Great experience - not only for visitors. - Bryson is a great guide who enthusiastically engaged in riveting stories about Chicago. Living in Chicagoland for 20+ years, this experience is not only for tourists and visitors - you learn about the hidden sides of Chicago. I am somewhat glad that I didn't live in the 1920's Chicago.
