Great tour and food but prepare to stay awhile

| My wife and I really enjoyed this tour. The locations of the eateries and quality of food were superb. However, the tour ran an hour over of the scheduled time and we had to run out at the end to make prior plans. We highly recommend but be prepared to stay longer then the agenda states. | ||||||

Great way to see the neighborhood

| The tasting tour was a great way to see Chicago's neighborhoods, particularly those outside of the downtown area. The guide takes you through various neighborhoods passing by Lincoln Park, Eclectic Row, Old Town, and Oz Park as well as various eating establishments in and near those areas. We most likely would not have visited these neighborhoods on our own. It was most definitely worthwhile and a great way to spend the afternoon. | ||||||

Great but not quite what we expected

| Great tour guide and tour. Enjoyed the history and culture of the city as much as the food. Only disappointment was that it was promoted as more local ethnic eateries but 3 of the stops were for chocolate and others were specialty shops that were not based on any old neighborhood history. Still all was good. Many amazing food and tastes that we will long remember. | ||||||

Great Way to Start Your Trip to Chicago!

| I thoroughly enjoyed this tour and highly recommend it to anyone at the beginning of your trip in Chicago. Our tour guide, Kent, was especially helpful and knowledgeable about details of this great city. I thought the amount of food provided was adequate. I ate breakfast around 9 am and was not hungry after the tour ended around 2:30 pm. Lots of walking, but with 2 rest stops I was fine. By the last stop I was ready for a rest, so the timing was just right. If I could change anything, I would suggest one less chocolate vendor. There were 3 and it would have been nice to have something else. It was a great way to get a feel for the city, it's history and of course, the food.! | ||||||

| This is the second time I attended the tour as a work outing. Everyone loved it - including one of my employees who was bit by a dog as we were walking. BTW, the dog's owner gave us bogus info so there was no recourse with the police. Thankfully, the victim wasn't injured badly and is on the mend. I would recommend getting a driver's license from the pet owner should it happen again (God forbid). Thanks for a great day out! | ||||||

| Our group of seven was mothers and their daughters whose ages ranged from 26-60. We had a blast and absolutely loved the tour! We learned a lot about the city and found ourselves returning numerous times to the food establishments we visited and were recommended. Our guide was awesome too! She was tons of fun and very knowlegeable. I'd definitely recommend this tour to my friends or other relatives who didn't get to come this time. | ||||||

misnamed tour
|

| Mon, Jul 28, 08 11:00 AM | patriciamiln | Female | Unspecified | Local | Group of Friends | |
| The tour was a pleasant walking experience with guide pointing out buildings of interest, however it is a mistake to call it a food tasting tour. Starting a tour at 11:00a.m. with a half a greasy potato pancake is a mistake. Ashkenaz Deli had other items that would have been more appropriate like some pastry. If someone is expecting wonderrful tastings from great resturants this is not the tour for them. Since I live in the Chicago area I expected a different experience and was disappointed but I guess if your from Kansas you loved it. | ||||||

I Had A Great Time

| I really had a great time. We did a lot of walking but it wasn't too much and the pace was good. I didn't feel rushed and had plenty of time to look at sights and look around the stores. The only minor thing that was a little bit of an issue is that I was planning on the tour only being from 11 - 2 and we ran 30 minutes past 2. I had another engagement at 3, and was worried that I wouldn't make it. That said, I wouldn't change anything about the tour it was definitely worth it. Next time I will plan on a bigger gap of time between activities. | ||||||

| Kent was a great tour guide. Humorous, informative and patient with a challenging group. (We were joined by a group of dependent adults.) He handled a couple of problems that cropped up with aplomb. If I may suggest, it would perhaps be better to have disabled groups tour privately to accommodate them better. As a caregiver, I always appreciate having extra time. My elderly mother, 10-year-old son and myself enjoyed ourselves immensely. Only wish we'd been staying closer to that neighborhood so we could have taken advantage of the coupons and our new found knowledge. Kimi | ||||||

Cross Section of Chicago Culinary and Culture

| This is much more than your average food tour. Not only do you get a taste of Chicago's culinary offerings, but a feel for the history and the pride of the people of the city of Chicago. Many members of our tour group stated that they really enjoyed everything about the tour and were particularly taken with the tea, spice and oil shops for their uniqueness. The food items provided for tasting were a well rounded assortment and plenty for my party. I believe all of us were especially impressed with our tour guide, Kate, who was not only knowledgeable and easy to talk to but friendly to one and all. She made the experience even more enjoyable. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to get the true "flavor" of Chicago. | ||||||

| This tour was a pleasant surprise, and I would not hesitate to repeat it with others. We visited some truly unique shops; some I might otherwise never have known were there. The pace was perfect, the tastings were delicious, and the descriptions of local architecture and history added a nice touch that completed the experience. Local shop owners were most welcoming, and more than one talked about their merchandise in enough detail that I was able to gain quite a bit of education. | ||||||
