What To Expect
Chelsea Market
Chelsea Market and the High Line are two of NYC's best attractions! This food and history tour features incredible insights, delicious food (it's lunch!), and fantastic city views (think hidden gem rooftop park). Our entertaining guides bring the area's rich past to life. Though originally residential, markets have thrived here since the 1840s. By the 1930s, the Meatpacking District produced the nation’s 3rd-largest volume of dressed meats. While trendy spots now dominate, five meatpacking companies remain as the neighborhood constantly evolves. Foods and activities typically include: - Hot dogs made in-house at Dickson's Farmstand - Fresh, hot mini donuts from Doughnuttery - Japanese-Mexican fusion tacos at Takumi - Flaky eggy Portuguese tarts from Joey Bats - Pan-fried dumplings at Nom Wah - Specialty beverage to sip on the High Line Beer, wine, or happy hour sangria available (additional cost) Please note that stops are subject to change at any time.

5.00Sergio was the best. He was very knowledgeable had great energy and made the tour a blast!! do not eat before you go on this tour. I made the mistake and had a bagel an hour before and ended up leaving with my food in a box from the tour. You will be fed with great food, a delightful host with Sergio and a great view of this part of New York City.
Be hungry! Great food...

5.00If you want to check out this part of NYC this is great way to do it! Our guide Chris took us through Chelsea Market with stops at wonderful food stalls and dropped lots of history and facts as we enjoyed so many yummy treats. Then it was on to the Highline. I had walked it before but didn’t know any of the building or areas history until this tour. It was a great way to enjoy this part of the city. Chris even gave us wonderful recommendations on places we should try and we did have the best bowl of noodles I’ve ever had.
Awesome guide! Justin...
