| We really liked the tour. The tour guide was very good and friendly. The food was good and we found out about good places to eat that we would have never thought about going in. |

| Our tour guide, Emily, was great! You can tell she loves her neighborhood and is very familiar with with it. The food was wonderful and all the interesting information on the history and architecture of Bucktown/Wicker Park was very cool. We will definitely try other tours from this company. Thanks! |

| The tour provided not only ample food samples to satisfy our taste buds but also gave a good overview of the neighborhood - its history and where its at in the present. Emily, the tour guide, was well versed and accommodating and the tour paced itself nicely. As first time tourists to Chicago, it was a different but wonderful experience from the usual tour of the major attractions.. |

| I came to Chicago for the first time and I couldn't be more pleased with this tour. It was the perfect amount of culture and food all wrapped up into a great tour! My tour guide was very knowledgeable about the area and its surrounding neighborhood and was super passionate about food, which I loved! It was great to have a down to earth perspective about the city. Thanks! |

| My brother came to visit from California and I wanted to entertain him with good food and walking exposure to Chicago. This walking tour was perfect!
I decided to sign up for the "new" tour that covers the Bucktown/Wicker Park neighborhoods primarily because I wanted to explore these areas by foot instead of by car.
Our tour guide (forget his name, sorry bro!) was energetic, knowledgeable, and entertaining. |

| My husband and I have taken both of the food tours offered in Chicago....both were great fun plus we learned about Chicago neighborhoods as we munched and sipped some good food. The guides are fun and knowledgeable. It's always a plus when you get to interact with the restaurant owners. There was more of that on the North Chicago tour. |

| After enjoying the other Chicago tour, I decided to try the new Bucktown/Wicker Park with a friend. This was an equally great experience that I would recommend to anyone. I live in the suburbs and this was an opportunity for me to see what the area has to offer. Next summer my husband and I will definitely take the Blue Line in to the Damen stop to try some of the wonderful restaurants and walk around the neighborhoods. The tour was fun, the food was great, and I plan on doing it again with family from out of state. BTW-come hungry to this one. You eat more than the other tour. |

| What a great way to get to know a city and an area that I never would have known about or seen during a quick visit to Chicago. Tour guide was fantastic - very knowledgable. Tour not too long - had a 12 year old who loves cooking and history and it kep her interest for 3 hours. Food was all great and a nice mix of items (beverages, food, desserts). Would highly recommend this to visitors. |

| My husband and I had a great time on this tour. We enjoyed the sampling of food and the information on the restaurants and the surrounding buildings. Our tour began at 11:30 a.m. and there was enough food to take care of lunch. we will definitely go back to these great establishments when we visit Chicago in the future. |
