John was an amazing guide - very well informed and prepared. He made everyone feel very included. I learned so much during the tour. He picked beautiful places - I walked by them so many times and never thought to step in or look up. Chicago has so many treasures. Highly recommend it.

Jill a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Great insight into chicago architecture.Highly recommend.

Knowledgeable, experienced docent. Very short walk, about 4-5 blocks along LaSalle St, with 4 stops to examine the outer facades and first floor lobbies of 4 different buildings. Interesting and beautiful spaces you might not expect as you are walking past on the street.

Great and knowledgeable tour guide. Very much recommended tour! Gave us a great overview of modernistic architecture in Chicago

Excellent tour. Monica is superb. She gave a lot of interesting information and took us to places and showed things we would have never discovered by ourselves. Highly recommended experience.

Our tour guide was Sally and she was wonderful. A wealth of knowledge and so very nice and kind. You get complimentary headphones and a radio that allows you to hear everything about every building. This is an outside only tour so you don’t go up in any building, but was very cool to learn some history and to see the different styles and construction methods. Great tour!

As a Chicago native I was amazed how much new information and historical perspective my wife and I got. Our docent was truly excellent

David was such a great guide! It was a lot of fun and very interesting to learn more about the different buildings and how they are connected with the city. We knew a little about architecture before but not too much and I think the tour is great for all regardless if their knowledge!

Mitch was an amazing tour guide. His education and enthusiasm of Michigan Ave. was impressive. Thank you Chicago Architecture Center for offering this tour. We loved it!

Ellen was a knowledgeable and fun guide for the pedway tour. She answered questions and explained the history, design style, and architects of several buildings near the pedway system.

Being a member of the Chicago Architecture Center has been so wonderful this past year. The invitations to educational lectures, films, engaging exhibits and social fun is the very best the city offers.

Took the Chicago Architecture Center's 90 minute walking tour entitled "Loop as Lab" with guide Karen. An excellent, highly enjoyable tour of the center of the city with background history on the planning behind many of the city's most interesting downtown buildings, A wonderful complement to the Architecture Center's crown jewel.....which is the not be missed river architecture cruise.

As part-time residents of Chicago who rarely use public transportation, this tour gave us a new perspective on buildings and neighborhoods we see all the time. Our guide Amanda was wonderful. She provided thorough historical background, described distinctive features of the many buildings highlighted in the tour, and brought to life the people and events that brought the L into being and shaped its long history. She answered the many questions we had, and we appreciated how much she enjoyed sharing the distinctive history of the Loop with us. We look forward to doing other tours with Amanda and deepening our knowledge about the great city we live in.

I really enjoyed the Rookery Building tour led by Joan J. It is an impressive building with a stunning interior. Joan's enthusiasm for the building and her extensive knowledge of its history and architectural details make this a delightful one hour tour.

Wonderful experience to see a building with so much of the original interior and decor intact. We had a seasoned tour guide who was interesting and knowledgeable. Visited an artist and violin maker. We were able to see the amazing Studebaker theatre and hear its history.
