Darrell our guide was fabulous, he was friendly and very knowledgeable about NY and it's history. Beside the good food we sampled he made the trip a very special day for my daughter and I. I would recommend the trip to anyone who asked. When I come back in the Fall, I'll take another Food Tour but I would want Darrell to be our guide. Does he only do the Chelsea Market tour? He was the best. Thank you.

Tour was so much fun, from the delicious food, to our friendly and funny guide (Kert), from the unique shops to off-the-beaten path experiences. Loved Chelsea Market Baskets and Jacques Torres Chocolates .. and the Lobster Place was amazing. The visit to the highline was fun and the neighborhood walk was very informative. We will definitely try another tour when we next visit NY!

We enjoyed the tour, the food was good and varied, Darrell was informative and personable. Chelsea market is a great place an interesting historical building with excellent food. We also enjoyed a tour of Highline Park. It was a good way for us to see another area of New York.

I have been on at least 5 or 6 of your food tours and highly recommend them to my friends because they are so informative and fun. We had Kurt as a guide this time and I have to say that he was the best guide ever! He memorized everyone's names immediately and put the whole group at ease with each other right away. His insight to the inner workings of restaurants was wonderful. His high energy level and stories kept us laughing the entire time. I can't say enough great things about Kurt and the food tours!

Was even better the second time!

This was the second time on the Chelsea Market Tour but it was my third Zerve food tour. I went with my husband and college aged daughter on the Greenwich Village tour first, which they enjoyed more than Chelsea Market. This trip I took my with my book group. They absolutley loved it. I liked the tour guide better the second time. The information that I learned was not that repetitive. It is really a delightful experience and I would defintely do another food tour again, probably Little Italy next time I am in New York. It is not really touristy in that most people that live in NYC probably don't know a lot of the history that is shared with you. The food is filling, some tates are better than others, but it really doesn't matter. Go for the unique experience and enjoy! PS-They are are reliable and organized, and don't be late or they may leave without you!

A Great New York Experience!

This was my third tour with Foods of New York Tours, and they have all been fantastic. My recent tour in Chelsea Market was most enjoyable. Our guide, Kurt, was entertaining, enthusiastic, and very knowledgeable about the area. Not only do you get to sample great food on these tours, but you learn facts about the neighborhoods and history that you may never learn elsewhere. I highly recommend this tour company!
