| We had a great guide, Caroline who was enthusiastic about her job. She not only guided us through the food tour, but had much knowledge about the areas we walked through. She was able to answer all questions and she made it fun for everyone. Would highly recommend this activity to others, in fact, already doing so.
My group just expected to be walking, going from place to place without much narrating in between, but it was much more than that. And we were pleasently surprised to the involvement of the shops on the tour.
We enjoyed almost every stop, however, we all felt that the Catering Chocolate could be pulled from the tour. It did not have much to offer and the people there were not as friendly as the other places, in fact, they never said a word to our group.
Thanks for a great time. |

| I recommended it to my boss. I loved learning different things about the city.
I will certainly re-vist the tea shop, the oil shop & the spice shop. |

| Our tour guide was extremely well informed at all the food stops as well as pointing out the history and architectural features of the areas we walked through. The food we tasted was ample and very good and the restaurant and shop employees were helpful and informative too.
We were surprised to be the only ones in our group from Illinois, we highly recommend this tour to locals, it's a relaxing Metra ride downtown and an easy cab ride to the tour meeting site. We plan to take the Wicker Park tour in the spring!
Go! Enjoy! |

| Jesse was so enthusiastic . . right from the start we knew we'd have a great time. What a great idea! One thought, though, is perhaps have the last stop going back towards the beginning of the tour. Food was great! Stops were a pleasant surprise. Spent more than I thought I would on vinegar and oil!! Thank you . . .will definitely try the Buck Town tour. |

| I can't say enough good things about this tour. It exceeded my expectations in every way.
The tour was fun and informative. i would recommend it for a first-time visitor to the city or a long-time resident. It is a great way to see the neighborhoods that make up Chicago and find places that one may not see on one's own or using the usual tour books. Our guide made it fun. She definitely loved the city and was enthusiastic in sharing it with others.The tour is well-planned. It is a perfect length with a good mix of stops. I never felt overwhelmed by the length of the walk. I can't wait to go back and explore the places we saw at my leisure. |

| We have a condo in the Gold Coast but decided to be tourists in our own town. It was wonderful. The group was charming--children, singles, everyone had a great time-- the guide was wonderful, the food was delicious, the information was captivating. There are not enough words to describe how much we enjoyed ourselves. We would recommend this outing to any and everyone. |

| This is a unique tour of the city. Although I live here and frequent some of the stops on the tour it was fun taking my family on this food tour and listening to some of Chicago's local history and look at the beautiful archetecture. The places on the tour are unique boutique shops with varity of food offerrings. |
