Itinerary

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.

Excellent intro to a slice of NYC!

Sergio was an excellent tour guide for my group of friends, 8 mature women. We experienced the right amount of food, sights, history, walking and enjoying NYC. I would recommend both the company and the guide!

What a fantastic Tour and "Master" Tour Guide!

We had an excellent tour guide, Sergio. What a jewel this company has in this young man. He's super enthusiastic, very knowledgeable, and loves to engage with his guests on the tour. He ensured everyone was thoroughly happy and was able to see as much as we could. The food selections were all perfect, we had a great time meeting new people, and would definitely recommend this tour service. Will MOST certainly visit Chelsea Market again now that we "get" the historical significance and the hype of this soecial place!!!
