| My wife and I enjoyed the walking tour, our guide was energetic and well spoken. We think for the amount of food that you get this is not really a food tour. The spice and oil shops were great, however, we could have gone in there for free tastings anyway. The cheese and crackers, nothing special, we can get this type of cheese at home. Fifteen minutes for Pizza was not long enough, perhaps you should end there and let us linger with a glass of wine. We did enjoy it, but would not really say it is a must do. |

| From Nebraska,
Everyone should take the Chicago Food Tasting and Cultural Walking Tour.
I highly recommend that people make this the first event they do when arriving in Chicago. By doing this, it will allow you time to return to points of interest and purchase items you would like to take home with you. |

| Kate was a fun and knowledge guide. Two days after the tour, we returned to 4 of the tour stops and purchased items. This tour is a must do while in Chicago. |

| This tour taught us a surprising amount about the neighborhoods of Chicago and the delicious foods we sampled. Our tour guide was a delight and the food was a genuine treat. It was an excellent introduction to Chicago. We recommend it to both visitors and locals. |

| We did a small group company outing and all really enjoyed the tour! We were able to go to places we had never been despite the fact that all of us were from Chicago. The tour guide was excellent and we would consider doing this again! Thanks! |

| I thought the duration was a bit short compared to the 90 minute advertised trips by CAF (even then, the tour started at 11:05 and ended at 11:55... lost 10 minutes!), but it was an okay amount of time for my wife who wasn't an architecture buff. For a 60 minute tour, the detail was appropriate and entertaining. Would have preferred that it was more interactive and less scripted though. A couple of times I felt like the tour guide could have gone into a little more detail about the back-story for some of the sites. Otherwise, a very good and entertaining tour. |

| A very enjoyable way to see the City of Chicago that most tourist would not venture out to see on their own. |

| We had a great time on this tour with lots variety that kept it interesting. We had lots of fun on this tour and would recommend it to anyone. We learned a lot of history of Chicago, besides what we learned on the food tour. Our tour guide Emily provided us with lots to think and talk about. We had a great time!!! |
