Get a great feel for Hell’s Kitchen and all its diversity - Very fun tour for a long lunch if you are working from NYC and have time for a long lunch. Claire is so fun and engaging. She knows the difference between telling history and communicating stories that connect to people. The food variety was wonderful and you walk a way with feeling like you got a real feel for the busy neighborhood and not just a bunch of touristy restaurants.

Hell’s Kitchen tour - Nicky is a fantastic tour guide. He knows NYC history and has a great way of imparting his knowledge of the city. Nicky was also able to bring a personal touch to the dialogue. Each stop was full of the rich history of the distinctiveness of the area and how it evolved to this day. Not to mention, the food stops along the way were amazing. Guy-Kaku was my husband #1 choice and mine was the Cheeseboat, Khachapuri. I would definitely do another tour. Thanks Nicky!

Excellent Food Tour in Hell's Kitchen - This tour was fantastic--a wide variety of cuisines, and very interesting info on the history of Hell's Kitchen (think Irish gangs) and the artists who have lived there since. Nicky did a great job--he was very engaging and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend!

Fab - This was a really great tour and Cale was just wonderful. Full of interesting (and fun) facts about the area and we visited some fabulous places. We didn’t know this district at all but would very happily stay around here again, for the food alone! Thank you Cale for looking after us so well
