What you can expect

Join us on a tour of some of Chicago’s greatest hits: incredible architecture both old and new, delicious local treats, stunning river views, and much more!

We start our tour under the dazzling marquee of the Chicago Theatre where you might recognise the neon sign from the film musical Chicago. Our first stop is inside one of the best-preserved spaces built for shopping in Chicago.

We’ll then head towards the Chicago Pedway. This unique feature of Chicago is used by locals and commuters daily to move about the city in a network of underground tunnels. Midwest winters. We’ll head back above-ground near City Hall, and on most weekdays, be able to head inside to see the classic interior design and architecture.

Next, we’ll make our way to a spot where we’ll share a sweet treat, and a local tradition: Chicago-style popcorn. Weather permitting, we’ll take a stroll along the Chicago Riverwalk while taking in views of several soaring buildings, including Marina Towers, the Britannica Building, and the Sears Tower (now known as the Willis Tower).

From there, we’ll make our way to another delicious destination. Along the way, you’ll be able to enjoy views of the world-famous Wrigley Building and the incredible Chicago Tribune building, the heart of Chicago’s thriving and historic journalism industry. Your second tasty confection is locally made chocolate from a Chicago staple.

We’ll end up in the picturesque Millennium Park, home to the iconic Bean sculpture. Here (or nearby), your guide will conclude your tour and point you in the right direction towards more amazing sights, great lunch spots, or a drink recommendation inside one of the most amazing spaces in the city.
