| My mother, age 78, and I went just for something different. Not too difficult for her and yet not boring or limiting.
It was so great! The tour guide, Kent, was very nice, the food was a great assortment and the cultural/historical information was fascinating.
We loved it and look forward to doing it with our spouses or friends and taking the near north tour. |

| I enjoyed the whole 3 hours. The places that were chosen were a great mix of food cuisines. I expecially enjoyed the archectectural aspect. The guide gave us a good history lesson. I would recommend to all my friends. |

| Thoroughly enjoyed this tour.
Our guide was great - very entertaining.
Enough food for lunch was an understatement - there was plenty of food for lunch and then some.
Enjoyed the neighborhood tour as well - very interesting.
My only regret is that there is no ICREAM in my neighborhood!! |

| The best hot chocolate and ice cream I have ever had. We went back for more ice cream! The walk through the not very pretty neighborhood and urine reaking dog park could have been left out. The houses were nothing to look at. I thought the organization of the tour and the guide was fantastic! |

Portable Microphone & Not Vegan for everyone

| We really enjoyed the Walking Food Tour through Bucktown/Wicker Park areas and would recommend it to others.
Definitely recommend a portable microphone as we could hardly heard the guide with all the street noise and people noise in each establishment. One place even had loud music playing so we really could not hear her there.
It seemed this tour was catered to the vegetarians entirely at each venue.
We would have liked a little more variety since we are not vegans.
Our favorites places were Hot Chocolate and ICream.
The others were good but we had tried before except for the falafel.
Our guide, Kerry, was very informative and did a good job. |

| My husband and I did the near north food tasting last year and we loved it so much we had to come back for the Wicker Park/Bucktown tour. We were not disappointed! We tasted foods and went to restaurants we never would have went in to if it wasn't for the tours. besides the tastings, you also get to walk through the neighborhoods and hear the history behind the buildings and homes. Jess, our guide, was fantastic providing us with great facts and information.
The only critique I have to Chicago Food Planet is that they need a third installment of the tour! |

| This was a great way to spend a Friday afternoon. Our tour guide was what made the trip, and made me anxious to return to these neighborhoods! |
