| After enjoying the other Chicago tour, I decided to try the new Bucktown/Wicker Park with a friend. This was an equally great experience that I would recommend to anyone. I live in the suburbs and this was an opportunity for me to see what the area has to offer. Next summer my husband and I will definitely take the Blue Line in to the Damen stop to try some of the wonderful restaurants and walk around the neighborhoods. The tour was fun, the food was great, and I plan on doing it again with family from out of state. BTW-come hungry to this one. You eat more than the other tour. | ||||||

| Local and tourist alike will enjoy this opportunity to get to know a neighborhood. We met at a hot dog joint, walked together, ate together, talked together and had a very special afternoon. Our guide lived in the neighborhood and made us feel very welcome. Got to know the area like never before. Highly recommend the experience. | ||||||

| Nicki was a wonderful guide on a tour through parts of the city we had never thoroughly visited. My husband and I both cook so the trips to the spice and oil shops were great finds in our book and will probably become regular stopping points for us. We are going to try to find time to go on the other tour as well. | ||||||

EMILY WAS AN OUTSTANDING TOUR GUIDE

| This is the second Near North tour that I have taken in the past 2 mos. It just so happens that Emily was my tour guide both times. The tour is outstanding in every way. Emily is a delightful tour guide - she is very knowledgeable, funny and handles the group well. I can't say enough about how wonderful Emily is. Also, all of the store owners on the tour treat us very well. They provide plenty of food/tastings so it feels like a great value for the tour price. I did alot more shopping this time and the shops are definitely places that I will return to, even if I am not on the tour. I am originally from Baltimore, MD and I have guests all summer long. I just discovered it in August, but I will take every guest on this tour and when they come a second time, I will take them to the Bucktown/Wicker Park tour. I didn't even know about that tour, but Emily mentioned it and I am hoping to experience it soon. If you have any information that you can send - perhaps even the tour itinerary (like the map, tour stops, etc.) I would love to take a look at it and use it to persuade some friends who are local to join me. Also, if you have information on any of the other tours that you offer in Chicago, I would love to have it as well. My name is Vickie L. Wash. | ||||||

Exceeds Epectations

| Our tour yesterday exceeded our expectations. It was very well organized and the 8 stops we made were varied and the information provided by our guide, Emily, and the merchants was interesting. No shortcuts were taken and the tour which was scheduled to last 3-3 1/2 hours lasted closer to 4 hours because the people in our group were comfortable asking Emily questions that she thoughtfully answered. Emily was also excellent as she was personable, knowledgable, engaging, and extremely entusiastic. Even though my wife and I have lived in Chicago for over 50 years, we learned many things on this tour and went to several intersting places that we had never been before. We enjoyed this tour so much that we are planning on going on the Wicker Park tour in the near future. | ||||||

| My husband and I were celebrating our wedding anniversary and we are quite outgoing, social people. We love dining out, spending time with friends and enjoy various social outings, but a "Food Tour" sounded a bit odd originally. I love to cook so I knew I would enjoy various bits of the tour, but my husband, upon arrival at the deli was certain we were going to bail out early and leave. However, after walking and stopping quite a few times and listening to Nikki explain different parts of the city, the history behind some homes and their architecture, and additional stories about the city and the places we were nearby, we were drawn in completely! This ended up being extremely pleasant, educational, fun, yummy and a lot of fun. The places we went to were interesting and delicious and the people running the places were pleasant as well. To hear the stories about why these people opened up these little shops and the stories that went along with it was really cool. I would recommend this to everyone. It's not just for the artsy individual, or the eclectic, or the boring, or the drab-it's truly neat for anyone of all sorts of personalities. Trust me...if my husband had fun (the same guy who enjoys skydiving, football, motorcycles, socializing, driving race cars, and various constructive projects), anyone will have fun!!! | ||||||

| Next to the Architectural Boat Tour, this was the most enjoyable Chicago tour I've been on. Our guide was informative, the stores were unique, the food was excellent and you get lots of exercise to boot! Although I am the consummate chocaholic (and there were TWO chocolate stores that satisfied my sweet tooth), my favorite stop was the Spice Shop. Of the three people in my party, one person has numerous food allergies - Chicago Food Planet went out of their way at every stop to make sure there was something she could eat/drink which was very impressive and most appreciated. Besides the food aspect, we all enjoyed the history and local tidbits that our guide passed along. Highly recommend this tour - great way to see a different part of the city, enjoy good food, meet new people and learn some interesting Chicago history! Thanks Chicago Food Planet for a fabulous day - it was well worth taking a day off work!!! | ||||||

| I found the tour interesting, the guide was fairly knowledgeable and very informative. The food was good, but not what I had expected at all. Perhaps a better description is in order on the web site. | ||||||

| Emily was a great guide!!!! Very informative and had alot of great stories to tell too!! The tour was fun!!! We learned alot of fun facts and we visited some great neighborhoods!! So much so that I will add this to my activities when I have more out of town company! Much better than just wandering around Chicago on our own!! I've lived here since 1991 and never saw some of the sites we visited!!! Loved it !!! | ||||||

| We had a group of 13 and across the board everyone of us truly enjoyed this. We are all Chicogo based people and were looking for a team building activity and just found this on the web. We had a great time across the board, learned a lot more about Chicago both the town and the food stops that were officially part of the tour. We made lots of comments about how it was great to be local and learn more about our home town. | ||||||

| I grew up in Chicago and was unaware of some of the history and architecture. I really enjoyed going to eateries and shops that I did not know existed. Whether you are a visitor or a local, you will enjoy the experience. The guide, Jennifer was amazing and the rain did not affect the tour. | ||||||
