Food Tour Leaves Me Hungery

| A short summary of the food tour: The tour lasted approximately three and a half hours and we walked over two miles. The guide Emily was excellent and provided information about the areas visited. The food you receive is: a potatoe pancake, a glass of iced tea, several pieces of chocolate, a couple pieces of cheese, and a piece of pizza. The tour also ends quite a way from where it started which requires another half hour getting back. After visiting Chicago many times my advice would be to rent a bike and have a really nice upscale lunch. You would still have money left over for shopping. I did not feel the tour was worth the price charged. |

| I enjoyed visiting the Chicago Neighborhoods and learning a little about the history of each. It was great getting away from the hustle and bustle of the downtown.
Would like to have a few more eateries to go to - maybe 10-12 instead of 8 - and add some variety - such as Vietnamese, Spanish, Mediterranean. And I was surprised that we didn't have a Chicago hotdog! |

| 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. |

| My husband, daughter (26yo) and I were in Chicago for the two of them to attend separate conferences. As the Mom, I wanted to find an activity we could do and enjoy together. I found it in this tour! Both of them told me, after the fact, that they were skeptical about doing the tour, but afterward I got "high fives" and "good choice, Mom" from them.
We visited unique stores and saw neighborhoods of Chicago which we probably never would have visited except for this tour. Our tour guide, Nickie, was enthusiastic and informative. She had interesting facts to share about the shops, houses and neighborhoods we visited.
The tour was well worth the money, the time was surely well spent and the food samples were delicious! |

| This was by far the best guided tour I have been on. We went on a boat tour, bike tour, and this tour, and the food tour was my absolute favorite. It is a fantastic way to see the Chicago neighborhoods, and the company did a excellent job picking the restaurants and specialty shops to stop at along the way. Our tour guide was friendly, knowledgeable and a lot of fun! I would definitely recommend the food tour to my friends and family. |

| all 6 in the group would do this again. most returned to many of the stores to shop. i think it would be a good idea to have a tour for kids. |
