Wonderful tour with Alan! - Alan was a great tour guide - lots of fun information and entertained all of our questions. It was my 17 year old daughter’s first trip to Chicago, so I wanted her to get to see as much of the main parts of the city as possible, and we definitely hit all the ones I had on my list! The bus itself was clean and well cared for, and I like that it was smaller than the other buses because it made it much more personal. Alan also had great recommendations for places to go, where to eat, and was able to give ideas for spots that were of interest to us specifically. Highly recommended!

Great Tour, it was cold in January so this was a great way to see the city and stay warm! - Great tour guide, very knowledgeable and fun. Small bus was clean and comfortable. It was very cold in January so this was a great way to see the city and highlights and get some good insight to places you may overlook.

Worth it! - Love all the information of the buildings’ history! Seeing them in one area was amazing! The tour took about an hour. I didn’t visit the bar/cocoa area downstairs but it’s great that they have one. The guide was funny and friendly. He interacted with us as well. Once trip was over, he stood by to say bye to everyone. I would do it again!
