This is the second time I attended the tour as a work outing. Everyone loved it - including one of my employees who was bit by a dog as we were walking. BTW, the dog's owner gave us bogus info so there was no recourse with the police. Thankfully, the victim wasn't injured badly and is on the mend. I would recommend getting a driver's license from the pet owner should it happen again (God forbid). Thanks for a great day out!

A wonderful walking tour of locally owned estalishments. The historical and architectural notes were also appreciated. Well worth the price of admission.

LOVED THE FOOD TOUR!!!
Wed, Aug 13, 08   11:30 AM angelaaco Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
We were a little hesitant at paying the $40 at first, but our daughter insisted, and we are so glad we took the tour. Our guide, Emily, was very nice and full of interesting information, and we thoroughly enjoyed all the places we visited (my personal favourites were the olive oil & spice shops, as well as the pizza restaurant, but we really enjoyed them all!), and the walk through the different neighbourhoods. We recommend this tour to everyone visiting Chicago, and we look forward to going back and hope that Food Planet will, by then, have some different tours that we can take. Good job!

There were 5 in our group on Aug. l3th, 2008. We really enjoyed our tour and our guide was very good and we learned alot about the area and places that we visited. We have told several friends and they all plan to take this same tour in the future. Thanks for a great time.

Had a great time and a wonderful guide.

I had a wonderful time on the tour. The easy way to put this is, there was a middle aged woman of about 50 or so who said at the end of the tour, "I have lived in Chicago all my life and I have never been to any of these wonderful places." If you can show local people things they had never seen, I know I was getting a treat. As a side note i felt the tour guide Kent was a very wonderful and well informed gentlmen. I am a man who love food, but I really think he made the tour for me.

Whether you care about the differences between teas or some architectural sights, this tour has plenty of both. Even those just being dragged along for the tour shall find this a very worthwhile 3 hours.

Beautiful walk thru top neighborhoods

Our guide,Nicky, met us at Azkanaz Deli and began our tour on a beautiful day in Chicago. She was full of info about the Gold Coast, Lincoln Park and Old Town and the stops in shops along the way was fun and took the place of lunch with candy, gourmet oils and vinegars, spices, deep dish"heart healthy pizza, gourmet cheeses, and deli tastes. The walk was just long enough and even though we are locals, we all enjoyed it very much and would recommend it to anyone who likes to get a closer look into the neighborhoods.

Enjoyable Chicago tour!

My teen daughter and I enjoyed everything about the tour--walking, talking and tasting. Nikki, our tour guide, was very charming and informative. Great variety of stops and tastings. Wear comfortable shoes because this is a walking tour. Fascinating stores--especially the spice and oil shops. Pizza was awesome. We went back to the fudge shop to buy toffee. Will highly recommend to my friends.

Seeing something different in Chicago!

If you are looking for something different to do in Chicago, then check out the Walking Tour. Its entertaining and allows you to see the city fromthe normal tourist activities. I would highly recommend to anyone, however, eat a small breakfast before going.

Wonderful tour, with great food & information on the locals. The Tea House, Pizza and Spice Room were my favorite....Would definitely do the new tour when they get it up and running. See you next year when we visit!

I loved the tour. I am a huge fan of Chicago and loved the informative tour of different shops to visit, the history of the area and the places I would never have visited if not on this tour. I highly recommend this tour to everyone. A pub tour was suggested by our group, a restaurant tour and a tour of the historic houses would also be great. Thanks for a great time.

Great food, great guide, great information
Sun, Aug 10, 08   11:30 AM kari_mccarth Female 30-39 Local Couple on a Date
Jennifer, our guide, was brimming of interesting info about every restaurant and every neighborhood's history, recent past, and point of interest. We didn't just wander around the spice house (which was really interesting even for someone with no interest in spices), we got a demo of cinnamon being made. We didn't just drink tea, we learned a ton about it from a very personable tea sommelier The walk was great and the food was great. I was a little worried at the start bc the first stop's food wasn't so hot (a potato pancake that was greasy and not terribly unique or interesting), but it turns out that restaurant is owned by the tour company, so i guess i can understand him wanting to include his own restaurant. he just need to get better food or not put his restaurant as the very first stop. also, the cheese shop was pretty disappointing. but overall, highly recommended for locals, tourists, or just someone interested in a fun afternoon. be careful about group size...ours was small, which was nice. But we heard they can get as large as 20 people, which I think would be very uncomfortable and awkward to be a part of in most of these tiny local restaurants.
