| The guide (Nicky) was enthusiastic and very well informed, kept things moving, and introduced us to real gems of shops. The only downside was that there was no time to make purchases at each shop, and the coupons provided did not include online sales. However, if I am in Chicago again with free time available, I would not hesitate to take another tour from Chicago Food Planet. |

Eat some great food and see the city!

| We thoroughly enjoyed this experience. Our guide was great - very friendly and upbeat. It was a great way to see the city in a non-touristy kind of way. We love to learn about history of cities and did learn a few new things on this tour. The food tasting was fantastic - from the Pastrami sandwich to the oils and balsamic vinegar to the delicious chocolate treat. Definitely a great way to bring exposure to the gems you may never have found out about on your own. I highly recommend it. You will not be disappointed. Great date idea for couples! |

| My friend from Florida and I had such fun. We are both older, one with one new knee, and myself with 2 new knees and 2 new hips. Nikky let us walk at our leisure and made sure we were comfortable. We took a taxi right back to the oil store and the spice store. I have been shopping through them but wanted my friend to see the insides of them. Brought home alot! We are going to get the tea place on the web.
Personally I loved the archetecturial (sp) information she would impart. I was born in Chicago but had never seen where we went. How could you not love it. Since I have been back am sending your information to other ladies who I told about it as they are real interested in the tour. Next time I come to Chicago I am bringing a cooler and heading right for the deli. Wonderful. Of course, you must remember the weather was perfect. The tour was better than I expected and would certainly tell anyone who would listen all about it. |

| My husband and I enjoyed the North Side tour. We have been living in Chicago for 11 years, but still learned a few new things about the neighborhood. We enjoyed the food establishments we stopped at and found some new places that we will likely visit again. |

| Our guide, Jennifer, was great! The diversity of history, culture, and food was balanced, interesting, and entertaining. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour, the company, and the food. I would recommend this to everyone who likes food and would like to learn more about the Chicago neighborhoods. We'll definitely come again. |

| Our tour guide was Jen, she kept us entertained, fed and educated. Appreciated her comments regarding the 3 neighborhoods you pass thru on the tour. She got all of us involved during the tour, worked well introducing oursleves before we started the tour, she was great. The shops all nice and were all locally owned. Great Neighborhoods. At the "The Spice house" spot we had the chance to hear a presentation from the owner of the business, very informative. My wife and I had a great time - weather was perfect. |
