Fun, food and a historic informative tour. Chicago Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour |

| My 17 year old picked this tour and I went along. I had fun the whole tour. The guide gave us architectural facts along the tour that were as much fun as the shops we stopped in. Chicago history facts were also great. The surprise stop in front of the old Playboy Mansion was a highlight. The shops were selected with care to be unique. I won't tell you them so they can be a surprise. The ONLY thing wrong was the directions using the Elevated to get back to were we started the tour. It said Clark & Fullerton instead of Clark & Diversey. OOP's. I would recommend this tour and the fun people who run it to anyone that can walk a couple miles. | ||||||

nice tour, but hard core foodies will want more Chicago Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour |

| A perfectly pleasant tour, with some neat stops along the way. It was neat getting short talks from some of the purveyors and more in-depth glimpse into some of the stores that we wouldn't have been able to get just shopping. However, for serious cooks and foodies, it was a bit light. The tour is better suited for a family activity; something to do when friends are in town. It was a nice introduction to some of the different neighborhoods in the city, and we learned a few tidbits along the way too. | ||||||

Add this to the beginning of your visit to Chicago Chicago Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour |

| This tour even in a rain storm was fun, full of information, tasty and a good walking workout. We found little jems of stores and retaurants that we would have never found as tourists to Chicago. Unfortunately we added this tour on the end of our trip and could only run back to a few of the shops before they closed on Sunday evening. We do plan a trip back to Chicago and will be taking this tour with more of our friends at the beginning of our trip. It would have been nice to have had time to buy in these stores but we do have the internet and have already put in our orders. Our tour guide was fun and knowledgable. The homes and shops in Old Town and in Lincoln Park are beautiful and it is good to see that a city core can be revitalized even after the urban sprawl of the 70's, the city planners did a wonderful thing to reinvest in the city centre to bring it back to life. Thanks again for our wonderful tour, we will be returning and can't recommend this tour enough. Thanks again, Maureen and Linda | ||||||

| We really enjoyed the fact that the tour covered interesting details about the Chicago neighborhoods we visited, unexpected facts about the food items, and plenty of sampling. The tour guide was excellent, clearly showing that she was an enthusiastic native. She continually checked to make sure everyone was happy with the pace of the tour, and we never felt rushed. We would recommend this tour to others! | ||||||

FABULOUS way to "do it all" off beaten path! Chicago Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour |
|||||
| Sun, Jun 8 11:30 AM | 2karyn | Female | 30-39 | Domestic Tourist(s) | Individual | |
| We had a wonderful guide named Jennifer who was very passionate and enthusiastic about sharing her love of Chicago, although she modestly claims that all the FoodPlanet guides communicate the same information. We walked through three significant neighborhoods that reflect Chicago's wonderful history, architecture and diversity (NOTHING scary, I promise! Lots of wonderful upscale things to admire too) and tasted such interesting things while learning. I've traveled all over the world and this is - bar none - the best tour I've ever taken for the sheer interest, range of information and variety of activities - exercising, learning, tasting, sightseeing. Plus, they give you the "down low" on what locals like to do so you can make your own plans later and there also was a little local gossip to keep the interest level at a peak the entire time! Can you tell I had a wonderful time and will be dragging a group up to Chicago just for this tour as soon as I can pull it off? | ||||||

More than food Chicago Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour |

| Sun, Jun 8 11:00 AM | ChrisWolf71 | Female | 50-59 | Domestic Tourist(s) | Family Without Children | |
| The food was terrific, but I found the tour through the various neighborhoods to be just as great a part of the experience. I like to visit new areas but am reluctant to explore on my own without some guidance either written or personal. Emily actually went to college and lived in the area so was able to provide great insights. A passer-by was impressed also and we gave one of our guides away so they could sign up. You might want to give extra flyers to your guides so they can pass them out en route. This is well worth the price to see another part of Chicago on a personal level. | ||||||

Great City tour Chicago Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour |

| Sun, Jun 8 11:00 AM | htlien | Female | 20-29 | Domestic Tourist(s) | Family With Children | |
| We enjoyed seeing the city on foot and getting to know the neighborhoods and the local businesses better. I wish we could have had more time to spend buying products from the shops because it is very difficult to go back to the stores after the tour was over. Our guide was great! Very helpful and informative. Hope you add other tours of different neighborhoods so we can do it all over again. | ||||||

Worth doing Chicago Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour |
|||||
| Sat, Jun 7 12:00 PM | MauriStott | Female | 40-49 | Domestic Tourist(s) | Other | |
| The tour was very nice, and the tour guide was great -- very energetic and knowledgeable. We had a lot of fun, even though we were walking about 4 hours in 80 degree heat! I did learn a lot and felt like the tour showed us new places we wouldn't have found otherwise, and we know more for future visits. The tour is definitely worth doing, with a few side notes: I would recommend a light lunch or good breakfast beforehand, because you don't really eat enough to span the afternoon and you will be hungry if you have skipped lunch. Also, there is no shopping on the tour -- we were leaving the next morning, so we didn't have extra time, and it was very frustrating to reach the end and either have to pay cabs to get back to the shops or retrace an hour or so of walking to go back and buy the products. It cost a little over $20 in cab fares to get back to the shops we wanted to buy from and then back to our hotels, which kind of canceled out the benefit of the coupons they offer. The way around that would seem to be scheduling smaller groups with some built-in shopping time, even ten minutes extra, in each shop. What would be even better would be is an arrangement with Chicago free Trolley system to meet people at the end and bring them back, or maybe stop at shops... The tour is worth doing, just be prepared, depending on the length of your stay, to have to pay or walk more to go back and shop, and eat something or bring a little snack in your purse. Also recommend to do morning or when it's cooler... | ||||||

| Emily, our tour guide, was fantastic. Enjoyed all but one tasting, but even that one was OK...just not as great as the others. After the tour, went back to four of the tasting locations to shop. | ||||||
