Two Miles of Fun, Food and History

| Chicago Food Planet's Near North Food Tasting and Cultural Walking Tour is a leisurely two-mile excursion into several Chicago neighborhoods, with stops for plenty of local delicacies, spiced with Chicago history. We sampled potato pancakes, gourmet tea, exotic cinnamons, flavored oils and vinegars, luscious chocolates, specialty cheeses and--of course--Chicago's famous stuffed pizza. Our friendly, knowledgeable guide treated us to information about the foods we ate, the shops we visited, and Chicago's history, architecture, famous places and people. Though there wasn't time for shopping along the way, each participant received a complete list of the shops visited (including addresses, phone numbers, web sites, hours of operation, and instructions for returning by public transit), a map of the tour route, coupons, and additional restaurant suggestions. It's a delicious way to explore the Second City! | ||||||

| My husband and I felt as though this was one of the most enjoyable tours we have taken anywhere in the world. Not only did we get to experience a wide range of local Chicago food stops, we got to walk thru 3 different neighborhoods--which we would never normally do as tourists. There were such interesting surprises on the tour--Spice World being my favorite--and our guide was an absolute delight! I will look for similar tours in other cities we visit, but this would be hard to top. | ||||||

| This was a fabulous way to enjoy the sites and tastes of Chicago...off the beaten path. Our guide was wonderful and the weather was perfect for the almost 4hour tour...it was a long walk...beautiful! The only reason I did not give 5 stars...although the stops on the tour were wonderful, there was not enough real food to be considered a meal, in my mind. Chocolate, tea, olive oil and spices do not quite fill me up!! ;) So, I would suggest eating a light meal before going...or plan to head back to one of the two "food" spots after for a late meal!! | ||||||

| We took the Near North Food Tasting Walking Tour on Saturday October 18th at 12:30. Our guide was fantastic and we really enjoyed the places on the tour. Of course the food was fantastic, from the potato pancakes to the chocolates and pizza. The stops at the spice house and the oil and vinegar store were great! Not the usual venue and so appreciated. Very personable young lady guiding us and she seemed to enjoy this as much as we did. | ||||||

| My wife and I, who are not from Chicago, decided to take this tour with my sister-in-law and her boyfriend to try something new. My sister-in-law and boyfriend live in downtown Chicago so we were afraid they might be bored. From the very beginning the tour was very professional yet relaxed. The guide was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the food, drink, local culture and architecture. After about 30 mins my sister-in-law and boyfriend were commenting on how much they had learned even though they had been to a few of the restaurant stops. I would recommend this tour to anyone. The walking pace was comfortable and the guide would check every now and then just to make sure. This tour is great and you don't have to worry about getting enough food because you eat a little here and a little there from start to finish. At the end of the tour we were told that a new tour is starting in a different area of Chicago and we are all already planning on taking that tour as well. Great tour, definitely do it | ||||||

| We really enjoyed the walking tour and the various tastings. The places we visited were unique with quality products. They are places I probably would not have entered if it were not for the tour. I will be sure to stop by or order online now that I know how good they are. The information shared about the neighborhoods was also very interesting. Our guide did a great job. I highly recommend this tour to visitors and to Chicago natives! | ||||||

| The Near North Food Tour was worth the time and cost. Our guide, Katie, was informative, nice and kept the tour moving. The stops along the way were well chosen and we particularly liked Katie's architectural and historical comments. | ||||||

| What a great tour! I really enjoyed all the details about the architecture and history of the buildings and neighborhoods we passed through. All the food was delish and very representative of the city of Chicago . This really made my trip to Chicago one I'll never forget. Kate was a great tour guide. | ||||||

| Our group greatly enjoyed this tour. You won't get insanely full, but you will try many different types of "food". I use the term food loosely though, as teas, spices, vinegar, oils, and chocolate tastings are also part of the tour. I don't consider this food, but more as condiments/flavorings/dessert. There was a great deep dish pizza tasting at the end though. However, don't let this discourage you. The spices are great, the chocolate delicious, and the oils have so much variety, you'll leaving wanting to buy everything! This tour is also a neighborhood history lesson and our guide was very friendly, upbeat, and informative. We will definitly try out the other tours they offer. Good job! | ||||||

| My boyfriend and I had a great time on the tour. The tour guide was fantastic. The resturants/shops that we visited were very unique. They are places that i probably would have never found on my own. I also plan to purchase items online from these shops. Its a nice way to see the city and also learn your way around. I would recommend this tour! | ||||||

| The tour was a great way to see the city. There wasn't much food, but what we did eat was great. Our tour guide Rebecca was very friendly, and you could tell she really enjoyed her job. I would reccomend this to anyone who wants to see parts of Chicago that you wouldn't normally see as a tourist. | ||||||
