The highlight of my trip Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour

Jen was our cheerful tour guide who enthusiastically steered us through our Near North Side culinary journey. Sample sizes were ample and diverse, aisle shopping was fun, scenery was pleasant, and vegetarians eagerly accommodated. I don't get the criticism from a handful who complain that they didn't get to eat $42 worth of food. The point is to sample various cuisines and be guided around by a local while enjoying the walk, learning about history and architecture. I was plenty full by the time I finished the tour (some of the samples given include a Reuben sandwich (or potato pancake for the non-meat eater), slize of cheese stuffed pizza, cheese and hummus/crackers, and plenty of toffee brittle. YUM!
awesome- even in the rain! Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour

I had some reservations about going on this tour in the wind and light rain, but I need not have been worried. The tour was awesome. It was a fantastic way to see Chicago, learn about some history and architecture, and visit some wonderful local shops. The food was excellent and I retraced my steps to purchase items at the conclusion of the tour. It made me want to go and cook! Our tour guide was fantastic- a fountain of knowledge and just very welcoming. She went the additional mile to make sure everyone was happy- even taking me aside and showing me a map of the town so that this confused kiwi from San Diego could understand the layout of Chicago. Fantastic!

Fantastic tour.. When Henry Ford was in business with Mr. Rockefeller he called MR. R and had a problem with the car line. MR. R flipped a few switches and fixed the problem. MR. R then sent a bill to MR. Ford a bill for $10,000.00. Mr. Ford called and questioned the amount. Mr. R said, OK I will resend the bill. He resent that bill... $1000 for his time to flip a couple of switches $9000 for knowing what switches to flip. Your tour was Fantastic because you know where to go and information about the local shops. ( What switches to flip) I have sent in orders to almost all the food shops and will recommend this tour to all my friends... Ketchup was a joke... no one laughed Dennis Boldt Owner/'Operator Delex Corp dba The Pasta House Co High Ridge MO

This tour is a great way to see Chicago off the beaten path. The stops in Old Town, especially The Fudge Pot, where the toffee is the best ever, now are must return locations. But the best part was Jen, our guide, who made the walk delightful and fun with her infectuous laugh and knowledge of all things Chicago.
Really Great Time. Highly Recommended! Bucktown/Wicker Park Food Tasting & Cultural Tour

I'm not much of a tour kinda guy, but I really enjoyed this one. Getting to know the history of the area and enjoying really unique foods plus a great tour guide made this a really enjoyable event for me. Perfectly structured, timed and organized, plenty of food and lots of interesting people and places.
Fabulous, fun and informational! Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour

I was in Chicago with my husband - who was attending a legal conference, therefore, while he was in meetings, I wanted to do something besides just shopping. I do love to cook, so that is why I chose this tour, because of the blend of places that we visited. The mix of shops was perfect and I did go back to 3 of the places and made purchases. Our tour guide was Jen and she was great - very engaging and full of facts and knowledge about Chicago history. It did rain almost the whole tour, but we were having such a great time that I don't think anyone minded - just be sure to take an umbrella and raincoat if rain is in the forecast! I would definitely take the other tour the next time I come to Chicago - but I can't imagine that it could top this one.

Our guide was excellent and helpful with suggestions. Anyone who enjoys food and tourism should spend part of their day. I enjoyed seeing another area of Chicago. I learned alot. I am highly recommending my daughter and I go to the food tour in Washington.

A really fantastic tour and great way to get to know a bit more about the city. From our very friendly and knowledgeable guide, great stores etc where we sampled everything from tea, pizza, spices...as well as getting some idea of the history and architecture of the city. Not one part of the tour could be faulted - would definitely do it again if I ever come back to Chicago.
Fun on a Friday Afternoon Bucktown/Wicker Park Food Tasting & Cultural Tour

This was a great way to spend a Friday afternoon. Our tour guide was what made the trip, and made me anxious to return to these neighborhoods!

Kent our guide certainly knew his history and detail of the area. It was good to see that he was very enthusiastic about the food and the history of both Bucktown and Wicker Park. We were staying in downtown Chicago on vacation and had it not been for the tour we certainly would not have visited the area or had the opportunity to sample food and drink in the 6 selected places. We thought the choice of places visited was excellent and the variety was appreciated. Given the amount we had to eat and drink on the tour you will not be surprised to hear that we had a 'light' evening meal We will certainly recommend the tour to anyone we know who is contemplating a visit to Chicago

What a great collection of stops to sample some yummy food. Particularly enjoyed the restaurant (and the food tasting) Hot Chocolate ... the best I've ever tasted. Above all, our guide, Ben, was bubbling over with enthusiasm the entire way ... hard not to be enthusiastic with him around! Definitely recommend this tour. TB

I loved being able to see the different stores available in the area. Not being from Chicago we got pretty lost trying to go back to patron the stores.
