide like Kurt who brings a little known neighborhood to life. His entertaining and historical background stories added so much to our enjoyment of the Chelsea Market and Meatpacking District. It was great to meet business owners, learn about their shops and sample their specialties. Lots of delicious food samples. We thought the price was well worth the tour and food samples that took the place of lunch. Look forward to doing another Food Tour next trip to NYC. |

| Our tour guide, Kurt or Curt ??, was the BEST -- very knowledgeable, entertaining and enthusiastic about every tour stop. He had unbelievable capability of remembering each guest's name; this made each person feel part of the tour group.
The food tastings were very good and ample for lunch. I was very satisfied with the quantity of food.
I would recommend this food tasting tour to be included in one's visit agenda. Don't wait to the last minute to make reservations. |

| This was a fun afternoon with a FABULOUS tour guide (Kurt). He was funny and informative and ensured that every person had a great time. I learned a lot about the history of the area and enjoyed visiting the shops. The food tasting was GREAT! It was a lot of food, so go hungry!! I think we tasted at 8 or 10 places and the food included cookies, biscuits and jam, pasta, bread, cheese, olives and various spreads, meats and condiments, lobster bisque, gelato and tea. I would absolutely recommend this tour and look forward to returning to NYC to attend other food tasting tours. |

| Entertaining and interesting overview of both Chelsea and Meat Packing District with nice samples from local stores which resulted in me going back to Chelsea Market several times to eat and drink. Guide was very helpful with other suggestions on where to go in the area. |

| We would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone traveling to New York. It was very interesting and informative and a great opportunity to get a little insight and history on a most fascinating area of the city. Our guide, Darrel, was funny, knowledgeable, entertaining and gracious. He took our preferences into consideration and tailored the tour to suit the needs of the group. The tour was just the right combination of information, walking and great food. |

| The history was great. Cindy was great. The food was not as interesting/varied as your Greenwich Village tour, and because it was all in the Market itself, several from my group were very familiar with the shops. They would have preferred more outside the area. My non -meat person, said the last stop--where she got penne with tomato sauce was disappointing. perhaps using vegies, or fish instead of oxtail. Also too much cookie/scone/bread. There were no vegies or fruits at all. Starting off with cookies was not great! |
