Itinerary

  1. 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. (1h 30min)
  2. 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. (30 min)
  3. 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. (30 min)
  4. 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. (30 min)
