    Ty was a great guide: clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about the city’s architecture. Ty was patient with the group and made sure all were gathered and could hear the explanations.

    Definitely recommend doing this tour. It was a great way to get to know the city. I had an awesome guide (Dave) , very knowledgeable, great sense of humor. The tour was dynamic, fun and filled with great sites. The food part was delicious and he offered a lot of tips for different restaurants and food options to go to for the rest of my Chicago stay. Tried them all and were awesome!

    Great tour with George. Excellent storytelling skills and well thought out stops in Chicago. Don't miss it if you’re in the city.

    Adam was humorous and very knowledgeable. All of us including my 10 years old enjoyed this incredible tour with rich architectural history and learning the birth of the Chicago. We definitely won’t be walking into the building Adam took us if we just walking around by ourselves. Highly recommended to anyone who visits Chicago.

    Our tour guide Joel could find a way to show off drying paint in a way that’s informative, entertaining, and fun. The combination of his knowledge and enthusiasm made us want to stay longer. He didn’t just know about the art - he tied it all to Chicago history and biographical history in the context of American and art history and the interests of our group.

    What a fantastic walking tour on a beautiful September day! Our guide, Larry, was not only knowledgeable about the architecture but entertained us with some humorous anecdotes about Chicago. His stories made our leisurely walk even more enjoyable and I look forward to taking some of the other tours, as well. Also, the gift shop is top notch!

    Thank you so much to our guide Maureen. We had such a lovely time and saw so much beauty and even as lifelong Chicagoans new aspects of old favorites. It was a great tour!
