| Our guide, Jennifer, was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable not only about the food tastings, but the neighborhoods as well. It was a most enjoyable way to spend a few hours in Chicago and I would highly reccommend it to anyone. |

| We all thoroughly enjoyed the tour. It was well thought out in terms of the food that we sampled. We really enjoyed the fact that we had a chance to walk through some beautiful areas of Chicago. In many ways it is both an architecture tour and a food tour.
The guide was very friendly and had a great knowledge of Chicago.
For anyone who enjoys fine food in a fine city this is yout tour !

| We had a wonderful time. The walk was easy and we were able to stroll along. I only wish we could have spent more time in each of the stores since they were all wonderful! LOVED the Spice place! |

| My husband and I attended the near north tour with another couple while on vacation. We loved it. It was informative, fun, and yummy. We liked several of the places so much that we went back on another day and used coupons that we were given on the tour. Our favorite places were the Spice Merchant (with a huge variety of fresh spices and employees that could answer all our cooking questions) and the Fudge Pot (a fudge and chocolate shop with amazing toffee). It was a great experience and we will be attending the other food tour they offer when we return to Chicago. |

| A few of the stops were fantastic, while others seemed like a total waste of time. I liked the stops that had an educational component, either a demonstration or some interactive element. Overall, though, the tour was a lot of fun, very informative about the history of the area. Not what I expected at all. We went on the hottest day of the year, but it was tolerable since we made so many stops inside. I think locals will enjoy this tour even more than visitors, especially since they can come back and shop at these places. Visitors would probably prefer some more things that they would not try otherwise. |

| I highly recommend the Chicago Food Tasting and Cultural Walking Tour. It was so much fun to go around to shops and restaurants that are unique to Chicago and taste different foods and learn a little about Chicago's history on the way. I think my favorite part was getting to walk through residential neighborhoods that tourists wouldn't normally see and getting to see the beautiful architecture and learn a little about different neighborhoods and buildings. Of course, the food was fantastic too. |

| We loved our first visit to Chicago, the people, the sites, the shopping...BUT the best part of our short three day trip was the walking tour!!! Jennifer was fantastic, very informative and energetic!! We loved seeing a side of Chicago that we would have otherwise missed! I would highly highly recommend this to anyone...we had everyone from Chicago natives who had never taken the time to visit these local gems...to tourists like ourselves from out of country, in our group, and everyone had a great time!
Thanks again Jennifer you were great! |
