Great Overview of Chicago City sites and neighborhoods - I traveled to IL for a family event and stayed over in Chicago for a few days with my 94-year-old Dad. The Minibus tour was a great way for us to see Chicago sites and neighborhoods, to get the lay of the land. The stops for photos was just enough. We enjoyed our tour guide, and explaining his jokes to the Swiss family in the bus. Everyone was friendly and enjoyed themselves.

Fantastic Tour - The city tour we did with Rick was very interesting and informative. He gave us a great overview of Chicago and gave us ample opportunity to take photos and go for short walks. His tips were great,especially the one about the deep pan pizza and the defibrillator. We would recommend a tour with him anytime.

Book as your first Chicago activity for an excellent overview tour & optimize your trip! - I was thrilled to discover this one-of-a-kind highly recommended mini van tour, and it certainly lived up to its reputation. Rick’s knowledge of Chicago’s key attractions was impressive. He not only provided insightful historical context but also shared intriguing tidbits about the neighborhoods and landmarks we visited. Rick’s delightful sense of humor added an extra layer of enjoyment, making the tour feel personalized and engaging. Going the extra mile, Rick generously offered us a plethora of recommendations for dining and additional sightseeing experiences, including an unforgettable architecture boat tour. my only regret was that I didn’t do the tour the first opportunity I had in Chicago so that I would’ve had a broader overview of how to strategically spend the rest of my time. If you’re planning a trip to Chicago, I wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to Rick for an unforgettable experience.
