    I went on this tour this past weekend and it was an amazing experience . Colleen was my guide, and I am not sure if I would’ve had the same experience with another guide. She was very energetic, informative, and engaging. She threw in tidbits of Chicago history, as well as little known facts. She was able to not only suggest/recommend different restaurants/bars in the area, but also tell why she liked one more than the other. She was able to answer all questions, and also was patient with me as I tried to accommodate Chicago’s strict parking rules, and having to leave the tour twice to feed the meter/charge my phone :/. Thanks for all your help Colleen!!! A+++

    Anne was very knowledgeable about the local food as well as architecture. It was lovely to get both experiences of the local scenery as well as food/drinks! I definitely feel like we got our money worth and would recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun afternoon in the city!

    Susie was my guide on a solo tour and she was awesome! The food was great and she shared a ton of interesting information about the history and architecture of Chicago. I’d highly recommend this tour. Try to book with Susie if possible!

    This was a fantastic tour. Our guide was so friendly. Lots to eat and even more to see. We will definitely do another one. The customer service was so accommodating and easy to use. They even sent reminder messages with time and location.

    Elizabeth was our guide and she was very knowledgeable about the history of the food we ate and answered all the questions we had. It was a fun 3 hours with plenty of food to keep us full!

    Suzy was our tour guide and she did a fantastic job of not only taking us from location to location but giving us a history of the locations that we were eating at. The short walk in between locations was helpful so you were not too full to eat at the next location!
