The food! Delicious - Dash was great and showed us around some of the main spots, he’ll also give you a website with recommendations for things to see/do/eat!
Dash is very knowledgeable and kept the conversation going. He not only gave us a food tour but gave us an architecture and history tour of Chicago during the walk.
It was great!
It was good to hear about the history of Chicago.
This tour was awesome!! Our guide Dash was incredibly knowledgeable. The food was amazing at all three stops, and I’m glad we got a chance to go on the El.
I thought the tour will include more ‘local’ places and their stories. We have stopped at 3 places, and the information provided was a quick google search level. I have taken a few food in different countries, and this one was by far the least enriching one.
Delicious food, we were shown places we would otherwise never have found ourselves. The guide was very friendly, enthusiastic and informative on many topics, not just about food 🙂
The tour was great! The food choices were delicious. Our guide Rich was so interesting to talk with and we learned a lot of Chicago background. I highly recommend the tour.
Quick walk through of some Chicago specialties. Compared to other food tours in the US and Europe this was not up to the standard of the others. But OK.
