| We all enjoyed-(husband, son-age 20 and I) the Chelsea market tour. We never would have known about this new area if it weren't for the walking tour. Each store was fun, unique and all the different food tastings were delectable. We did 2 food walking tours and both added a lot to our NY vacation. Thanks. |

| Great tour! Curt, our guide, was humourous without being obnixious. He was also very knowledgeable, and did an outstounding job memorizing everyone's names. I would definitely recommend this tour to my friends! |

| We enjoyed the tour. A bit of history, some fun trivia, and a very good guide. Toured some neat food purveyors which I will purchase from via Internet. Don't expect any healthy fare! |

| This tour was the highlight of our 4 day trip to NYC! Our tour guide, Samson, was great. He was informative while keeping it real. The food was delicious and the stores offered great treats. After our tour, we went back and shopeed for another hour! If you are not sure if you want to do this, take it from us...DO IT! |

| There is only one word to describe our day. Kurt!!!!! This person had so much energy and enthusiasim that I just can't imangine a better day. Of course all the stops at the market were wonderful. We have been back home now for two days and still cannot stop talking to people about the great time we had.
We did the Greenwich Village Tour last year and really didn't think anything could top that. We were wrong. The fact that this market area was basically void of people this close to the holidays made our day so much better. We actually walked to Greenwich Village after our tour and saw another tour being lead through the crowds on Bleeker Street and realized then that we picked the right tour for this day.
Again, Thank you Kurt, you made our day great. |

| We have done one other tour with your company of Greenwich Village. Both tours were absolutely fantastic!! The tour guides are not only knowledgeable, but very fun to be with. Took a genuine interest in our party and got to know us. The food quality is awesome and very diverse which is great.
The only slight drawback on the Chelsea Market tour is all the food comes up front. A suggestion would be to have half the food then leave the market to walk around then come back for the remainder of the tastings.
Thank You!!!!! |

| Our tour guide was funny and knowledgeable. Learned a lot about the Chelsea Market and the Meat packing district. Would recommend this tour even to a local person. I have lived in N.J. all my life and have never been to this area. I will return to this area and would love to do another tour. Will have to check your site. |

| We had friends in from out of state. I had taken this tour earlier this year and considered it one of the best I have taken. We took our friends on the tour, and they thought it was great.
Our tour guide was very enthusiastic and knowlegable.
I would recommend this tour to all. |

| This was a truly wonderful tour which I would recommend to anyone who is into trying out new types of food or who just enjoys eating in general! The local guide was a wealth of knowledge about the regeneration of the Meatpacking District and Chelsea Market which meant we left the tour with more than just the full stomachs we expected. They also took into account my vegetarian diet and my friends nut allergy by providing us with alternatives rather than us having to "sit this one out". Being indoors in Chelsea Market was a great way to escape 3 hours of the winter blizzards outside. Very useful take-home booklet with information about all venues visited (online ordering info, etc) too. Overall, highly recommended! |
