Rory was an awesome tour guide. So much interesting history about both nyc and Chelsea Market (and the meat packing district.) Not to mention a great British accent that makes listening to him a pleasure. Lots of funny comments about “those Brits” —in nyc history —the scoundrels!

Cicela our tour guide was very good and despite the wet weather we enjoyed ourselves, there wasn’t to much walking and we visited a bit of Manhattan we had not been to before. We would recommend this short tour

We are a family of 4 with teens. We wanted a tour that would give us more information/ history about the area while not being too boring (for our kids). This tour met our expectations. Our guide was young, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. She told funny stories along the way.

Amazing trip…Gabi was informative and provided us with interesting information about the area. We got to stop and try the amazing coffee at the Chelsea market as well as ended up eating pizza at the Artichoke Pizza place nearby…worth a try!
Highly recommend.

Tour was great! We learned so much about the area that we did not know. Gabbi was fantastic! Energetic and she knows a lot about the area and was able to answer our questions (and there were many!)
