Kevin was the best tour guide. I was his first one person tour and he had an absolute blast. Not only was he professional but, he had a great conversation…it was almost like hanging out with a friend who had great Chicago information. Ian was also apart of my check in process and was very friendly and fun to interact with. Overall I would absolutely recommend this company to any solo travelers out there. The team is awesome and super friendly!

Great tour, great customer service. I was running about 15 minutes late due to traffic, and Clark was able to put me on the next tour, which was great so I didn't have to rush. Jeremy was our tour guide and he was awesome. I'll definitely be coming back. Thanks guys!

This is a must do tour, I would recommend doing it or as the very first activity after arriving to this beautiful city, or as a farewell tour to say goodbye to the city. We did the 6:00PM tour and it was great, you get to enjoy the city at dusk and early evening and how it lights up. Our tour guide, Jeremy, was great and funny and full of fun facts. Riding the segways was fun and they are quite safe, Jeremy made sure we were all taken care and looked after us. In short words. GREAT EXPERIENCE AND FANTASTIC TOUR TO ENJOY THE BEAUTY OF CHICAGO
