Our guide Shane was very knowledgeable about not only the tastings but also a great deal about the city including architecture, landmarks and so on. I would recommend this walking tour to anyone & everyone who visits the city. The tastings were exquisite as well.

We had a great experience! Even though we have been to Chicago before, felt like we learned a lot about the neighborhoods and businesses along the way.

Good walking but not enough food
Sat, Jul 7, 07   11:00 AM nmendoci Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
I was expecting a "food tasting" tour. The food we tasted was small and not what I expected. My best half loved the tour on the other hand. She was happy with the chocates and cheese we tasted. I needed more substance. The tour guide was great, honestly I would had been bored if it wasn't for his lively commentary. The places we walked to were interesting and probably would had never seen had we not taken the tour.

Interesting Chicago lore and food history
Tue, Jul 3, 07   11:00 AM Pamelaszabo Unspecified Unspecified Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We enjoyed the neighborhood tour with descriptions of architecture styles. We never would have visited these areas on our own. The food was less in quantity than we expected, but quality was good. Best stop for us, the Spice Shop. We recommend this tour.

Great way to see Chicago

We enjoyed the tour & thought it was a great way to see parts of the city that on our own we probably would not have seen. Thad (our guide) was very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. Our young adult children (17-21) both enjoyed it as well. It is a lot of walking so be prepared!

A fun-filled day
Sun, Jul 1, 07   2:00 PM BarbaraBlack Female 50-59 Local Family Without Children
Even though we live in a suburb of Chicago and frequently visit Chicago, we thoroughly enjoyed the tour. We learned new tidbits about the city and enjoyed restaurants that were "new" to us. The food was delicious and we had plenty to eat. Nicky, our tour guide, was energetic and very friendly.

Inside Chicago

Our group of six, ages 17 to 58, enjoyed the tour very much.We had generous samples at all but one of the tastings. The one supposed tasting was some cinnamon on our hand. Although this spice place was really neat and the owner was very entertaining it didn't seem like that should have been considered one of the official tastings. She could have made a dip with some of the spices to go with crackers or something else that showed off her spices. Otherwise, the tour guide was interesting and we learned a lot about the Chicago that not everyone sees. We took the guides recommendation on one of the restaurants to come to in the evening and everthing was perfect there. It was Hugo Frogs.

not much food
Sat, Jun 30, 07   11:00 AM Tedwardsmith Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
It wasn't a bad tour. The description was however misleading. There wasn't much in the way of food. The cheese and chocolate were nice to be sure, but it by no means was sufficient for a lunch. From the description, the tour was described more as a Taste of Chicago. That was clearly not the case. Specifically, there were three stops with chocolate, one of potato pancakes, and one of cheese. Because the tour took place over lunch, I would recommend a different description. It was simply a walking tour with some nice snacks along the way. The guide was knowledgeable. Overall, I would give the tour a tepid recommendation. For food, the "Taste of Chicago" For tours, there are many, many of them. So, it's okay but not great. Recommendations: tone down the description, be honest about what is actually offered, and add more attractions.

Our tour guide, Shane, did a terrific job of supplying us both with information and food. We have already recommended this tour to other friends for when they visit Chicago.

Our tour with Shane (tour guide) was wonderful! He was very insightful and knowledgeable when it came to the neighborhoods and foods on our tour. It was an exceptional value as well. We would definitely take one of your other neighborhood tours the next time we visit Chicago.

what a great experience!
Thu, Jun 28, 07   11:00 AM esamuelsrule Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
The food tasting and walking tour was wonderful. Our guide was knowledgable and enthusiastic. Our family's favorite stop was either the tea shop or the pizza place.. We were pleasantly surprised to find out that pizza in Chicago doesn't have to be deep dish. Overall, it was a great day.

If only we had made time for the tour earlier in our trip! What a great way to see portions of the city away from the main "tourist areas". Our tour guide was enthusiastic and fun and the food was delicious. We highly recommend this tour.

Unique and great tour!
Wed, Jun 27, 07   11:00 AM mthavlick Female 30-39 Local Family Without Children
The Chicago food tour was great. It blended Chicago's culture and architecture with great food. They provided a nice variety and the samples were plentiful. The store employees/owners were very accommodating. Our guide, Nikki was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The only thing I would change is the fact that the ending location differs from the starting location. It was no problem for me, but I could see out of town people being a bit intimidated. But our guide was able to provide detailed directions (with different options) on how to go wherever you need. Definitely worth it! I wish they would offer more tours!
