This turned out to be a great tour of the city for three generations! Our daughter lives in Chicago and we brought her grandparents along to visit. Rick was an excellent tour guide, who kept things interesting and engaging. We had an opportunity to get out a few times for some great photo ops, which did not required much walking. Even our daughter, who has lived there 8 years, learned a thing or two! Highly recommend!
