A pleasant surprise Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour
Sun, Jun 24, 07 2:00 PM	pcegielski	Female	50-59	Local	Family With Children
This was a very good tour. Just a few minor suggestions. We felt the portions were a bit scarse. We had our 15 year old nephew with us so I don't think everything was satisfying. He would have liked more. I agree somewhat. At the deli only 1/2 of a potatoe pancake was served. At the spice shop you only got to taste a few spices. The pzza was fantastic at O'Fames!! The four in our party really enjoyed that. At least you got 2 pieces. Our guide, Nicki, was terrific. She really knew her stuff. Took us to places we've never been. Would have been nice if the group had been able to purchase some of the items at each establishment. Being south siders I can't say we'll get back in the northern areas anytime soon. And, what about the out of towners in the tour. I'm sure they would have like the opportunity to shop as well. Overall, the tour was a pleasant surprise; interesting and we had fun. Thanks. Are there any other food tours available? It would be nice to know for the future.
Great intro to Chicago! Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour

The food on the tour was good with some nice presentations at the restaurants. The tour guide was very well-informed and friendly. My favorite part of the tour was being able to go all over different neighborhoods of the downtown areas. We are new to Chicago andd wanted something different that the regular tourist spots. Because of this tour I'm sure we'll spend more time downtown!
GREAT FOR A TEAM BUILDING OUTING Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour

Tad, our guide, met us promptly at 11:45. He was a very personable young man and I knew right from the start that he was knowledgeable about the city. The tour began at 11:00am and lasted until approximately 2:30pm. All of the food stops and historical/architecture lessons were great....although our entire group was from the Chicago Suburbs, we all learned and saw so much about the city of Chicago that we never knew! It is a lot of walking so you need to wear comfortable shoes and dress appropriately for the weather.

My uncle was visiting me for a few days and I stumbled across this tour online. We booked it and had a wonderful time. Nikki was our tour guide and she was awesome. Definitely make sure you wear comfortable walking shoes. I have already told other locals about the tour and I am hoping the company will add a couple other different food tours in the near future!

I took my girlfriends on this tour last weekend and we all agreed that it was a fantastic experience. Our tour guide, Nicki, was very knowledgeable and had contagious enthusiasm! I am a Chicago local and have been on the tour before, but it never gets better and better each time. This is a can't miss event!

We live in the suburbs of Chicago. We thought we knew everything. Well, we didn't. Who knew there was a Jewish deli on Rush Street? Our guide was great. He kept everything moving along. I don't want to say much more about where we stopped because that is the fun of it. Wear your walking shoes and enjoy yourself.

Highly recommended Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour

We can't speak highly enough of this tour. It was extremely well organized, with a good balance of walking and tasting. The variety of food sampled was just right, too -- enough that we certainly didn't walk away hungry but not so much that we could barely move afterwards. Our guide, Shayne (not sure of the spelling), was great fun. Even as locals, we learned something new about the neighborhoods, and he kept everything lively and entertaining. Raves all around.
Excellent for food and information. Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour

It was a great neighborhood adventure. We all learned some history, some trivia and about all those little out of the way really nice shops that are fun and interesting in the various neighborhood's. Was so nice just too be able to look around and listen to our group leader with out having to check a map for directions. Some wonderful toffee at the Fudge Pot. Learn how to make a proper cup of tea at Gschwendner. The cheese at Cobey Foods was soooo good as well as the pizza at O"Fame'. The Spice House was nice becasue of being able to taste the hugh variety of spices on their shelves. Looking forward to taking my friends when they come to town to take the tour with me and to having a Ruben at Ashkenaz Deli where the aroma when we walked in was mouth watering. The walking pace was just right and the guide had a lot of knowledge about the area and was a lot of fun and made us all feel very comfortable and pampered. Would recommend it a must when in the city.

Wonderful Day! Near North Food Tasting & Cultural Walking Tour

I've lived in Chicago for 7 years and still found this tour informative and enjoyable. We toured many of the places I never go (can't afford to!) like the Gold Coast, Rush Street, and Lincoln Park and found some good deals there. There was a great mix of chicago history, food knowledge, and architecture that would make it ideal for a mixed audience. Tad was wonderful, and the shop owners were kind and welcoming. The coupons that come with the talk are also incredible deals! (I got an entire $20 free teamaker for buying $20 worth of tea at this Tea shop on the tour.) The walk is far! it must be over two miles, and so it was great exercise. If you expect to gorge yourself, you might be disappointed, it really is just a tasting... but it was perfect for my husband and I.
