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.
Experience Market 57, a hidden gem on the west side! Take in sweeping skyline and river reviews and try delicious tastings from our expert guides.
Discover the art, history, design, and horticulture of the High Line! The High Line may be about two stories high—but it’s hundreds of stories deep. We will uncover its secrets and enjoy its beauty.
Hudson Yards is a bustling real estate development within Manhattan - a mini city. It is the largest private real estate development in the country. It is home to Vessel, an elaborate honeycomb-like structure that rises 16 stories and consists of 154 flights of stairs, 2,500 steps, and 80 landings for visitors to climb.

Justin was very knowledgeable and engaging and had us try some delicious food. I would definitely recommend this tour.
There’s free time to walk around and grab a drink or a bite. Christian our guide was very nice and knowledgeable
The guide was super professional, accommodating, and very knowledgeable about the neighborhoods and restaurants that we visited. My guide James went above and beyond by making sure my coworker and I had the right directions to get to our next destination. For those looking to take the tour, there will be a lot of walking and eating. Dress accordingly. Be prepared for all types of weather and have a water bottle ready to go.
Knowledgeable guide. Seth, went out of his way to immerse us in the experience
James did a great job. Very knowledgeable and attentive
I had been to Chelsea Marker before, but Michele brought so much to this tour. Michele was great, really studied and knew the history, brought pictures to bring the history of the market, the highline and the piers to life. Food was really good, but Michele made the tour thoroughly worthwhile
Great food, wonderful tour guide and overall great time. Michele was finny and informative.
The food section is excellent. Chelsea Market is a special place and Pier 57 is also interesting. The mile walk on the Highline in 84 degree heat was a bit much. Nice mix of food experiences. Explanations of architecture on the walk added to the tour.
The food selections on the tour were all excellent. Our guide Seth made it a very nice day. He was very personable and had a lot of information, but did not overwhelm us. There were six people on our tour and everyone seemed tonloved it. Would definitely recommend it if you are in the area.
Overall this is well worth the time and highly recommended! Our guide, Chris, was incredibly knowledgeable and very attentive! His knowledge went above and beyond just food.
