Best tour guide ever!

What an amazing time with Deen as our tour guide! My daughter and I are big fans and he made sure to show us so many cool sites related to the show and even some extras around the city that we probably wouldn’t have seen if not for him. He was flexible with where he picked us up and dropped us off, and had great stories and knowledge to share throughout the tour. He is such a nice guy and it was fun spending time with him during our tour, laughing a ton! He was able to get us into the firehouse where we were lucky enough to get a tour from a firefighter and purchase some t-shirts. He also let us hang out at Molly’s for a bit and enjoy a drink. Deen was also super patient as the other party with us took a bit longer with photos and drinks. He never once complained even when our tour time went over the two hours that were scheduled. I can’t recommend this tour and Deen enough!!

Operator response

Thank you so much for the kind words! We’re glad you and your daughter had an amazing time with Deen. Getting into the firehouse and time at Molly’s are always highlights, and we’re glad Deen’s stories and flexibility made the day special for you both. We’ll pass your feedback to Deen – he’ll love hearing this. Hope to see you again next time you’re in Chicago!

My tour of Firehouse 51

I have been a fan of the shows for years. I really had no idea what to expect, but Dean went above and beyond!!! It was raining and he got out and took pictures for me. He took us around and showed us many locations. Mollys aka Lottie’s was so awesome. He was so patient while we sat and took everything in. I would recommend this tour to anyone

Fun tour

Fun tour, it was interesting to see the actual firehouse and police station in the series. In the firehouse, one of the firemen actually showed us around, really nice guy! We are huge fans of the show, so we ate it up. All these locations are really free to everyone, but the tour allows you transportation and some background information. We also went to the fire academy, and the Chicago Cultural Center, and Millineum Park,and saw the Bean.well worth the tour, we really enjoyed it

We appreciate your patronage. Hope to see you again!

Book this tour!!

Wow, what a great tour! Deen is such a nice guy and a very informative guide. I was alone on my tour. Deen showed all interesting Chicago PD/Fire sites, such as; The Fire squad academy, Fire House 51, Chicago PD station and Molly's bar. And we went inside all of these locations. On our way to these locations Deen shared all type of interesting information about Chicago. He stopped on a few locations so I could make photos. In case you are a fan of the show(s), don't hesitate to book! It's worth all your money.
