What you can expect

We start our tour under the dazzling marquee of the Chicago. First stop is inside one of the best-preserved spaces built for shopping in Chicago, featuring an unforgettable atrium at its core. 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. 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. From there, we’ll either hop on the ‘L’ train or a water taxi on the Chicago River (depending on the weather and time of year). Either option offers a uniquely local Chicago experience! Once we’re back on solid ground, we’ll make our way to another delicious destination for locally made chocolates from a Chicago staple. We’ll end up in the picturesque Millennium Park, home to the iconic Bean sculpture.

From there, we’ll make our way to another delicious destination for locally made chocolates from a Chicago staple.

Your food tour starts with a very well-known Chicago fare: the Chicago-style hot dog. Next up is the world-famous Chicago deep-dish pizza! Your guide will take you to a pizza place that’s an icon to Chicago natives to try the real deal for yourself.

After you’ve filled up on pizza and hot dogs, we’ll then continue our tasting journey with a classic Chicago sandwich: Italian beef. You’ll sample this sandwich in a real Chicago institution — no-frills decor included!
