  Our Tour Guide (Nikki) was a terriffice moderator As far as calling it a food tour, I have to say that tasting oils and spices as two of the stops, really dosen't justify calling it a "Food Tour" However the 3 1/2 hours we spent walking was made very enjoyable by Nikki and seeing the architecture in the different neighborhoods was wonderful You really should change the name of the tour!
Rating: 4 Good way to know more about Chicago and its taste

  I arrived one day before from Spain to improve my English skills. I booked this tour by internet. It was easy and fast. The tourist guide was very professional. The group nice. All the places had a special flavor. (chocolates, oils and vinegars, teas and the famous pizza from Chicago.). This tour is something different. I recommend it. Concha

  Great tour that highlights places in Chicago you may never find on your own. The pace is perfect, the tour well designed and the experience impeccable.

  My wife and I enjoyed the walking tour, our guide was energetic and well spoken. We think for the amount of food that you get this is not really a food tour. The spice and oil shops were great, however, we could have gone in there for free tastings anyway. The cheese and crackers, nothing special, we can get this type of cheese at home. Fifteen minutes for Pizza was not long enough, perhaps you should end there and let us linger with a glass of wine. We did enjoy it, but would not really say it is a must do.

  Sorry I can not fill this out. I was very ill and unable to make the trip. I was told there were no refunds, which I feel is unfair, you should be allowed to reschedule. I did not even call because it clearly stated that. I was very disappointed to miss and would have liked to attend the event. Marianne Strzelecki

  This was the highlight of my trip. I loved the places we went to and the great samples we had. It was also so nice to have the little lessons on the tea and the spices, plus Jennifer did a wonderful job with the cultrual part and her knowledge of all the areas and places she pointed out was terrific. I hope another tour will be created with additional places for a future visit, I definatley would sign up!
Rating: 5 Perfect tour for our girls' weekend!

  Recently, three friends and I participated in the Near North food tasting tour. We enjoyed the experience so much we are anxiously waiting for more tours to be available soon! The tour was the perfect beginning to our weekend in Chicago. We loved the "insider" feel and the tastings. We could not choose a favorite place and ended up retracing our steps to visit them all again. This tour changed how we will all view future trips to Chicago. We have vowed to dive into the local neighborhoods and take a chance on small, independent shops and restaurants. Thanks for a great experience!

  My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the walking food tour. Our guide provided plenty of interesting facts about the areas we walked through and recommended some great restaurants we were able to try at a later date. The stores and restaurants we visited on the tour were welcoming and unique. Highly recommend this tour.
Rating: 5 Fun, but a good bit of walking

  We all really enjoyed the tour, but it was quite spread out. This caused some problems with our going back to actually do some shopping. We ended up having to walk about 5 miles to go through the tour and then double back to shop. Our shopping only took about 10 extra minutes per shop. I wish we were able to just do our shopping while on the tour rather than have to walk the whole way back.

  We had a great time with Kate, she was informative but also spoke candidly and not like she was reading from a script. I would recommend doing this tour your first day in town and then you can see the areas that you want to go back to.

  Kate was a fun and knowledge guide. Two days after the tour, we returned to 4 of the tour stops and purchased items. This tour is a must do while in Chicago.
Rating: 4 Great way to see some local neighborhoods/shops

  We started our tour at a Jewish deli. We sampled potato latkes, which are rather bland. I would have preferred to sample some other, more exciting item(s). The spice and olive oil shops were very interesting and unique, as was the first chocolate shop, and the tea shop. But curiously, the tour offered no meats or alcohol tastings. It would have been nice to sample a 1/4 glass of wine at the cheese shop or meat at the deli. Also we were not allowed to purchase anything at these places. I did not end up returning to these shops by foot afterwards (which sounds like a feasible idea but I will bet most don't) and now I will have to order online and pay shipping. I enjoyed the narration from our great guide, Jennifer. She seemed very knowledeable and was the perfect blend of informative, pleasant, diplomatic and low key. We toured local neighborhoods and saw some very unique and pricey private homes and a few historic buildings, and walked through Oz park. It was a beautiful day so that was a definite plus. So in summation, if I was in charge of this tour, I would eliminate the deli and second chocolate shop seatings and use that time for 10 minutes to shop at each store. Overall, I really enjoyed the tour and I recommend it. Its a fun way to "force" you to walk and learn about Chicago. The tour was a great value as well.

  This tour was great! It is a wonderful way to see the city and learn a little about some local history as well as where to get great food. The best part is, you don't have to leave this great food in Chicago. All the places you visit have web pages and will ship so you can bring a taste of Chicago home with you or order it any time you want.
