| This tour was suppose to be 3 hours, but it was closer to 4. The originating stop had a food tasting, but the next 3 stops in a row were tea, spices, and oil/vinegar. While they were super interesting and a great part of the tour, the tour description says that it is good for lunch. We scheduled our tour for noon based on that. We had an 11 year old who was starving for the first two hours of the tour until we finally stopped at a candy shop, a catering store, and then finally to pizza and dessert. I would space out the food stops more evenly so that you're not starving for the first half of the walk and then full for the second. Our tour guide was great and very informative. | ||||||

| Thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Visited shops that we never knew existed. Highlights were: the Tea Gshwender, The Spice House, Old Town Oil and The Fudge Pot. | ||||||

| We had a great time, and learned things about Chicago, that we didn't know before. The combination of the food and the architecture was very informative. | ||||||

| Our family moved to Chicagoland about 2 months ago and thought this would be a great tool for getting to know the area. We also had a friend up from Texas with us on the tour. This was perfect! We have already returned to several of the listed shops for gifts and items for ourselfs. Our daughter loved the tour also and at 9 they are hard to please. It is a long walk for the little ones but if they are foodies they will love it. As recommended do this first in your visit to Chicago because lots of ideas and places to visit are unlocked on the tour. | ||||||

| I thought the tour was a great balance of great food (based on the web description, I was afraid I might not be full but, pleasantly, that was not the case), a little exercise (via walking through the neighborhoods), and interesting information (on both the restaurants we sampled at, the one's we just passed along the way, and the neighborhoods we were in). | ||||||

| Jennifer was a delight and added much skill and knowledge to our walk. We loved the stops, the shops, and the local insight. It was obvious that Jennifer loves Chicago. I would recommend this tour to anyone. I understand the time constraints, but it would have been fun to buy things. | ||||||

| did not like being forced on a 4 hr tour through pouring rain. enjoyed the locales and history of the neighborhoods, but caught a pretty bad cold, and would've greatly enjoyed ability to reschedule due to inclement weather. | ||||||

| Our Food Planet Tour was great, from start to even beyond finish! Emily, our guide, not only knew about the places and foods we'd be sampling, but had background about the places of business, the owners/managers and their history, and the buildings and events in the Near North area. She recognized the needs of the group and was also respectful of the places of business we were visiting. We learned a lot about this area of Chicago, even though we live so near many of these places! The added incentive of a few coupons will ensure that we will return and we were glad that the trip itself did not allow for shopping-that kept the pace and length of the tour very managable. We really recommend Chicago Food Planet tour to locals and visitors and are very excited to take the Bucktown/Wicker Park tour. We're hoping that you can expand your offerings to include the other unique neighborhoods of Chicago! | ||||||

| I live locally and went on this tour with my Mother and two aunts. It was a highlight for all of us and one of the most unique and fun tours I've taken while living in Chicago. Our tour guide was upbeat, thoughtful and kept us engaged the entire time. Although we didn't walk fast, be prepared for a lot of walking and standing. You only sit down two times during the 3 hour tour; 10 min halfway and 20 minutes toward end of the tour. The tour says wheelchair friendly, however, in most of the establishments, you must be able to walk up and down stairs while leaving wheelchairs and strollers aside. | ||||||

| We had a wonderful time on our food tour!!! Kent was an informative and friendly guide, full of interesting information. The eight stops were well chosen, giving us a great sampling of foods available in the city. It was fun to walk in different neighborhoods, view various types of architecture, and learn more of Chicago's history. We highly recommend this tour for locals as well as tourists!!! | ||||||

Finding new places as a local

| I live in the suburbs of Chicago and went on this tour with a friend. It was a good tour to introduce you to new places in Chicago. I have more ideas for gifts and places to take friends. If you aren't from Chicago, you will learn some interesting facts from the tour guide and they do give catalogs to order things over the internet at a later time, since you can't purchase items on the tour. | ||||||

| The guide was great. She was well informed and responsive to questions. I've lived in the city for about a year and learned some new things about my neighborhood. I like history so personally I like more cultural and historical details, but the tour of the Gold Coast-Old Town neighborhoods was a nice introduction for my friend who's from out of town. | ||||||

| Enjoyed the pacing and the variety. Would cut out the last chocolate in favor of adding an Asian offering. We also enjoyed the history of the local neighborhoods and would enjoy knowing more if available. Lastly, transpertation should at least be offered to get back to starting point, not saying it has to be free. Thanks, Steve and Carol | ||||||
