Excellent New York experience
Fri, Apr 18  12:30 PM wigginton1 Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
I had a wonderful experience with the tour. The leader of the tour was very comical and knew the history in great detail. The food was delicious and a real neat added bonus to the tour. This tour was one of the highlights to my first visit to New York. I even went back and ate at one of the restaurants on the tour later in the week and it was GREAT. I would suggest this tour to anyone who wants to get the real feel of Greenwich village and learn the history while getting to eat some really delicious food. I loved the tour and would do it again in a heart beat.

great sampling of fresh food, entertaining
Fri, Apr 18  12:30 PM Rafferty Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
We all enjoyed the tour of the Chelsea Market and its environs. This is a very interesting area and is already showing it's growth and popularity. Our guide, Sam, was fun and full of knowledge. Had I not committed to this tour, I probably would not have explored this area. There are some really fine restaurants in the neighborhood that I would definitely try when we go back. The food tours are a great source of entertainment while learning areas of new york. My only regret is not having an opportunity to tour the Food TV network just above the market. Hopefully, someday, the tour will be inclusive of this.

sam did a great job!! have him do other tours too
Fri, Apr 18  12:30 PM Weyrauch Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
my family (husband and 2 kids, ages 12 and 16) have done 2 other of your tours, and this one was terrific. we were pleasantly surprised, and sam did a super job in many ways: he learned each of our names right away (that's a daunting task) he joked around while teaching us historical facts his enthusiasm was contagious he was great with all types of people (my kids, the int'l tourists, and all) he made us feel comfortable and involved in the tour -- rather than being lectured he involved each of us with eye contact and fun questions cant wait til you guys offer more tours of the city -- how bout harlem area? or arthur avenue? or lower east side? or even upper east/west manhattan? we will sign up for every one -- we find it fun, informative, and yummy! you do a great job and thank you again to sam from sam/emily/john/ellen

Brilliant
Fri, Apr 18  12:30 PM provash Female 20-29 Local Couple on a Date
This tour comes highly recommended!! I am a resident of New York City and found the diversity and amount information presented, the enthusiasm of the guide, Michael, and the variety of tastings to be insightful and exciting. It was an eye-opening tour that exposes the complexity and richness of Greenwich Village's history. You come away with a heightened understanding of the area, the role of food in culture and history over time, the arts and culture of the area, and much more. I am looking forward to participating in the other tours!

The best thing to do in NYC
Fri, Apr 18  12:00 PM aaron3k Male 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
This was our 2nd tour with Food Tours. We have already done the Village tour. Our tour guide both times was Kurt. We didnt request him the 2nd time but we were very lucky to get him again. He is extremely funny and very energetic. He talks throughout the tour and never sounds rehearsed at any point. He makes every stop a lot of fun. All the stops in the tour were great. I loved Eleni's Bakery. We even stopped there after the tour for some of their wonderful cupcakes. After seeing the entire market, Kurt took us out into the neighborhood. Even without food samples, he made this section extremely interesting. We recommend this tour to everyone we meet. We have purchased this tour as a gift. We enthusiastically recommend this tour to everyone!! Kurt is the best!!

Very Nice
Fri, Apr 18  11:00 AM cpsales Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
I have been to New York several times and this was the first time that I have done any tours, and I was so very pleased. I recommended to my group that we try this tour because none of them had been to New York before and I thought it would give them a good "taste" of the area--they were delighted. We stayed in Greenwich Village after we finished the tour, shopped, and then ate dinner at a one of the restaurants that was recommended on our tour. I would definitely take this again, or try one of your other tours.

An excellent tasting of various food

It was an excellent tour of a variety of foods offered in just a couple of blocks in Greenwich Village. A little heavy at times but very enjoyable.

More Chelsea Market than Meatpacking district
Thu, Apr 17  12:00 PM rpvrpv Male 30-39 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
My expectations of the tour were to learn and see something about the history of the meatpacking district. Yes, the title of the tour says chelsea mkt /...... still I hoped to see more of the other part of the title. Instead most part of the tour was spend inside the market. The market itself was nice, the food-tasting was OK, but if you don't mind missing some explanatory details and marketing of the shops you can do this on your own easily too. Finally outside the market strolling around the area was nice and interesting. Regarding the organization this was more than ok and very good arranged. The guide Sam was on-time and very entertaining, so a big plus for him! Conclusion; all was well guided and organized, but I would not do it again. I will read other peoples comments first before booking a tour to be sure it will meet my expectations.
