My daughters from TX and MO (ages 27 and 29 ) and I met in NYC for a week of shows, shopping, and sightseeing. This tour was absolutely one of our very favorite things! We're telling all of our friends that it's a MUST for their next trip to Manhattan. Wendy was our tour guide and she was AMAZING!!! She was so knowledgable and funny too! The history and stories of the place and her own life growing up in the area were fantastic. We just couldn't get enough. We'll be returning next summer and plan to take another one of your tours. Thanks so much!!!

I enjoyed this tour. I think it would have been more fun if we had spent more time outside Chelsea Market....also a bit more variety in the types of food offerred would be a good idea (fewer breads). Overall, this was an area I would never visit on my own and it was fun to see it through the eyes of someone who was very familiar with the area.

I'm a New Yorker excited about showing off my city
Fri, Aug 12, 05   12:00 PM resafremed Female 60-69 Local Individual
There are only superlatives to descirbe our 3 hour tour with Cindy. I was born and raised in NYC and always knew this area as the meat packer's district. I was impressed with the work being done to preserve it as well as the artistic view that the developers have. The food tasting was good but more importantly I enjoyed the descriptions, history and interesting tidbits about this area. I've already recommended it to several of my friends.

Barry was a great tour guide full of interesting information about the restaurants, bakeries and food stores visited in addition to the area of Greenwich village. We were fortunate enough to return during our NY visit to the village for shopping and dinner and look forward to sharing our knowledge and purchases with friends and family.

Guide was excellent and tour was fun.

Sorry I draw a blank on our guide's name but he was fun and very entertaining. He had a great understanding about the area and history. I enthusiastically recommend the market tour itself but not necessarily the meat packing portion of it. Might have been better if the weather was not so hot. Fun day. It would be great if you were able to start other tours in the great and diverse city of New York.

Absolutley loved the tour! Kurt was GREAT and made the experience that much more enjoyable. Certainly liked learning about an area that we had never been to and the changes that are ensuing. I would like to take this tour every year to see the new changes each time. And of course the choices of food were superb. Thank you for a great day, can't wait to do it all over again. Keep up the good work. Ann

Best three hours spent in NYC.
Fri, Aug 12, 05   10:30 AM nancykj Female 40-49 Local Family With Children
Our tour guide, Michael, was fantastic. We learned about local architecture, how the neighborhood has changed and evolved over the past couple hundred years. We got a pretty good idea of the lives of the immigrants who have passed through the area, and of how important the role of food is/was to these different ethic groups because it serves as a link between their native homeland and their new home. Michael's stories of the artists and intellectual movers and shakers were captivating and his genuine interactions with the local residents really gave us the sense that the Village has a small town feel. We look forward to visiting many of the great restaurants we were introduced to.

The tour was a little long but definitley worth our while! We ate some amazing food and got great ideas as where to book a great dinner reservation! (which we did and the food was amazing!!!) If you like food, good laughs, and a little exersice, this tour is for you! We took this tour on an extremely hot NYC day and our tour guide gave us bottles and water from the beginning and let us stop to buy more or go to the restrooms whenever anyone needed to! It was a great way to see the Village!

Yummy!

Very informative, providing just enough information to peak your interest about the area, but not so much that you are bored. Perfect amount of "samples" that you are satisfied with this culinary experience. The brochure provided is extensive and extremely helpful, giving info on just about all the great spots for food, drink and gourmet shopping in the village. The tour is definitely worth it for all those who love food. Discounts and coupons are provided in the booklet so that you can go back and purchase from some of the specialty stores.

Tue, Aug 9, 05   11:00 AM denangelica Female 20-29 International Tourist(s) Individual
I wanted to explore the Village with some background on the history and with tasting of the restaurants, and I found the best tour ever!!!. It is a great experience for a individual who wants to discover the restaurants but not doing it alone. The tour guide was very kind and funny, she is the best!!. I recommend this activity to everybody. Greetings from Puerto Rico!!!
