A wonderful tour - both about chicago and food

| 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!

| 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

| 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

| 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. | ||||||

Thanks!

Worth doing

| 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. | ||||||

| Loved our tour guide! Learned about Chicago restaurants, some history, and architecture. Food was excellent: loved the oil/vinegar stop, spices, ethel's chocolates, and authentic pizza! All members of our group enjoyed the tour: we also liked that all food was vegetarian, and pretty healthy. | ||||||

| The tour was awesome. The tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. We saw neighborhoods in Chicago that I'm sure we wouldn't have seen had we not taken the tour. We went back to some of the stops on the tour to purchase things. The only minor drawback was the walking felt more like 5 miles. | ||||||

| We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Our guide was very knowledgable about the architecture, neighborhoods and the stores/cafes that we visited. If we were to suggest any changes it would be that maybe the last 2 stops were dropped because of the long walk to get to them although the pizza was great! | ||||||

| My husband and I started out trip to Chicago with this tour. It was the best thing we could have done! It gave us several ideas for places to go during our time in the city. The tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. The tastings opened our eyes to looking at foods in a different way. I definitely recommend taking this tour!! | ||||||

| My wife and I enjoyed this tour a lot. From the history of the city to the tour of some off the beaten path of some places, it was great. Our guide Jennifer was helpful, happy, and very patient with our group. I have already recommended it to friends and will continue to do so. Eric | ||||||
