Disappointed in Food Selections
Fri, Aug 10, 07   11:00 AM suzannekoles Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
I enjoyed the tour in as much as the guide was knowledgeable and very pleasant and the neighborhoods visited were interesting. The tour group itself was friendly and enjoyable. I was a little disappointed in the food selections. I had hoped to get more of a feel of the cuisine of Chicago instead of spices, oils and vinegars and candy. The potato cake at the beginning was greasy (not a good choice) and the pizza at the end was cold and very dry; I think they could have made a better choice.

Tour guide was fantastic. Enjoyed all the stops. Would have liked a few more minutes at a few of the stops to shop.

Have seldom bothered with tours, but this experience sold me on their value. It was fun, informative and tasty. There was even a sense of comradery among the participants.

Unique Chicago Experience
Thu, Jul 26, 07   11:00 AM rrosie Female 60-69 Local Group of Friends
The tour was informational as well as a lot of fun. The food tastings were good. It did require more walking than I expected, and with the warm weather that day, I and my friends were tired and sweaty at the end. Our guide was informed and entertaining.

Delicious and Educational!!
Mon, Jul 23, 07   1:30 PM mogie65 Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
I can't say enough good things about the food tour! I knew I'd be learning about and tasting new types of foods, and that was wonderful, but the cultural experience went above and beyond what I expected. Our guide was enthusiastic and knowledgeable, and a joy to listen to as as we walked and ate/drank our way through various neighborhoods. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who can walk the distance. Comfortable shoes are a must--I have the blisters to prove it :)

You won't regret it!

The tour was fantastic!! Tadd, our leader, was very personable and knowledgeable. It was such fun to see the various sights on the tour and hear Tadd's commentary. And to those who can't believe that enough food could be served to constitute a full meal, consider this: half a potato pancake, a 12 oz cup of delicious iced tea, an entire platter of chocolates, a huge basket of bread and cheese, two large pizzas divided among the group, and to top it all off: two scrumptious chocolates from Ethel's. Wow!!

Entertaining and informative
Wed, Jul 11, 07   11:00 AM IvaHolyfield Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
Looking for something different to do, I stumbled onto the Food Tour on the internet. It was the highlight of my trip since I had already seen the museums and other sights last year. Our guide, Shane, was very well informed and took us through many neighborhoods and gave us a great background of the different architectural styles and history. The weather was wonderful, and the group was fun to be with. The pace was an easy walking pace, and there was a restroom break and two places where we actually set down. My only complaint was that we were not allowed to buy at any of the stops, and they were rather difficult to find on our own. Also, the instructions on returning to the starting point were not correct since there was construction going on. I have a hearing deficiency, but was able to understand Shane's words easily. Make sure that you wear comfortable shoes for even though this comes advertised as a 2 mile trip, I think it was longer, and I walk 3 to 5 miles every day.

Best Activity in 15 Years
Wed, Jul 11, 07   11:00 AM kbcarmon Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Our group of 8 friends has been going to Chicago every summer for 15 years, and everyone agreed that this was the best activity in which we have participated!! Shane was so much fun and very informative. We loved the walk through Gold Coast, Old Town, and Lincoln Park along with the shop stops. We were pleasantly surprised with not only the wonderful food and drink but with the factual information about the history of each shop. After the tour was over, we returned to the The Spice House, Tea Gschwendner, and The Fudge Pot to buy gifts for ourselves and others!!

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.

Sooooo enjoyable!

We live in the suburbs of Chicago. We thought we knew everything. Well, we didn't. Who knew there was a Jewish deli on Rush Street? Our guide was great. He kept everything moving along. I don't want to say much more about where we stopped because that is the fun of it. Wear your walking shoes and enjoy yourself.

I visit Chicago every year and each time I try to find something different to do. This was a very enjoyable afternoon. The guide was informative and fun! I would highly recommend this tour not only to visitors but to locals looking for something unusual!

Wow! This is the BEST way to see Chicago.
Sat, Jun 9, 07   11:30 AM robertsfazio Male 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Wow! This is the BEST way to see Chicago and sample some very good things! Our tour guide, Nikki, was so enthusiastic, we could have just been happy talking with her. Her knowledge of history and landmarks made our first Chicago visit a really positive one. The foods were very good and we actually returned to three of the shops on the tour in the next two days to shop and eat. I liked the small group we were in (only 5) and the generous amount of snacking we were permitted. This is the perfect way to see the North Side. I highly recommend it. Out of the seven different things we did in the 5 days we were in Chicago, this tour was my wife's #2 rated after the play, WICKED, and my #3 after WICKED and a Segway tour. Wow! Why not Segway to the food shops! A great idea! BF from Chattanooga
