| My wife and I enjoyed the walking and food tasting tour very much. The tour guide was very knowledgeable . The length of the tour was about right and not too long. We did walk back to our starting point, but probably should have gotten a cab, as we were tired when we got back to our car. I would recomend this tour. |

| This was a very good tour. Just a few minor suggestions. We felt the portions were a bit scarse. We had our 15 year old nephew with us so I don't think everything was satisfying. He would have liked more. I agree somewhat. At the deli only 1/2 of a potatoe pancake was served. At the spice shop you only got to taste a few spices. The pzza was fantastic at O'Fames!! The four in our party really enjoyed that. At least you got 2 pieces. Our guide, Nicki, was terrific. She really knew her stuff. Took us to places we've never been. Would have been nice if the group had been able to purchase some of the items at each establishment. Being south siders I can't say we'll get back in the northern areas anytime soon. And, what about the out of towners in the tour. I'm sure they would have like the opportunity to shop as well.
Overall, the tour was a pleasant surprise; interesting and we had fun. Thanks.
Are there any other food tours available? It would be nice to know for the future.

| The food on the tour was good with some nice presentations at the restaurants. The tour guide was very well-informed and friendly. My favorite part of the tour was being able to go all over different neighborhoods of the downtown areas. We are new to Chicago andd wanted something different that the regular tourist spots. Because of this tour I'm sure we'll spend more time downtown! |

| Tad, our guide, met us promptly at 11:45. He was a very personable young man and I knew right from the start that he was knowledgeable about the city. The tour began at 11:00am and lasted until approximately 2:30pm. All of the food stops and historical/architecture lessons were great....although our entire group was from the Chicago Suburbs, we all learned and saw so much about the city of Chicago that we never knew! It is a lot of walking so you need to wear comfortable shoes and dress appropriately for the weather.

| My uncle was visiting me for a few days and I stumbled across this tour online. We booked it and had a wonderful time. Nikki was our tour guide and she was awesome. Definitely make sure you wear comfortable walking shoes.
I have already told other locals about the tour and I am hoping the company will add a couple other different food tours in the near future! |

| I took my girlfriends on this tour last weekend and we all agreed that it was a fantastic experience. Our tour guide, Nicki, was very knowledgeable and had contagious enthusiasm! I am a Chicago local and have been on the tour before, but it never gets better and better each time. This is a can't miss event! |

| We live in the suburbs of Chicago. We thought we knew everything. Well, we didn't.
Who knew there was a Jewish deli on Rush Street? Our guide was great. He kept everything moving along. I don't want to say much more about where we stopped because that is the fun of it. Wear your walking shoes and enjoy yourself. |
