wonderful day with Jennifer Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour
Wed, Aug 19 11:00 AM	madyox	Female	50-59	Domestic Tourist(s)	Individual
I was sooo impressed with our guide, Jennifer,she was an absolute 10!! She was knowledgeable, articulate and extremely engaging. The food tasting was very enjoyable with the my favorite being the spices, balsamic vinegar and olive oil tasting. A suggestion would be to eliminate the deli with the hummus tasting as it was not as interesting as the others. No one seemed interested in us being there, as the other owners and employees were at the other locations. Getting a background of the local history and architecture was an added bonus by Jennifer. I would highly recommend this tour. Sharon Redding, California

My daughter and I attended this tour. She is 21 and I am 46. We both absolutely loved the tour. She had never been to Chicago before and although I have been 5 or 6 times I had never been in these areas. We really enjoyed the day - the tour guide was excellent and the whole tour was a lot of fun and interseting. With the amount of food given we were not even hungry for supper. Our favourite food was the deli sandwich and our best experience was the tea store. We both would highly recommend this tour!!
Wonderful tour with great food Bucktown/Wicker Park Food Tasting & Cultural Tour

We thoroughly enjoyed the tour. You chose excellent places to visit. We thought ALL of the food was tasty. We especially enjoyed visiting Hot Chocolate. We thought the walking tour to homes was too long. We appreciated the list of other restaurants in the area and plan to go back to Hot Chocolate for sure and others also. Our guide was enthusiastic and knowledgeable! It was very interesting to learn about Wicker Park and Bucktown. Thank you.
Fantastic way to experience Chicago Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour

I have already highly recommended this tour to a number of people who will soon be visiting Chicago. Our tour guide, Caroline, was excellent, informed, friendly, and enthusiastic. I loved visiting the local stores owned by 2nd, 3rd, and 4th generation families. It was a great combination of culinary experiences. The next time I am in Chicago, I look forward to trying the other walking tours you have to offer. One suggestion - would love to see a food and wine pairing tasting tour - that would be much fun!
very good selection of good quality shops and rest Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour

since we walked through an area, which is not in direct focus of tourists, I would suggest to put more emphasis on explaining the very interesting houses and the area
Fun, informative, better than doing touristy thing Bucktown/Wicker Park Food Tasting & Cultural Tour
Sat, Aug 8 11:30 AM	kpliego	Female	20-29	International Tourist(s)	Individual
The perfect combination of history, architecture and FOOD! I wish they had had more exotic foods available. I was not too crazy about eating at the grocery store. But the persian, i-cream and the not so famous thin pizza were a treat. We went back to the chocolate place for breakfast and that was better than I expected. A lot of the places were small and crowded so it was a little bit of a struggle. The tour guide was good he had to warm up first but then he was great. Chicago tends to get hot and sometimes rainy so that is something you really need to take into account when taking this tour as in involves a lot of walking; comfortable shoes and clothes a must. We took these tours at the beginning of our stay and then did the touristy thing, definitely not worth to do the latter, too crowded and not as fun as eating with a group of fun people who love to eat. I recommend this to anybody who likes to know a city on a non-typical way.

Our tour guide Nicki was fun & enthusiastic. This tour got us off the beaten path and into some neighbourhoods we wouldn't have seen otherwise. We covered a lot of ground at a relaxed pace, remember to wear comfy shoes. The next time I visit Chicago I'll definately try the Wicker Park tour.....and maybe do this one again!
Needs more focus Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour
Sat, Aug 1 12:30 PM	marypros	Female	50-59	Domestic Tourist(s)	Individual
Tour needs to focus on food or history, not both. I went on an excellent tour of Boston's North End with a chef who explained Italian food and cooking, and I would have liked having a similar experience in Chicago. Likewise, I would have welcomed a more focused tour of historic homes and neighborhoods, rather than mere admiration for the lifestyles of the rich and famous that was presented to us. However, I did like the pace of the tour and the varied neighborhoods that we explored.
food, architecture and culture! Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour

Wow! I cannot say enough about the Near North Food Tour! This was a great way for me to see the heart of Chicago on my short weekend trip! The worst part was that I was LATE and missed the first 2 stops. I took the train when i should've taken a cab from my hotel. Just when I had given up, my cell phone rings and it's Nicky of the tour and she says, "Shawna, are you still coming to the food tour?" WOW! The website says they will not wait for you, but it doesn't say that they won't take care of you! Nicky gave me a number to a cab company and kept up with me 'til I caught up with the tour! AMAZING! I sampled the most awesome foods, saw some of the greatest buildings and was in the company of an EXCELLENT tour guide and enthusiastic travelers! I had too much toffee (can that happen?), loved the cinnamon and over did it on the pizza! I've placed an online order for the vinegars and oils and I can't wait to get back! Sign up! You'll get MORE than your money's worth!

Very enjoyable. Great food tastings (almost too much food in the short space of time!). Leader Kent was very knowledgeable about the area. It was a good opportunity to see a part of Chicago I would otherwise have not explored in the short time I was there.
Great Food and History Tour Bucktown/Wicker Park Food Tasting & Cultural Tour
Sat, Jul 25 12:30 PM	dkug50	Female	50-59	Domestic Tourist(s)	Individual
I wasn't sure what to expect when I booked this tour, but it exceeded my expectations. Our guides did an excellent job of not only giving us historical information of the tour sites, they also gave us a lot of additional information of the Bucktown/Wicker Park area. One of the highlights for me was a walk down Pierce Street with it's rich architecture. The only disappointment for me was the Green Goddess Grocery--nothing special in the food there.
Wonderful way to taste and touch the city Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour

Great food and interesting selections. A nice mix of specialty and "main stream" stores. Who would have thought you could have so much fun learning about olive oil and vinegar! The spice shop is a MUST see and smell. I plan on ordering from them going forward! Thanks for such a wonderful afternoon!!!
