Wonderful Tour ***** Will Do It Again

| I took a group of 4 young women from my church group on the Near North Side Walking Tour. Our tour was on Oct. 11, 2009. Although we all live in the South Suburbs of Chicago...none of us have been to these spots. Everyone really enjoyed the tour. There was just enough time between walking and 'seeing'. The places we visited were great. There was only one thing that the ladies wanted, and that was to have time to shop! I'm not sure that this tour would make that possible however, maybe you could have a tour with less places and more shopping. At the Spice Shop they said that they would have rather looked at the spices more and not had the talk about cinnamon. But there were also some that felt that they learned a lot from the talk...so it is a draw. Our tour guide Kent was really good. He was considerate of the entire group, some were older than others! He also had quite a bit of knowledge of the stores and landmarks that we came in contact with. He spoke clearly and loud enough that we could all hear him. I will be taking our group on this tour again in the Spring. I would suggest doing this type of thing in other neighborhoods as well! Great Job. Sandy M | ||||||

| We really enjoyed our guide, Kent, and the food samples were wonderful. The only stop that I might suggest deleting is catering <> chocolate. It was okay, just not up to par with other stops and seemed out of the place by comparison. | ||||||

| This was a fun activity for my husband and me and our 20-yr-old son in college in Chicago. We went in October, and the weather was brisk but lovely. I wanted a tour for our college student son that was not too academic (he gets enough lectures!). He really liked this, even more than my husband and I did; he now knows a new part of the city, and can re-visit it with friends. The food shops range from very luxurious to ones that you can use routinely. | ||||||

| Seeing the neighborhoods of Chicago (which you might miss on your own) was great! Nice tour if you have never been to Chicago before. Go early in the morning if you can so you can return to the neighborhoods to explore more on your own. Thank you from Art and Karen in Arizona. | ||||||

Repeating the Food Tour and Still Lovin' It

| I am a transplant from Balto, MD. Every time I have company from my hometown, I bring them on this tour. One of my guests had taken the food tour last year on his yearly visit to Chicago, but wanted to take it again with another friend of ours who was also visiting. I pointed out that the food tour company had another tour we could try (Bucktown/Wicker Park), but he said that he wanted to repeat this one. He loved Old Town Oil and the Spice Shop and wanted to stock up again on oils, vinegars, and spices on the tour! So, that, of course, means that I have been on this exact same tour several times including the previous month in September when I had a visitor from Baltimore. I LOVE this tour. Jenn was my guide both times and she was excellent - so much energy, passion, and knowledge about the city and the food. The merchants that we visit are welcoming and have outstanding, quality products. I am looking forward to taking the Bucktown/Wicker Park tour in November. I have no doubt that it will be awesome. | ||||||

| The lady giving the tour truely loves the area and you can tell by the way she knows so much about the area. The food was great at every location I will go back to these locations again. It is alot of walking but you are having such a great time you dont feel like it is a lot because of the breaks you take | ||||||

| This was a great tour. This was my first trip to Chicago and I was here for the marathon and this was a great way to be introduced to the city. Not only was the food great, but the insights into Chicago were wonderful too. I can not wait to go back and do the other tour. | ||||||

| My friends and I from Florida love to eat. We were excited to take a food tour that included typical Chicago style foods. What we received was so much more. We got a very personal introduction to the Wicker Park and Bucktown areas. We learned interesting historical and cultural information that made us appreciate all that we viewed. The shops and restaurants were all so unique. We would have never been so lucky able to pick out all of the destinations that were included. Our Guide, Cari, was fabulous. She was very enegetic and passionate about her town. We thoroughly enjoyed this tour and would highly recommend it anyone, tourist or local!! Stephanie from Tampa | ||||||

| I had so much fun on our tour. Our guide was great! I live in the area and go to the neighborhood all the time, yet I still learned so much. The selection was perfect, and the walk was nice. Great job. | ||||||

| I'm not much of a tour kinda guy, but I really enjoyed this one. Getting to know the history of the area and enjoying really unique foods plus a great tour guide made this a really enjoyable event for me. Perfectly structured, timed and organized, plenty of food and lots of interesting people and places. | ||||||

| We recently went on a 3 hour walking food tasting tour around 3 neighborhoods in downtown Chicago and I just have to say that it was the highlight of my short stay. Our tour guide Jessie, was sensational! What a great personality along with wittiness and knowledge of the city! She spoke very clearly and had such charm. I learned so much about Chicago, which I might add, was unexpected seeing that we were on a food tasting tour. The food was fabulous and I tried things I would have never tried. From the reuben's to the chocolate to the famous Chicago pizza, it was simply delicious! | ||||||

| Looked for something different to do for my mom's bday. After searching online, ran across this tour and we loved it! Food was great and a nice way to explore the neighborhood. Only recommendation would be to bring along your choice of beverage. With all the tasting, no liquids are really provided throughout. Had a good time and plan on looking up another food tour next time we head out of town! | ||||||

| A memorable experience with a wonderful variety of food tastings. We also very much enjoyed the walk through the residential areas.The only downside to this experience was our tour was on a Saturday and many of the establishments were very crowded. Tour guide Ben did an excellent job. | ||||||
