My husband and I loved it. I am a foodie. My husband loves to eat but does not cook. We both found the experience wonderful. We would back to Chicago just for the tour. The three hours went by very quickly and there was enough to eat. We didn't even realize we walked the two miles. We would highly recommend the tour. |

Excellent experience |

Both my 17 year old granddaughter and I were most pleased with this tour. We take Chicago tours frequently and we both said this is the best tour we have taken in the Chicago area.
The guide was especially great. Her enthusiasm and knowledge was remarkable. I definitely will and have been, encouraging others to take advantage of this venture. |

Great fun! |

My husband, our 16 year old daughter and I were visiting from Atlanta. We were at a lacrosse tournament in Naperville for the weekend where our daughter sprained her ankle playing in a game on Sunday. We took your tour on Monday morning and it was so interesting and enjoyable she didn't complain about her ankle hurting, even with all the walking we did.
We loved the tour, our guide, Emily, was delightful and we would highly recommend it to all visitors to Chicago. We ate in one of the recommended restaurants Monday evening and it was fabulous. |

The Chicago Food Tasting and Cultural Walking Tour was a great learning experience in many ways. Not only did we have the opportunity to try some diverse foods, we also learned some things about Chicago. It made us want to know more! We also found out about some unique shops that even some Chicago friends of ours had never heard of. I'm glad they all have websites so I can order items online. We found the tour to be well paced and the guide (Emily) very informative. |

I would go again tomorrow! |

The food tour was an exceptional experience because the groups are small enough to make it a personal experience. I love to cook and our 19 year old son is committed to healthy eating and learning about the oils, spices and heart healthy pizza were inspiring to him. He also happens to be a civil engineering major with a love for history so this was perfect for him. My husband and other son also enjoyed the experience, my husband because you get to visit with all the rest of the group while you walk, and my 17 year old because of the chocolate and the pizza. We also loved visiting with the other foodies on the tour-ours was a wonderful mix of international, United States, and local people. I might also note that we went back later to purchase from the merchants and they willingly shared more information, gave discounts, and reaffirmed my thoughts that this was a great relationship you have with the merchants. Last but not least- Kent was engaging and knowledgeable-a perfect tour guide. |

The tour was a pleasant walking experience with guide pointing out buildings of interest, however it is a mistake to call it a food tasting tour. Starting a tour at 11:00a.m. with a half a greasy potato pancake is a mistake. Ashkenaz Deli had other items that would have been more appropriate like some pastry. If someone is expecting wonderrful tastings from great resturants this is not the tour for them. Since I live in the Chicago area I expected a different experience and was disappointed but I guess if your from Kansas you loved it. |

Our leader, a young man, was entertaining with lots of information. I enjoyed the small shops and historical tidbits, but there was actually very little food and a rather long walk between the last two stops. |
|
Great Time! |

I would suggest this tour to not only out of towner, but Chicagoan's as well. I'm thinking of getting gift certificates for some of my freinds birthdays. |

I went with my mother on this tour. We had an unbelievable time. Our guide, Jennifer was wonderful and so full of information. I can't say enough positive things about it. It was such a great way to se Chicago, which can be a very overwhelming city if you have never visited before. The tour and Jennifer made us feel more like locals than tourists and all the food tastings were great. I was a bit skeptical about doing the tour at first, but I am so glad I did. I would recommend this to everyone! |
