Great tour!
Fri, Jun 6  11:30 AM jtorbenson Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Jennifer was a wonderful, helpful hostess with a lot of enthusiasm. She really seemed interested in our stay in Chicago and made an effort to talk to everyone. She gave us a fantastic breakfast spot (Wishbone). We really loved the tour and she was a large part of that. We had huge weather issues and she handled them with aplomb. We are "foodies" from Seattle and wondered if we would learn anything from this tour. The answer is YES. The stores/tastings were great and we found a few specialty stores that we will be checking out online. Tthe three different neighborhoods were lovely and diverse and we also learned things about Chicago. We wanted to go back to certain areas due to us being able to walk through and feel the vibes of the neighborhoods. We loved looking at all of the amazing homes and different styles of architecture. We couldn't cover as many areas in Seattle due to the steep hills. Chicago is flat and we could have walked forever....just bring an umbrella and be prepared for heat, wind and rain in June, or any month. We feel that we really got a lot for the money with this amazingly fun food tour. Great job!!! Jana and Martin

Fabulous tour! Well worth the money!
Fri, Jun 6  11:30 AM caulerich Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Our tour guide Jennifer was fabulous. She was upbeat, friendly and enthusiastic. Jennifer was knowledgeable about the tour sites and the neighborhoods we visited. The food samples were delicious. It felt like a local friend was showing us around the town for a few hours. The tour stops were varied, but all wonderful in their own way. I felt like I saw a bit of Chicago I would not have seen otherwise. This tour was so much fun. I would love if they offered another food tour emphasizing other Chicago neighborhoods. All in all, a very fun afternoon. I would highly recommend for tourists and locals alike.

The pace was leisurely, which was nice. Despite the heat and humidity (and a brief downpour), our tour guidess (kind of like a godess, only in the guide world) remained cheerful, conscientious of our needs, and really tried to make a connection with each person on the tour. It was fun. It was factual. I learned a lot!

Absolutely Fantastic

This was a highlight of our group's bus trip to Chicago. Our guide Emily was perfect. We had a wonderful time walking, talking, laughing, tasteing, and learning about the north neighborhoods of Chicago. After the tour we back tracked our route so we could make purchases at the different stops. All the shops were very friendly and helpful. We have already recommened this tour to other friends going to Chicago this summer. The pizza was too good to discribe!

Expanding to San Francisco?
Wed, Jun 4  11:00 AM mieshey Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
I took your tour on Wednesday and I haven't been able to stop thinking about how amazing it would work in San Francisco, my hometown. If you ever consider expanding into San Francisco and need insider's information of the area, please do not hesitate to contact me. With all the different cultural neighborhoods and the history in San Francisco, a walking food tour would be highly sucessful. In time - I could even picture several tours highlighting the different areas: Chinatown, North Beach, the Embarcadero, the Mission. The possibilities in San Francisco are endless!! Just some food for thought (no pun intended!) Thanks again for a wonderful experience!

New and different tour for a day trip
Tue, Jun 3  11:00 AM wendygray Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
I fly to Chicago regularly (every 3-6 months) and have done all the museums over and over. So this last trip I came across this tour on-line and wound up having a great time!! I was lucky to be in a small tour group and found the intimacy a great advantage. I would highly recommend this to do with friends looking to try something cool and trendy!!

A must for your Chicago visit!

We went on the tour based solely on the reviews. And what a great decision we made! The places we stopped at were incredibly diverse and noteworthy. And our tour guide, Nikki, was just great. She talked about many of the places that we passed and had a wonderful knowledge of the history and detail of each place. The handout was received very informative with many recommendations of places that were near our route. We even returned to several of the stops on the tour and purchased several of their products. We hope that new tours of other parts of Chicago eventually come together. We will definitely be one of the first. I would very highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for something to do in Chicago. It is a first rate experience.

Terrific and unusual tour.
Sun, Jun 1  11:30 AM susanlong Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
This was a great tour for me and well worth the cost. I am a food lover and knew I would have time to spare while my husband was at a conference. Directions to and from the tour were perfect. I didn't have any unanswered questions prior to or after the tour. I was glad I wore good walking shoes as directed! Our tour guide was very friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. I learned many interesting things about the various Chicago neighborhoods and greatly enjoyed the tastings. It wasn't too much or too little. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to go off the beaten path and experience a taste of life in Chicage.

Great experience not to be missed
Sun, Jun 1  11:00 AM chez16 Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
I enjoyed hearing the history of the different neighborhoods that we passed through and seeing the different types of architecture. I was definitely full after completing the tour. There was plenty to eat and seconds and even thirds were encouraged. I liked the variety of the places we visited. I found the oil & vinegar stop the most interesting as I had never seen so many different kinds of oils and flavored vinegars. I made sure to stop back there after the tour to make a purchase. I also really enjoyed the PB&J chocolates at the last stop. I picked up some of those to take home as well. Our guide was very friendly and seemed especially knowledgable. I was surprised to discover that she had only been doing the tour for about a month. I would highly recommend this tour to family or friends when visiting Chicago and I will search out similiar tours when visiting other destinations in the future.

Fun for Foodies, and personal touch
Sun, Jun 1  11:00 AM sheliehg Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
Our tour was very relaxing, lots of time to chat as we walked, everyone enjoyed it. I went back to the Spice and Tea and Oil , and Ethels stores and purchased several hundred dollars in merchandise. The architectual points were really interesting and I felt I received an orientation to the neighborhoods, of gold coast, and old town that I would never have achieved walking alone even if I found the shops. The walking part was great too.

Don't miss this tour...

We had a most enjoyable experience walking around so many lovely neighborhoods and enjoying the delicious foods. Our guide Jennifer was delightful and pointed out many architecural sights and explained the various neighborhoods and their specialized foods. We never could have done this tour by ourselves. Definitely worth the the price.

Great Fun
Sat, May 31  11:30 AM evahalpern Female 60-69 Combination Family Without Children
This tour was wonderful. We had a small group -- only seven on the tour -- and our guide was great. She was informative and fun. Most of the group were in their 20's with a 50/50 mix of Chicagoans and visitors. The highlights for everyone were the specialty olive oil and balsamic vinegar shop and the spice shop. The chocolates and pizza were good too.
