Happy customer

If you want the BEST food tour in Chicago... this is the one!! Our tour guide..James was AMAZING! Very funny and knowledgeable. It was a plus riding on a bus and not walking for 3 hours. I felt extremely safe with our driver. The food was soooo good and learning some of the history of Chicago pizza was very interesting. Treat yourself to this tour when you're in the city. You'll be glad that you did!

Disappointed

I have taken this tour in the past and it was awesome. This time was just a let down. The bus was a regular school bus, previously we were on a deluxe air-conditioned motor coach. We only went to 3 places instead of four. They were only a few blocks apart. For the amount we paid this was not worth the money. We actually just walked back because it was only four blocks from where we started. The pizza was good at least. Wish I could have gotten a refund!

James was an amazing guide, lots of laughs and loads of pizza, prepare to be stuffed, you get multiple slices of different flavors and variations of pizza in four stops. I would recommend this to everyone.

Great tour whether you’re visiting or live in the area.

The pizza tour went way above our expectations. It’s hard to choose a favorite pizza place because they were all amazing.

My cheese bubbles over

James was a bubbling cheese volcano of Chicago pizza facts. He also threw in some humor, which was nice. The pizza was great and varied in style. We had a great time!

One of the Main Reasons I Went to Chicago!

When I planned my Chicago vacation one of the main things I wanted to do was eat pizza! This was a great tour. We bounced around four different pizza restaurants and savored more types of pizza than I can remember. My guide was as cool as the pizza. He was actually a writer for comics and kept us all entertained. Not only did I get to taste the goodies but saw a couple of the pizza ovens as well. I had no issues being a solo traveler on this tour. It was all great!

Pizza + Comedy is a Great Combination!

Excellent tour. James, the tour guide was hilarious and engaging. As a comedy writer (and former 2nd City performer), he was perfect for this. We didn't get to 2nd City on this trip to Chicago. But we got 2nd City anyway, with James! The only downside (if you can call it that) was that it was a LOT of pizza in a short timeframe.
