| My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the walking tour!! It exceeded our expectations and our guide, Jennifer, could not have been more entertaining nor more professional. Other than the catering business, each stop provided us with fascinating information and taste treats. We enjoyed walking through the three neighborhoods and would recommend this to anyone. Our group was very mixed---ages, foreign/domestic travelers---and it appeared everyone was enthralled. Thank you for the terrific time!

| The Chicago Food Tour was so much fun. We got to see places that we would have never known about and to try wonderful things at each destination. Our guide was very knowledgable about each of the places that we visited as well as the city as a whole. We hope to be able to do one other tours in teh future. |

| My husband and I did the Near North Food Tour and loved every second of it! The tour guide, Jessie, was incredibly enthusiastic and knowledgable about both Chicago and food. She was so much fun! The tastings were fantastic and we loved that we got to see areas of Chicago we may not have seen otherwise. This tour is a MUST for anyone who loves food and wants to learn more about Chicago! |

| This tour was really good. My sister, daughter and I all enjoyed it enormously. The speciality food shops were interesting to see and it was good to be taken to places a bit off the beaten track, which we normally wouldn't have gone to. The Oil Tree shop and Spice Shop I particularly liked and, of course, the Fudge Shop! I liked the fact that these were mainly traditional family based businesses, using fresh and/or local produce. We went back the same day and bought some tangerine oil and some spices and, of course, chocolate!
Our guide, Ariana, was lovely - very pleasant and informative, telling us lots of interesting stories. Ariana - sorry we missed you at the end of the tour - we were so busy enjoying the lovely pizza that you had already gone by the time we left. Keep up the good work! |

| We didn't know what to expect and hoped that we would find something of interest on this tour. From the moment Jennifer introduced herself, I knew this would be a fun event. We learned so much about Chicago and the foods and stores that we visited. Jennifer was truly outstanding! |

| Did the Bucktown tour a few weeks earlier.......
Both tours were good, and felt the Bucktown was the best of the two.
Both guides excellent, but there was more food on the Bucktown. |

A great time for all

| My husband and I embarked on the food tour with high expectations and boy were they met and exceeded! We had such a wonderful time. In fact, it was the highlight of our trip. It really allowed us to see other areas around the city that we would never have seen on our own. We visited so many wonderful stores that we went back to afterwards! We have recommended this tour to our family and friends. When we return to Chicago we will surely check out the other food tour as well! Go on this tour..... you will not be disappointed! Happy tasting.... |

| My husband and I loved this tour, so much so, that we can't wait to take the Bucktown Tour next.
Not only was it very informative and tasty, but we met very interesting people in our group.
Our guide, Caroline was wonderful and very 'perky'. Even though the weather was HOT, she kept things lively. I would highly recomment this tour to anyone, even if you've lived in the area for awhile. We learned so many things about the neighborhood that we hadn't known before and now we have new places to eat the next time we're in Chicago! |
