| Nikki was a fantastic tour guide, pointing out all the interesting architecture on the walk, answering questions, and giving insight into the Chicago food scene. We never felt rushed, even though I'm sure we were on a schedule. She maintained her enthusiasm, even as the rain continued to pick up and everyone got soaked. We had a great time and would consider one of these tours again when we are in Chicago. |

| participants should be able to buy items on the tour as it is sometimes not possibble to return to the shops in one's own time due to time constraints, etc |

| We had a great time...our tour guide Kent was a lot of fun. It was raining the whole time we were walking, but it was still definitely worth it. Highlights were the olive oil and balsamic vinegar tasting and the scrumptious stuffed pizza at the end. |

Wonderful Experience!

| Wonderful way to see Chicago and to taste different types of food. We had a party of six, five of us were from out of town and one was a local and we all enjoyed ourselves very much. I would recommend this tour to anyone. |

| We really enjoyed the tour and our guide. She was fun and kept it interesting. We were not able to get back to the oil store before it closed ( stopped off at a pub), but they did unlock the doors at the spice shop and let us shop since Monday was a holiday and we were leaving before they would re-open. We went back to the deli the next day after we tasted the potato cakes on the tour. The only thing I wished to be different was the pizza, I think a good greasy sausage and pepperoni would have been better than the healthy spinach...=) We have come back to Indiana and told everyone about the tour and several of our friends are interested next time they visit Chicago. |

| I enjoyed the tour and the information. Our tour guide, while knowlegeable, has poor questioning skills and acted much like an elementary teacher. I'm confident she has no idea that she sets people up for never being able to answer correctly or in other instances, asks such obvious questions as to be condescending. ("Can you guess what language that might be?") The stops themselves were interesting. It was quite a long walk(4hrs), but I saw sights I would not have otherwise. I would recommend the tour, but not our guide. |

| The tour provided much more than expected. We thought it was a tasting, but it also included architectural highlights of the areas. I lived in the area covered for several years and never went to some of the places on the tour. The three hours flew by. |

| Our tour guide was warm, friendly, and knowledgeable of the Old Town area. I liked that our tour provided a variety of samplings. I have already recommended this to my friends. |

| I loved the tour. I am a huge fan of Chicago and loved the informative tour of different shops to visit, the history of the area and the places I would never have visited if not on this tour. I highly recommend this tour to everyone. A pub tour was suggested by our group, a restaurant tour and a tour of the historic houses would also be great.
Thanks for a great time. |

| Great experience. Enjoyed being able to get out of the city and see the neighborhoods in which people live. Great pizza! |
