Tour a piedi di Chicago: A Walk Through Time

Very exciting. The tour guide Mitch was very enthusiastic and inspiring, sharing lots of details of history, buildings and culture. Loved his passion!

My girlfriend and I did Mitch's "Walk Through Time" walking tour and it was easily a highlight of our entire trip to Chicago. We cannot recommend him highly enough. Mitch's knowledge is exceptional — he answered every question we threw at him with depth and confidence, and that's saying something, because my girlfriend is an architect. She was genuinely impressed, which is not easy to do. He clearly has a deep love for Chicago's built environment and it comes through in everything he shares. What really set the experience apart was how generous Mitch was with his time. We were all so engaged and enjoying ourselves that he simply kept going — no rushing, no watching the clock. That kind of flexibility made the tour feel personal rather than transactional. On top of all that, Mitch is friendly, clear, and easy to listen to. The pacing felt natural and we never felt lost or talked over. If you're visiting Chicago and have any interest in architecture — or even if you don't yet — book this tour and ask for Mitch. You won't regret it.

Very interesting and fun. We live in the city, but learned so much about the buildings. We highly recommend this tour for both locals and visitors. The 90 minute walk was leisurely and we didn't feel rushed. Best part, the ear pieces that they gave us allowed us to hear the tour guide on busy city streets. He was delightful and very informative, sorry, I can't remember his name.

A really enjoyable tour guided by JON. Jon shared some wonderful history and insight into a well curated group of buildings that we visited on the 90 minute tour. The tour was conducted at a gentle pace with plenty of stops and opportunities to ask questions which Jon dealt with really well. The tour helped us understand and appreciate the city history more and wad a really useful way to start our stay in the city. Would thoroughly recommend this tour - it represents great value for money.

Knowledgeable guide. A lot to see, really enjoyed it

Great tour and we definitely saw some hidden gems we would have missed otherwise, Jim was great!

Many years ago my family did the River Architecture Tour offered by the Chicago Architecture Center and that was a great experience. This time my wife and I chose to do a walking tour which covered the evolution of architecture in the city through time. We walked several blocks and viewed several buildings focusing on the evolution of building design and construction after the great fires of the late 19th century through the most recent developments in the contemporary period, including the very new Lake Shore East residential towers. Our docent was superb and we learned a lot about Chicago's great buildings. We highly recommend the tours offered by the CAC. It is a great organization that supports the preservation and appreciation of the magnificent structures that form Chicago's skyline.

Excellent tour with Edmund. A terrific overview of how architectural styles evolved over time. Very informative and engaging tour guide

We loved the tour! Amanda was an exceptional guide and we learned so much. We highly recommend it.

Mark, our tour guide, was knowledgeable and could explain the nuances of the growth and development of Chicago into a world class city. And enjoyable tour!
