| this was a great tour!
All the tour stops were interesting & educational. The store-keepers were welcoming
and friendly.
My sons, 11 and 16 enjoyed the tour and even ate pizza with spinach (these are
hard-core pepperoni lovers!) with absolutely no complaints, I think they actually liked it!
We went on this tour at the end of our Chicago visit, now I wish we'd had more time
in Chicago to visit some of the interesting places we passed by on the tour. |

| If you are like me, and normally do not enjoy tours, I highly recommend this one. The groups are small and the tour guides are personable and engaging. Walking around, I did not feel like a tourist, only a local walking with a group of friends. All the samples offered were fantastic. Make sure you bring an empty stomach, the portion sizes are huge and a great value for what you pay. |

| I wish we would have went on the first day in town because we didn't get a chance to go back to all the shops and cool places we passed along the way. We did our tour on the last day and we had a plane to catch. It was really fun and a great way to see neighborhoods that are not tourist traps. The food was great and the local merchants were pleasant and willingly to share their crafts. I highly recommend doing this tour. |

| Nice variety of food tasting interspersed with local and historical insights. The spice store was unusual and informative, as was the oil and vinegar store. Bacino's pizza was exceptional. A nice introduction to neighborhoods and businesses. |

| This tour was a fabulous experience. I learned things I didn't know about some of the foods and I am a real foodie. The food was interesting, but the real highlight was the information shared along the way regarding the neighborhoods and history and architecture. Our guide was so friendly and enthusiastic, which made the entire experience so much fun. The walk is definitely long so wear comfortable shoes, but it is well worth it! We told our daughter who lives in Chicago that she needs to do this tour soon - it is a great way to introduce oneself to the various neighborhoods. Thanks for a great time! |

| We all thought the tour was excellent! Jennifer was a wonderful tour guide and made the experience even more pleasurable with her knowledge, not just of food, but of the history of Chicago as well. We really enjoyed visiting the Gold Rush, Old Town and Lincoln Park areas. I have been recommending the tour to everybody I speak to! |
