Foods of NY Tours Chelsea Market Food Tour & High Line Park

Overview
We are the pioneers of NYC food tours since 1999!

Our tour will not only leave you full with EIGHT TASTINGS (not samples like on other Chelsea Market tours), but will include under-the-radar historical tales of Chelsea Market, like how it used to be a factory for Nabisco and the origin of the Oreo cookie. In addition to the trendy and bustling spots on the main floor, we will also visit Chelsea Local downstairs, where locals actually shop for their food.

8 tastings are included with this tour with two opportunities to sit down. All tastings are done inside Chelsea Market. We will make sure you leave full and satisfied with a buttermilk biscuit, homemade Italian crostata, NYC #1 hot dog, Pizza, Gelato and much much more!

Once outside, walk on the High Line, NYCā€™s elevated public park. Youā€™ll hear compelling tales of the rail line that once served the West Sideā€™s factories and butchers. Youā€™ll wander through the Meatpacking District and find out how this area went from not to hot!

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.
