Fabulous Chelsea Market Food Tour - We have made food walking tours our thing in cities we visit. This one was one of the best we have experienced. Joe was very knowledgeable about the history of Chelsea Market and the High Line...And most importantly the food choices were excellent.

Chelsea Market Food Tour - This tour was very enjoyable. Our guide, Joe, was a walking history book of NYC. The 8 stops were varied and very tasty. One of us is vegetarian and accommodations were made for that as well. Joe even helped us get a cab at the end of tour since we weren't sure how to do it.

Fun and quirky - Joe was great. A total New Yorker. We went as a family with adult children and had a good time. We ate and we learned. What could be better?!

Informative and delicious - The food tour of the Chelsea Market with Cindy on a windy Sunday afternoon was very good. Cindy was full of information about the area, the market, the shops and the food. Each sample was delicious including the tasty half a hot dog in my picture. Cindy gave us time to fill water bottles, hit the bathroom or buy coffee as we went along to our tastings. I definitely did not need lunch after our 3 hour tour and felt like I had a great sampling of the savory and sweet market offerings. Even the tour on the High Line with the wind was still interesting and funny just come properly dressed for the cold or the heat if you do this in the summer.
