• LB-Dude 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Awesome Chicago Tour We had a group of 20 for a family reunion. Ages were from 16-70, with many 20-something’s. Everyone loved it. The guides were great. All really knew their stuff and this gave us a chance to see art we would never have found on our own, and to explore neighborhoods we wouldn’t have otherwise. This is a winner for local and visitor alike. Highly recommend. Read more Written August 11, 2019
