Better Ways to Spend Three Hours

Tour was OK, but nothing that different or interesting about the food. Better, more exciting examples of "Chicago Food" can easily be found by anyone with1/2 a brain. And, the area is not all that interesting to walk, as opposed to other parts of the city. Our guide was a great guy, trying hard to be enthusiastic... but there's not a lot one can do with what he was working with. Our group seemed to be made up almost entirely of people who have traveled extensively and are "foodies". So the most exciting thing we experienced was ice cream made instantly. Maybe the North Side food tour is better. We were not tempted to find out!

Always like food tours. This one was both a food tour and and historic/architectual tour of the communtiy. There is plenty of food on this tour, You get a hot dog, frozen hot chocolate,anitpasto, falafel,slice of pizza,ice crean, and a taste of beer. we were full after the tour, You will receive coupons from the shops you visit ot use on a future visit. We came back the next day and did that. Overall very nice tour

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Ben, our guide was upbeat, enthusiastic and extremely well informed. The food tasting was terrific and the sights were wonderful. The atmosphere was fun and laid back. We have decided to seek out similar tours in every city we visit from now on.

Really enjoyed the Wicker Park/ Bucktown food tour......food was great!...both the amount and variety that was sampled. A good overview of Wicker Park/ Bucktown area for anyone visiting or new to the area. The guide was friendly and informative.

Really Nice Tour !

The Bucktown Tour and our guide, Ben, was very nice. Our first stop was George's Hot Dogs and it was a fantastic Chicago Style Dog with all of the trimmings. The other stops were very good also . Caution....DO NOT take this tour if you have a problem with walking. This is a 3 hour walking tour. Great historical neighborhood walk among local shops and eateries on a gorgeous 75 degree day that begins with hot dogs and ends with custom made ice cream. What more could you ask for. Love n Peace Sandra Miami FL

Family Highlight of Our Trip to Chicago
Fri, Sep 4, 09   12:00 PM Bettyvan Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
My husband and I recently took our fourteen year old daughter and seventeen year old son to Chicago for four days. The food tour was a favourite highlight for us all. The neighbourhood walk and food tastings were awesome and enjoyed by all. Ben our tour guide was great. He made the whole experience very fun and educational. We returned to the neighbourhood, rewalked part of the tour and enjoyed brunch at Bongos, a place reccommended by Ben. It was an awesome experience. We would definately do a food tour again!
