    We stayed a week in Chicago and this was the highlight for me. With the knowledgeable and friendly guide, we learned about the historical context of the art as well as the art itself. My husband and I both felt like the information was synthesized really thoughtfully and presented with care. It was great walking around to see the art and the guide to hear the information he gave as well as answering any questions the group had. Highly recommend this tour!

    Easy walking tour that you can book ahead or last minute if you're looking for something to do. I would've given 5 STARS had I worn earbuds but it was still good listening to the audio with my phone speaker.

    I needed to cut the tour short because I was out of time but because the price is so inexpensive it didn't bother me at all. Had I completed the tour, I would've been too far from where I needed to be next.

    The directions were easy to follow and user friendly. At times I just sat down on a bench or chair and listened. There are plenty of places to stop and pause along the way but if you're more of a speed walker you can do that too.

    We ordered the SUV voucher and a Toyota Camry was sent which is a different price. It was very confusing because I was speaking with 2-4 different people for one pickup.

    They texted the day before to confirm and called as I was landing and again before I was able to get off the plane. This was an international flight so it took 45-90 min to deplane and receive luggage from customs. I received 2 more calls while waiting for my luggage and a picture of the car. I called them when I was informed of the car type for it to be corrected before excited the terminal. I explained that we had 6 bags and my husband and I are both of 6'1 and wouldn't fit comfortably in that size car.

    When we exited, the Camry pulled up and tried to convince us we could fit, we just flew 15+ hrs in economy airline seats, no way were we going to cram again after that flight. I called them again and they stated a different car would be there in 5min, 10 min later I called for a status and the dispatch conferenced in the driver who asked why I kept calling and stated I just needed to wait.

    Moments later a SUV pulled up, but that whole exchange and the back and forth was frustrating and was not customer friendly.

    The tour was very informative and interesting. Our guide was fascinating to listen. I did not like the fact that the ticket price in the theater is much cheaper than you sell. I believe the tour was shortened, we were not able to see the stage and backstage of the theater ( Madonna’s concert).

    I did the 5pm tour and it was great to see the city both during daylight and later with all the buildings lit up. Diane, the tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and the whole crew really nice. I enjoyed the small boat and can only recommend this tour

    Was in Chicago with my daughter, who’s an architect, and her family to support her ruining the Chicago marathon. Bought tickets for the whole family and did the noon tour. It was a must do in Chicago and well worth the time and money

    Great location. We had a great experience doing the "gold rush room." Nathan was our game master and was very helpful and fun. We were by ourselves in our time slot, and we didn't make it out. Had we another pair of eyes and hands, the outcome might have been different. Still was fun and highly recommended 👌

    We had an amazing trip on the seadog Oct 17th 2023 - beautiful day for a thrash about in the waves - WOW !! Then a fantastic trip through Lake Michigan Lock and into the River with Daniel as our very knowledgeable guide. Would definitely recommend. our kids aged 17 and 21 loved it - as did we. Just the right balance of fun, exhilaration and educational too !

    I have been a fan of the Chicaho Bulls, and this has been the most amazing experience I have had in my life. We got everything we expected from the Bulls House. We really enjoyed watching a basketball game for the first time. I recommend this experience at least one time in life for anyone who likes and loves sports.

    Fun ride! Would not have been able to see so many sights up close if we had not been on the segway. Plus we got some time to just play!

    We enjoyed the game, although we were quite disappointed with how much foot traffic there was in the upper level on the stairs. We had seats by the aisle and it was infuriating how many people do not respect the game by simply waiting for an inning break! They evidently do nothing to protect that - not signs encouraging patrons to wait and not block others' view of home plate. Also frustrating to have to wait in a long line just to pay for the ice cream, and then a 2nd long line to get the product! Beautiful view of Chicago - we were treated to 360 degree views of fireworks out on the platform - way cool! Getting back on the metro afterward was quite miserable and not for those with claustrophobia! This was due to it being the 4th of July, complete with fireworks after the game, PLUS $5 Tuesday food specials night. We even waited for almost everyone to leave the stadium before we went down to exit. The ballpark itself is fine.

    The name of Chicago brings to mind many images. Busy, noisy streets; lots of tall buildings; maybe a murder or two. But one thing which you probably wouldn’t expect to find in Chicago are cute little cottages. There are a lot of tall buildings here too, including a building which was once the tallest building in the USA. Ronnie also showed us inside and it truly is magnificent. The oldest tavern in Chicago is also in this area.

    The cottages, however, are the focal point of the tour and they are fascinating. They are known as the Workers Cottages and were built because a lot of people came to work in Chicago and needed homes. The cottages display a wide range of styles and colours, some of them designed by prominent architects. They really are lovely to look at, all of them different.

    In addition to showing us the cottages, Ronnie also gave a history of Chicago and how it grew from its small population of the 1800s to the big, thriving city it is today. Many well-known people have lived in this area, including a General who was involved in a very famous battle, a graphic artist who designed for a couple of well-known products and a German who was very active in the LGBTQIA+ community. Other famous people have pretended to live in this area – a couple of the cottages have featured in a film.

    Ronnie clearly has a lot of enthusiasm for the workers cottages and it was very special to see the house that first inspired its interest. Ronnie has clearly put a lot into creating a tour which is fun, informative and full of surprises.

    Easy to book online. Communication was good to keep us informed (and to remind us of the times we booked). Driver was on time and got us to our hotel as quickly as possible with local traffic. Would definitely use again!
