Food and learning in an enjoyable setting - The knowledge our tour guide, Morgan shared was immense and relevant, he also took us to a hidden outdoor space above Chelsea Market. All the food we sampled was AMAZING (all diets accommodated). Beautiful day on the High Line (less crowded on a weekday and great weather). Allowed our group of colleagues to get to know each other better and have a memorable day.

Food with a side of history or history with a side of food? - A good time for our remote work group to get to know each other better while enjoying delicious food, drink and KNOWLEDGE from our amazing tour guide, Morgan! Native NYers and transplants alike learned a lot about the city's history and current day issues. We saw "hidden" spots we will now be frequenting and enjoyed a beautiful day outdoors with full bellies. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Gorged ourselves on great food, finishing with a walk and great views! - Svetlana did an awesome job! All of the food was delicious. It was varied fare in multiple places. There were great views of the water from Pier 57's rooftop park. And, we could really enjoy the food, knowing we'd have a long walk up the highline at the end. The tour guide shared interesting architectural facts along the way and was happy to pause wherever we wanted to take photos.

Wonderful experience, highly recommend! - Svetlana was an awesome guide, knowledgeable about the area and the food. She took us all the way down the High Line and it was so beautiful. It's definitely a part of the city I don't know if I would've toured without booking this and I'm SO glad we did. We were a group of four friends and we made a lot of nice memories!

Glad we did this! - We learned many fun historical facts, tried delicious foods that I may have never tried, and saw views we didn't know existed. Justin was a plethora of historical knowledge & led us at an easy pace.

An amazing experience! Loved seeing familiar spots in a whole new way, learning fun facts, and enjoying even better food - LOVED THIS TOUR SOOO MUCH!!! Would thoroughly recommend. I'd actually been to the market and other pier place we went to, two days before and was actually so cool to go back and see it with different eyes. On the tour, I learned loads about the buildings, cool fun facts that I've already shared with my boyfriend who went the first time with me and then tried much better food than when I went without a guide. If you're wondering if you should go, yes do it!!! It was fun walking the high line too :) Liz

Fantastic Tour of Chelsea & Highline - Justin did a great job! Tour wayyy exceeded expectations. He told us so much & knew the answers to questions, but didn’t go on and on. He was concise, on-schedule & had depth of knowledge of the neighborhoods & their histories. Who knew Chelsea still has an Abbey going back to the days of Brittish rule? Plus current news of the area, like that Google bought Chelsea Market for over a billion $ & what TV shows are filmed there. The food was delicious—especially the Portuguese tarts, yum. We saw so much and learned way more than I expected . Pier 57 and the views of the river, the man-made island park and Statue of Liberty were stunning. I wouldn’t have ventured to Pier 57 or Hudson Yards, so we saw much more than we would have without a tour & guide. Walking the Highline with explanations of its history and the significance of the buildings along the way was also fascinating. I like how Justin showed us which buildings and neighborhoods certain celebrities grew up in or have lived in, like Whoopi Goldberg, tech moguls & others. I also liked hearing the astronomical prices for a 1-bedroom apartment in that neighborhood. Wow. Highly recommend!
