Great tour guide and experience. - Great tour, David our guide was very knowledgeable. He took us to places we never would have looked at but WOW. Food was a real bonus it will fill you up. The popcorn stop was an eye opener who would have thought cheese and caramel would be so tasty 😂. Would definitely recommend this tour Chicago is an amazing city and thanks to David it was such an enjoyable experience.

Fantastic tour! - Dave was an excellent tour guide! He was very patient, was full of fantastic information, and answered all of our questions. He took time to explain about the details in each location and checked in with us to make sure we were all enjoying our time. This was our first visit to Chicago and the first thing we did and that was the best choice. Not only did we learn and experience so much but we had great launching point for the rest of our visit. We would highly recommend this tour and especially Dave!

Good tour, bad weather. - This was a fun tour and our guide was very knowledgeable! We enjoyed the things we saw very much. Our only concern was the guide’s initial lack of concern about approaching bad weather, which meant that we were caught outside in heavy rain with tornado warning sirens going off. Although we ended up inside and out of the weather, we were all pretty wet by the time that happened. It really seemed like he could have taken steps earlier to mitigate that. But the information was good and the food was good. Go in good weather!
