| My wife and I enjoyed this tour a lot. From the history of the city to the tour of some off the beaten path of some places, it was great. Our guide Jennifer was helpful, happy, and very patient with our group. I have already recommended it to friends and will continue to do so.

| We enjoyed seeing the different neighborhoods and all the tasting stops were great. We will go back to this area on our own. We would have liked to walk a little slowly so we could have taken in all the area around us. Our tour guide was great. I would recommend this to anyone. |

| My friend (a local) and I (a visitor) had a wonderful time on the tour. The weather was perfect, all of the food stops were delicious, and our guide (Nicky) was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. I would highly recommend this tour to both out of town visitors and Chicago locals.
I also appreciated the coupons in the handout. After the tour, I went back to several of these business and bought gifts to take home to my family. |

| Loved that I learned more about some of the more off-the-beaten track neighborhoods in Chicago while getting to sample some great/ unique food. Unlike many of the people on the tour who were experiencing Chicago for the first time, I'd been to Chicago several times (my mom lives in the Chicago burbs) and yet I still learned so much about Chicago that I hadn't known before. As for the food, yes, some of these places I could've went to on my own... but would I have ever known to do so? No way. This tour introduced me to places I would never have discovered, and I'm all the better for it. |

| The Food and Cultural Tour was fun and interesting! Our tour guide, Shane was full of interesting knowledge and tidbit's that made the tour really enjoyable. The food tasting was alot of fun- not to mention tasty.
I lived in the Gold Coast area a few years ago and still learned about places, restaurant's and store's that I was not aware of untill the tour.
My cousin, who was visiting from New Jersey accompanied me on the tour and she also liked it very much.
I would recommend the Food and Cultural Tour for something a bit different and off the beaten track. |

| We had a great tour guide, very informative and friendly. But 3 hours is a little too long. I would recommend shortening it to 2 hours to maintain everyone's interest. The food samples were NOT very good... except for the chocolate samples. |

| We found some great new shops that we will visit again on our next trip to Chicago. There was a nice mix of history, folklore, and architectural "tastings" along with the yummy food tastings. There was enough food for the ladies to call it lunch but definitely not enough for the guys or kids. |

| I would highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting the Chicago area as well as for those living there. We returned to three of the 8 places to purchase items the next day. Our tour guide was very friendly and upbeat and very informed. I have already told several friends/relatives that the Food Tour is a must on their next visit to Chicago. |
