| Our group of three girlfriends rated this sightseeing and tasting tour quite highly. Our guide was entertaining and shared a lot of info that we would not have found on our own. The tastings were great and we did return and shop at some of them. It really was a fun afternoon and well worth the cost . I would like to plan another trip this spring and attend the other tour available. |

| I would easily have paid twice the ticket price for this tour. We had an amazing time, and I will be recommending this to everyone I know! |

| My husband and I had a great time on the tour. It is a very interesting way to see parts of the city we wouldn't have ventured to on our own. I also liked that we learned a bit about each neighbourhood and business that we visited. I found the tea stop most interesting as it was most informative. Overall we were very happy with the tour. |

| The food tour was so much fun and the food was so good. Our guide Nikki was really good to explain the different food samples and gave us great information on the neighborhood while we were walking. I recommend it to everyone visiting Chicago. |

| We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves in early November when we joined the Near North Food Tasting tour! Our guide was Jen, and she was awesome! She kept us entertained and informed throughout the walk. What great architecture and fabulous neighbourhoods. Old Towne Oil was by far our favourite stop - and we went back the next day to make some purchases! The deep dish pizza at the end was our first of our trip, and remained our favourite! Thanks to Jen and Casey for making some recommendations to us for the rest of the day!! I was not sure what to expect on this tour, but I can say that we look forward to taking the other neighbourhood tour on our next visit to Chicago. Oh, PS - thanks for the great weather too! |

| I decieded to take this tour as part of a day and a half I had to visit Chicago and could not be happier. Jessica the tour guide was wonderful, full of lots of great information on food and the areas we were visiting. I retraced my steps back to the beginning and purchased items at most of the stops. I can honestly say I have been using the tea and spices I bought and am waiting for the oil and vinegar I ordered to arrive. I would reccomend this tour to anyone coming into Chicago. |

| I would recommend this tour to ANYONE visiting Chicago. It's a bit different to the usual tourist activities, you get to view neighbourhoods you might not normally see, taste some fantastic food and learn loads from the excellent guides. Our group was a mix of locals, US tourists and international tourists. Everyone was friendly, chatting to each other. The tour guide was very informative and really friendly. And the food - well we thought, prior to the tour, that the spices and Oil stops would be a bit pointless - but they were ace. And pretty much everything we ate was so tasty. I will definitely be taking the Wicker Park tour next time I am in Chicago. Book it! |

| Our guide, Ariela, was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Knew so much about her great city - more than just a job. This is a must do in Chicago, not just for the food but the information about the neighborhoods, architecture and what to do while you're there. Do this early on in your trip so you can go back and visit the neighborhoods and restaurants! |
