Chelsea Market/Meatpacking Dist Food Tasting Tour

Our Tour Guide, Daryl was fun and informative. While I enjoyed the inside tour of the Market ,I prefered the outside portion of the tour and would recommend that this part be extended. The Salt Tasting was gimicky and I would substitute it with something else. We prefered the Greenich Village tour to this one but we had a great time nontheless!

we have recently returned from our third trip to New York from the UK, having visited the Greenwich village food tour 2 yrs ago, we looked forward to the Chelsea food tour this time round. From start to finish the tour was informative, fun and the best way to spend 3 hours with an exceptional guide in Curt. If you do one thing on your visit go on this tour.

Exceeded our expectations. Our guide was outstanding, the variety of foods and the insight gained on the location and food industry was terriffic. Exceptional value.

We had taken the Greenwich Village tour before with family and decided to reccommend we take the meat packing while in with friends (8) in total. Curt the guide/entertainment was great, very informative, funny and really added to the experiance. We and our friends had a really good time and they all said they would take other tours by your company again when in the city. Cudos to your choice of employees!!! Food was plentiful and choices well thought out. Keep Up the good work and we will return for the new Greenwhich Village tour in the future.

I would highly recommend to anyone and everyone! Our tour guide was hilarious, the food was delicious and the information and fun was useful.

Absolutely fantastic. Kurt - our tour guide - really made the tour. There were some great tastings, a good variety and lots of interesting information about the food and the market.

Very iinteresing tour about food and history of the area. Our guide (Kirk? canadian, comedian) was great and very detail oriented with all participants. The tastings were very good and the portions pretty big. The whole history, food recipes and area tips were great. We want to do the other tours in the future.

I read quite a few reviews before booking this tour and to be totally honest I have to agree with the one that said that you could have done it on your own. Aside from the few tastings that we had. That by the way, were not enough for lunch. It was an ok tour. My husband and I got there an hour and a half early and walked around on our own. It turns out everywhere we went on our own was part of the tour. I was bored from the start. Don't be fooled by the location (Chelsea Market). It has absolutely nothing to do with the food network. I did however enjoy our tour guide. I can't remember his name. He was the red head. He was actually the best part of the tour. All in all, I guess the price was reasonable. Had I paid any more than $40.00 I would have felt ripped off.

If you would like to have a very informative as well as gourmet delight afternoon - take this tour. Our guide was fun, kept the tour moving at a reasonable pace, and made each business we toured very personal with details that indicated someone did some great research. You will walk away wanting to participate in more tours and NYC seemed a little more managable for the novice tourist. We will come back and enjoy other offerings!

We arrived as the last part of our Zerve tour group and were welcomed by our tour guide. The food tastings were great; our guide was knowledgable about the food, the restaurants, and the history of Chelsea Market and the meat-packing district. He knew so many details, it was like a mini-history class but interesting. It was very enjoyable and has induced me to return and try out various spots in the area.
