Bucktown & Wicker Park Food Tour

This was the second Chicago Food Planet walking food/architecture tour that our group of women from Arkansas has taken, and we've loved them both. Our guides on both tours have been personable and quite knowledgable about Chicago architecture and history, and the various food tastings have been diversified and fun. Even walking in drizzling rain didn't "dampen" our enjoyment this year! The Mah Jongg girls from Arkansas

Our guide was very knowledgeable about the neighborhood, its history, architecture, and the restaurants. I would recommend the tour to people visiting Chicago as well as locals. Well organized, fun, and reasonably priced.

I can't stop talking about this tour! It was so much fun, the food was great (and plentiful) and we learned a lot about the Bucktown/Wicker Park neighborhood. Our guide was terrific--knowledgeable and fun. We went to places we would have unfortunately overlooked..and we will definitely be going back to visit these great places. Can't recommend this highly enough!!

Loved the tour. Thought that it would be only about different types of food,but was pleasantly surprised that there was a TON of information about the neighborhoods we were walking through; really interesting to learn the past history as well. Our tour guide was funny and had lots of interesting tidbits and kept our attention the entire time!

We really enjoyed Kent's food tour of Wicker Park and Bucktown. A nice, unexpected addition was the historical and cultural commentary he provided. We were educated AND got some great food!

I love all the Food Planet Tours and so will you..... no doubt!! But my favorite is the Buck Town/Wicker Park tour. What a fantastic tour, the area is awesome, the food is absolutely YUMMY and the guides are so informative. I've been on this particular tour twice now because I keep wanting to bring more and more friends on this delightful tour. You will not be disappointed! Number one favorite food on this tour..... hands down it's always HOT CHOCOLATE!!!

Overall I did enjoy the tour, but I think there was a little too much sightseeing than tasting. I thought we should have visited a few more restaurants and less houses.

The history of the neighborhood and food was excellent! The only negative is finding some where to park!!!

The tour guild was well-informed. The ethnic foods were more than anticipated. Although I was born and raised in Chicago on the Northwest side, I had never been to Bucktown or Wicker Park. Our group had a wonder experience.

What a great way to learn about the historical tranisiton of Wicker Park and Buck Town and at the same time experience some of the great restaurants and delis in the area. The tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. We had a great afternoon.
