Excellent outing

This constitutes the second time I have taken the tour. I enjoyed it so much the first time that I took a group of friends and repeated it. Everyone had a ball. The guides on both tours were knowledgeable, efficient, friendly, and possessed a sense of humor. We learned about a variety of products as well as some local history. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys getting out and enjoying some of the history, architecture, and flavors of Chicago.

Enjoyed the tour

This was a fun way to see another part of the city. The tour guide knew a great deal, was friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and plentiful in some places (chocolate, deli, and pizza), but virtually nonexistent in others. The tour is more about the architecture than the food. Some of the business owners were very friendly and welcoming (chocolate, tea, and pizza place), others, not so much.

Great way to see a lot in a short time

The tour introduced us to a couple of Chigago's neighbourhoods that perhaps we may not have seen otherwise. We were greeted and introduced to our guide. She explained how the tour works and then off we went. The shops we visited were interesting and the food provided was unique and very good. We also were told of the neighbourhood and a brief history of how it became what it is today. A very informative tour to familiarize someone with the great regions of Chicago.

The tour was perfect for our group---a family girl's weekend with ages 24-84 years. Absolutely perfect. Tour guide was knowledgable and entertaining. The next time I have travelers in town I will be sure to repeat this event!

We had read good comments about the tour, so we went expecting a good time; we were not disappointed. We recommend the tour, and we will definitely take the other tour offered next time we are in Chicago.

Absolutely loved this unique tour!

This tour provides not only great tastes of Chicago, but a wonderful overview of the history and culture of the Bucktown/Wicker Park area of Chicago, a lovely area away from the other tourist-filled attractions in the city. The food portions were extremely generous. I've been on food tours in other cities, and normally you just get a small bite -- here they give you full portions at most of the spots on the tour. Highly recommend.

My sorority sisters, some of whom are from the Chicago area, and I participated in this tour on Sat. June 28th and we loved every minute of it. We loved the knowledge and enthusiasm our tour guide brought to the tour. There was not as much food as I was originally lead to believe and there is a nice amount of walking. We had great weather so the walk was a pleasure. Too bad there was no Chicago hot dog included in the tour, but overall it is a must for enjoying the unique beauty of the city!!

Great day with great food
Sat, Jun 27  11:00 AM dave_julie Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
The tour was a lot of fun. Not as much eating as I expected, which was actually a good thing. We were given the opportunity to taste different types of foods and learn about spices, teas and oils as well. In addition, our tour guide was knowledgeable about the architecture which added to the tour. Ending the tour with a delicious slice of stuffed pizza was good too.

Great Surprises and Exercise

My beau and I were, and still are, quite pleased with our Near North tour. Nicki (sp?) was a great guide. She gave us interesting information and engaged us in great conversation. Our group was small, just one other couple, so we felt appreciative of Nicki's attentive manner. The food was great. We had dined at Malnati's the night before, and came to realize that we'd not had the best deep dish in Chicago until Friday afternoon. All of the food was great, and the nice weather was a bonus. We will certainly be doing this again!

The 'Foodie North' tour is a great mix of food-tasting, Chicago history and architecture. The walking route is easy, scenic in places and very well-planned. Our guide Kate was terrific and we enjoyed every stop along the way. I'd highly recommend this 3-hour jaunt. If we had time, we probably would have also tried the other food tour through Bucktown and Wicker Park.

Great Fun!!!

We really enjoyed the tour. The guide, Kate, was enthusiastic and informative. We saw a beautiful area of Chicago, made our own reuben with the best pastrami we've ever eaten, sampled some great candy, and learned about oils and vinegar as well as spices. It was a pleasant way to get a better feel for the area.

Great tour of Old Town

We really enjoyed the tour and our guide, Jennifer, was terrific! This was our first visit to Chicago and we love to walk around and get a vibe for the area and eat at local places. We did a similar tour last year in New York, Greenwich Village - so we wanted to do a food tour in Chicago since they are well known for great restaurants. The stops on the Near North tour were good, and the food samples were good. It is a "stretch" to call it a food tour with a tea store, spice store and oil/vinegar store on the list of places to visit. The only real food samples were at the Jewish deli and the pizza place. The candy store was good and we got to sample English Toffee. The proprietor interacted with us, brought us behind the counter and demonstrated making candy. The employee at the tea store was very informative, too. Our tour guide, Jennifer, is passionate about her work, and really made a great effort to tell us interesting information about the area. She also helped us decide on other things to do with our remaining time in Chicago. I would recommend this tour to friends.
