| Spices, oil, and tea--the highlights of the tour. We could have done without chocolate repetitions (even though we did not have chocolate in each place).
Emily was charming, positive, and socially skilled. She presented interesting tidbits. |

| This was an excellent tour of Chicago neighborhoods. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and provided excellent tips and information. The food samples were delicious and plentiful. Our entire group seemed to enjoy the tour very much. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to see several different neighboorhoods and that likes a variety of different foods. |

| I took this tour at the end of October. Although it was cold the walking, eating and the tour guide made me forget how cold it really was. I enjoyed every minute of this 3 + hour tour. My favorite stop was the pizza. Absolutely DELICIOUS!! I highly recommend this tour. You'll have no regrets. |

| A fun way to get to know the Gold Coast, Old Town, and Lincoln Park areas. Rebecca did a great job as an upbeat and enthusiastic guide with her perspective on the different areas and knowledge of the places we visited. Plus, the food samples were yummy! |

| I greatly enjoyed the afternoon I spent walking and eating myself through the North Chicago neigborhoods. It was a nice oppurtunity to get to see where many of the locals eat and shop. Our tour guide was phenomonal as well.
Thanks, Jason |

| These folks are outstanding. The tour had only one slot left,l but after sending an email they made sure my wife could join the same tour.
The guide new her stuff and was very outgoing. The stops in the various eateries were well chosen and executed. We loved some so much we went back to buy some exellent items (food).

| We really enjoyed the walking tour and the various tastings. The places we visited were unique with quality products. They are places I probably would not have entered if it were not for the tour. I will be sure to stop by or order online now that I know how good they are.
The information shared about the neighborhoods was also very interesting. Our guide did a great job. I highly recommend this tour to visitors and to Chicago natives! |

| I attended this tour by myself. The tour guide was excellent, and the people on the tour were very friendly. I had a wonderful time and met some nice new friends. We went to 8 different establishments that I would never, ever have found on my own. Not only did we learn about the food, but our guide told us about the different homes of interest as we walked by. It was a lot of walking, but this was good as I could digest my food and burn off some of the calories. The pizza restaurant gave us a full serving of delicious stuffed pizza. In most of the establishments we were greeted by the owner. This tour is definitely worth it. If you're hesitating at all, don't!! You will love it. The only improvement would be if we had been able to go to a bakery. |

| I was in Chicago for a long weekend with my husband who was attending a seminar on Friday; therefore, I found myself with a free day. I had been to Chicago multiple times in the past while on business and never had time to "see" the city. I am a fan of Trip Advisors and have used it to plan many trips and thus resorted to reviews of top attractions for Chicago before attending. Excellent, consistent reviews by past customers led me to the Near North Tour. Weather was cool and perfect for walking, our guide, Jennifer, was enthusiastic, informative and fun and the historical information and the food were excellent. I would highly reccomend the tour to others! |
