The tour guide was friendly, well informed, and considerate of everyone's walking ability. Each stop was unique and interesting. The only stop that perhaps could be enhanced is the Catering chese deli. This was a little cramped and not as interesting as the other stops. The architectural portion of the tour was delightful. All and all my husband, daughter and myself throughly enjoyed the experience. We plan to take the Bucktown/Wicker Park tour in the near future. Thank you for a delightful day. |

I enjoyed the tour as a whole...the architecture of the neighborhoods was especially impressive...our guide was very knowledgeable and amicable....however I did book the Wicker Park tour originally based on the food selection.... the tea place was very interesting and the tea was delicious...the spice house though interesting I thought was very disappointing in what we were offered (nothing) they have all kinds of wonderful mixes and seasonings that could be made up and sampled...the oil shop also interesting is something I could have done on my own and was disappointed in the "tasting"...I also felt the same way about the Chocolate Catering shop...I have eaten Humus and also very good quality Gouda cheese...lets have something indigenous to their shop...they had some great looking stuff in their case that I would have loved to have tried...the pizza at the end was great...the reuben at the beginning also very good, as was the toffee ....I just thought the middle was a little disappointing. |

Jessie was a great guide. I wish we had taken the tour the very first day in Chicago. We got to see the 'locals' way of life and where they eat. It was away from all the touristy falderal. Very informative in regards to teas, oils, and spices, as well! |

Loved the tour and the discussion of architecture and neighborhoods. Gave us a little different view of Chicago and insight into their foods. We loved all stops except the choclate/catering business, and in particular the oil and spice stops. Our guide did a great job and didn't expect lots of food after reading other reviews, so was not disappointed, |

Loved it!! Would definetely recommend it for all ages. Our tour guide was excellent. Very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. I think her name was Jenn. The pace was great...had plenty of time to sample and didn't have to wait for people to shop. So much fun!! We had a pretty diverse group and a fine time was had by all. The shops were very diverse and the food was very tasty.... |

Having grown up in Chicago, I brought my wife to see the city. This tour was a great time, our guide Kate was terrific, and of course, the food....wonderful. I would highly recommend this tour if you like fun and historic Chicago. |

We had a large group of 17. Our tour guide Jen was fantastic. The walking was easy and we enjoyed the history and architecture tibits. loved the tea place and went back when tour was done to buy tea and the cool tea maker pot.
I found all of the tastings good and enjoyed them all. I would recommend this tour and we plan to go back to some in future visits. |
