We had so much fun! Brian was an amazing tour guide and he really took care of our group! We enjoyed talking with the owners of the company and the purveyors at each location. Thanks for teaching us all that Chicago has to offer for pizza!!

What a great tour! We've been around the world taking food tours wherever we go whenever we have the chance. Steve took us on his bus tour and it was excellent. Who knew there were so many styles of pizza? We ended up tasting 5 different styles (deep dish, detroit, ny, tavern, and artisan) and loved every single minute of it. Steve has an amazing fund of knowledge about all things food in Chicago (not just pizza - he's a Chicago food reporter) and provided us with the what/where/when/how/why for everything related to the pizzas we sampled. Our party of 6 had a fabulous time!!…

Went on a three person tour today with Nathalie, touring four pizza venues in the Bucktown/Wicker Park neighborhoods. Because it was a small crowd, we learned an exponential amount about the pies, their lineage and ingredients. Nathalie was very informative, friendly and professional; also Covid-observant. Our favorite was My Pie where the owner came outside to describe the history of his stores. His presentation was thorough and friendly. The neighborhoods we explored were wonderful: historic, upbeat and edgy. Would highly recommend this experience. Lizzie M.…

Thanks Elizabeth for the kind review. We agree, Natalie is one of our rock star Doughcents, and the deep-dish at My Pi is truly extraordinary (since 1971!). So glad you got to see two of Chicago's hip neighborhoods as well; we are so much more than Michigan Avenue and Navy Pier. Hope to see you on another tour one day.

This was such a great use of time and money! Our tour guide, Brian, was very passionate about all different types of pizza and had sooo much knowledge to share with us about origins, ingredients, cooking (and even cutting!) styles, and more. The weather was beautiful, the pizza was delicious and the evening was relaxing even though we walked all over the loop! Definitely recommend.…

My friend and I took the "Inaugural" Pizza City Walking Tour and had a wonderful time. Not only was the weather amazing, I went to a couple places that I have never heard or been before and I am from Chicago. Our tour guide, Natalie was very knowledgeable and professional and accomodated us with our dietary restrictions. You will not see pizza the same way after the tour! This is a MUST do if you love food and Chicago!…
