Twelve of us with a variety of backgrounds and interests without exception said this was the highlight of our two day visit to Chicago. Most of us like to cook, all of us like to eat but we were impressed with the details of the family run businesses, the neighborhoods, architecture and history. Our guide Jen was so much fun and quickly related to our enthusiasim.

Fun Time on Food Tour
Sat, Jun 9, 07   11:00 AM tootstaylor Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We did the planetfood tour on Saturday June 9th. The tour takes you through many interesting neighborhoods in and around the Loop area. I especially enjoyed going to the tea shop, the spice shop and the Fudge Pot. Our guide provided good info and background on the areas and homes we passed by. I would recommend the tour to anyone who likes to walk, enjoys history and is interested in finding out about good places to eat with the locals.

I would recommmend this tour over the Dine - Around tour. After the tour I walked back to several of the stores and made purchases.

Best of 3 tours we had in Chicago

Me and friends joined the Food Planet Tasting, Segway and Wendella boat tours. Although these tours are totally different in nature, and they are all fine tours respectively, I think Food Planet Tasting tour is the best value of all. One star is deducted because the our tour group was quite big in size and we had a little difficulty squeezing into a few places that we visit.

A great tour of the city as well as the food

If you like to eat or cook, this is more than just worth the time. I realized quickly that this was more than just some great food and exercise. What a wonderful time we had as we were lead through the small neighborhoods North of the river. Every stop provided us with tastes I believe only available in Chicago. Our guide Emily was terrific not only in keeping our group together, but keeping us listening with information about the people and places we were passing by. Each stop was ready for the group and had samples of there wonderful specialties. And it was a lot more than just food. Teas, spices, oils, and vinegars (Yes, vinegar can taste wonderful. Who knew?) were sandwiched in between the deli, candy shops, and a pizza parlor. The only difficult part of the tour was trying to figure out which tasting you liked best. Although shopping was prohibited during the tour, we took advantage of our coupons. Retracing our steps at the tours end, we purchased from every place except the candy, which we got plenty of on the tour. It's pretty obvious that some of the places visited were the best in there trade worldwide. It was without a doubt the best pizza I've ever had. You'll have to take my word for it, as I've had pizza from all over the world, to include Italy. I'll be having it shipped to Delaware on occasion. The Spice Shop is a frequent supplier to the chef's on the food network. In fact, there was on of their Chef's there that evening signing her new book (Got mine!). I will be a customer to them and Old Towne Oil for years to come. Not only would I recommend this tour to anyone (even if you're from the area), but wouldn't hesitate to do it again on my next visit to the Second City. Thanks again, Emily.

Pleasant repast

A fun way to get to know the Gold Coast, Old Town, and Lincoln Park areas. Rebecca did a great job as an upbeat and enthusiastic guide with her perspective on the different areas and knowledge of the places we visited. Plus, the food samples were yummy!

Great way to see Chicago & taste it's delights
Tue, Aug 19, 08   11:30 AM TomMcIntyre Male 20-29 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We just returned home from this tour and really enjoyed it. Kent our tour guide really knows his stuff, both the area and the food/restaurants he takes us to. I agree with a few of the other customer reviews, some places aren't quite as interesting, but that's only my opinion. Catering/chocolate had great cheese, but nothing crash hot especially looking at the array they have available. Standout favorites are the spice shop & oil/vinegar shop, both of which we plan to go back to buy things. Highly recommended.

During our 4-day visit to Chicago, the tour of the Bucktown and Wicker Park neighborhoods turned out to be a real highlight. Food, history, and architecture were emphasized. The pace was pleasant and the guide was knowledgeable and personable. All 6 members of our group loved it.

Excellent introduction to the real Chicago
Fri, Jul 10  11:00 AM tobegirl80 Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
I booked this tour because we had done one in NYC and found it to be a nice way to learn about history, architecture, people and food. The Chicago tour was outstanding. Our guide, Jennifer, was very personable and knowledgeable. What I liked most about the tour was that it took me to parts of the city I wouldn't have found on my own and shops I might have walked past without realizing what I was missing. The highlight of the tour was Old Town Oil because mixing olive oil and balsamic vinegars was so much fun and a completely new experience. I have returned in person and online to make purchases. We enjoyed learning about deep dish vs. stuffed pizza and made a point to try both before leaving Chicago. We also returned to Oz Park which was a gem and a nice break for my 11 year old niece who took the tour with us. On my next trip to Chicago I will definitely book the Bucktown tour to further explore the neighborhoods and food of the city.
