We had a great walking tour with Justin! Rain or shine - we learned about the history of Williamsburg and stopped at some tasty spots. Great way to see and explore a new area of the ‘city.’

A tour with historical info and stops at a handful of the food stalls in the Chelsea Market and Market 57. Advice: skip breakfast and come hungry! Note that Lauren isn’t the guide and 6 isn’t the maximum number of guests. Our group had 12 people and it was fine but not intimate or full of “hidden gems” as in the description.
