Entertaining & lots of NYC history

Our guide, Diana, was awesome! She is full of historic facts and makes it fun to hear about the origins of the Chelsea Market building. She always had us laughing! It seems she enjoys the tour as much as we all did! Lots of great food, great vendors, and fun! Would definitely recommend it!

We had a group of 5 from Hershey, PA. We did the tour of Chelsea Market, with Diana as our guide. Every stop along the way was extremely interesting. All tastings were generous and yummy! Diana is very knowledgeable and very fun. Thank you for making our tour amazing!

Perfect Way to Spend My Birthday
Sat, Nov 7, 09   11:00 AM carollieber Female 60-69 Combination Other
I spent my 61st birthday on a tour with Darren (guide) and my son, who lives in NYC. We had great fun. Darren was knowledgeable, considerate, personable and efficient. I enjoyed learning about the rich history of the area as well as the background of its present day tenants. We very much enjoyed the frequent samples and tastings as well as the special attention they gave my special dietary restrictions. I am looking forward to going on another food tour when I am back in the city again, hopefully this spring. Keep up the good work!!

We had a terrific time on this Food Tour
Sat, Nov 7, 09   11:00 AM CSMcFalls Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Our tour guide was knowledgeable, interesting and fun. He kept the group moving but allowed us time to shop as well. We visited a nice variety of shops on the tour and sampled foods at many of them. The quantity and quality of the foods sampled was much better than those we had on the Soho Food Tour. After touring the area, we would be very interested in returning to some of the shops and restaurants on our next trip to NYC.

Funny and Yummy!
Fri, Nov 6, 09   12:30 PM AngieBruce Female 50-59 International Tourist(s) Individual
This was the first thing I did on arriving in New York for the first time and what an introduction to the city. The tour was very relaxed and we were blessed with some lovely weather too. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and funny - occasionally including locals and passers by in her banter. Lots of history and tall tales of the area were inlcuded. The highlight of the tour has got to be the food. We started with the best pizza ever and ended with cookies and a cheese class. In between there was some very special food with the occasional glimpse into secluded gardens and gourmet kitchens. I chose this tour on a whim - it seemed a good antidote to travelling and jet lag and I was realy impressed. I should also add that the "samples" of food meant that I had to skip dinner that evening! If anyone is thinking of this, just do it! It's real value for money and was one of the true highlights of my trip to New York.

If you love food...

This was my 4th food tour with this company. I have enjoyed all of them. If you like to eat and try new food dishes, this is for you! I took my family from out of town on this tour and everyone said they had a good time. In addition to food, you do learn about culture of the neighborhoods, both past and present. The first 3 tour guides I had were AMAZING-lots of energy and made everyone feel welcome. Real professionals. The last tour guide we had was okay. She didn't have the positive energy like the rest of the experiences I've had with the company. It wouldn't deter me from taking another tour with them-she was still informative.

Can't wait to go back and do another tour. Not only do you get to sample delicious food, but you get some history and architecture lessons of the area. Our guide was the best. Droll, bright and very in tune with all of our needs. Sephra. Thank you.

Totally surpassed our expectations! Our tour guide was extremely friendly and very knowledgeable about the neighborhood and about all of the amazing food we got to sample. I have been recommending it to everyone I know and my husband and I can't wait to go back and try another tour! Totally worth the $, actually seemed like a bargain.

Great tour-delicious food and informative history
Fri, Nov 6, 09   12:00 PM monkymon29 Unspecified 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We did the Greenwich Village - Soho tour and were totally thrilled with it. When I booked it I was afraid it might be a bit cheezy and inauthentic, but thought we'd give it a shot anyway. I knew from the first stop that we were in for a good day. The food we ate at the Indian restaurant was absolutely delicious, and the other diners in the restaurant were from Mumbai, so it was clearly an authentic place! All of the other sites were terrific too - almost all locally owned for generations by the same family. It really felt like we were getting an insider's glimpse into the neighborhood food scene. Our guide was great - a young guy that knew his history and his food. And the other people in our group were sophisticated and polite, so it didn't feel like you were being dragged around with some huge obnoxious tour group. I would reccomend the tour to anyone!

Thoroughly enjoyed it--would do it again!
Fri, Nov 6, 09   12:00 PM kmccurdy Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
Showed me a part of New York I'd never seen or experienced. Restaurants were exceptional, many quite reasonably priced, and food specialty stores were authentic and filled with so much good food, it was hard to know where to start! Tour guide was friendly and personable, and seemed to vicariously enjoy our tastings as much as we did! Can't wait to head back down to the area to try out some more of her recommendations!

Time to skip dinner!

This was our third tour, and they just keep getting better. The variation (and amount) of tastings were terrific! Tasty and informative - - does it get any better than this?

We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The three hours flew by. We were impressed with the relationship that obviously existed between the tour company and the shop owners. We learned so much about the neighborhood. Lots of wonderful food.
