| A full 3 hours of food, fun and facts on Chelsea Market. and area. Coming from NJ, I would HIGHLY recommend this tour! Could not find the $12 parking that was recommended, so be sure you have the exact facts on it before going (15th st. btwn 9 & 10th Ave.) |

| My daughter (NYU student) and I (40 something mom) took this tour and really enjoyed learning the history of the area as well as tasting the great food that was offered. I have been sending my daughter Elenis cookies and cupcakes for the last 3 years and was glad to finally get to see the bakery. We had previously taken the Greenwich Village tour and while the food part was similar much of this tour is indoors and seemed like less walking. |

Activity level was fine

| The guide was wonderful. the food was great and the experience was very good. Learned a great deal about an area that I would never have ventured to without the tour. I will recommend the tour to others. |

| Our guide, Kurt, was amazing. His was entertaining and exceedingly knowledgable. Our particular group had a wide range of folks and he was able to make it interesting and fun for everyone - including my 10 year old son! I would recommend this tour highly. My cousin was with us and she lives in New York and learned as much about her city as we did. She is planning on signing up for other food tours based on this one. Thank you for such a great event.

| I have lived in New Jersey all of my life, but I happen to see the article in the Star Ledger in June and thought it looked interesting. I calle for my reservation and then also asked a friend if she would be interested. We had a great time. Curt made the tour. He is so cheery, knowledgeable and considerate. I'd recommend this tour to everyone - local and tourtist. It was just great |

| We were invited on the tour by friends who had taken an earlier one and we wanted to learn more about the Chelsea Market/Meatpacking area. The tour was very casual but organized and our tour guide was enthusiastic and very knowledgeable. The food was excellent, the Market fascinating and we felt more like visitors than simply tourists. I have recommended it to several friends and colleagues. Well worth it; we are ready for another tour. |

Go for it!!

| I have taken the Village Tour and the Chelsea Market Tour. Both were excellent, as were the guides!! I would recommend that these tours be taken on the first day of your stay so that you have time to go back to the particular shops or restaurants of interest. How lucky to have such great guides!!! Thank you. |

| The tour was informative both from culinary and local history aspects. Our guide, Curt, was enthusiastic, engaging, and extremely humorous! The foods were delicious, and for the "little bit of food" we received we had a hard time feeling hungry for our dinner later that evening. Will plan on doing more of the food tours when we return to NYC. Thanks, Curt! |
