Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour

This was a great tour. This was my first trip to Chicago and I was here for the marathon and this was a great way to be introduced to the city. Not only was the food great, but the insights into Chicago were wonderful too. I can not wait to go back and do the other tour.

We recently went on a 3 hour walking food tasting tour around 3 neighborhoods in downtown Chicago and I just have to say that it was the highlight of my short stay. Our tour guide Jessie, was sensational! What a great personality along with wittiness and knowledge of the city! She spoke very clearly and had such charm. I learned so much about Chicago, which I might add, was unexpected seeing that we were on a food tasting tour. The food was fabulous and I tried things I would have never tried. From the reuben's to the chocolate to the famous Chicago pizza, it was simply delicious!

It was fantastic! I learned about the history of the neighborhoods and got to enjoy some hidden food gems.

This is such a great way to see the city! Much more than just a food tour. Our guide, Jessie, was absolutely wonderful and full of knowledge... great food, history, architecture and gossip. A perfect way to spend the afternoon.

Our guide Jessi was amazing!

Our guide was very personable and knowledeable. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Chicago.

Our group consisted of a grandma, an aunt, a mom and a teenager. We all loved the tour and found something interesting and learned a thing or two. We were initially concerned about the 3mile walk, however, no one had any trouble keeping up. We were very impressed by our tour guide, Arianna, whose enthusiam was infectious from the beginning to the end of the tour. This tour was exactly what I wanted. We visit Chicago yearly and were looking for a different way of seeing another side of Chicago. This was a safe way of getting to see more neighborhoods in Chicago. I recommend to continue to add neighborhoods or themes to these walking tours. Wonderful job....will pass on experience to friends!

loved the tour...the places we went...the amount of walking was good, amount of food was great!!! i really enjoyed that we ended at the pizza place so we could sit. it was hard to eat the sandwiches at the deli...might have been easier if they were already made for us (i can hear the thought...but some might not like the dressing, etc....i would just have to counter that with the thought that most people taking a food tour are probably not the picky eaters)---and/or just have a quarter sandwich and maybe a small amount of something else???? anyways, my husband and i thought it was great!!! our guide was fabulous--enthusiastic and had lots of good tidbits of the area, etc...which was very nice. we took a food tour in new york and this was actually better!!! really liked having the piece of paper with the info of the places we went...and the coupons. we will definitely order online from at least the oil/balsamic place!!!

Our guide, Jen, was both incredibly enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the various locations and products being sold therein. She also really cared about the group members as individuals; making sure that the pace was good for everyone and wanting to know what we liked best about the tour. I very much look forward to another trip to Chicago so I can go on another of your tours.

This was one of the best tours I've been on. Not only did we try great foods, but also visited neighborhoods that we wouldn't have ventured to on our own. Along with each tasting, was a discussion on how or why these foods were made/used. We found the oil shop and tea shop to be tremendously educational. And of course, the pizza was amazing.
