We took my in-laws on Colin’s tour when they were visiting Chicago and we all had a great time! Even us locals learned a lot because he mixes in unique stories and history along with the more well-known facts. He’s also funny and engaging, definitely recommend!

If you’re in Chicago this tour is a must! Colin was so welcoming, knowledgeable and entertaining. He took us on a hidden journey around the city, to places there is no way we would have found without him! By far the best walking tour I’ve ever been on and I will definitely be recommending it to any friend that visits Chicago!
