The almost 2-hour ride flew by so fast! We got a very detailed review of the history of crime in Chicago. The tour guide was entertaining and knowledgeable. The ride was comfortable. We got out at a couple of places to get a more personal experience, which made it more fun. I loved this and recommend it highly. My only suggestion is that maybe they could add John Wayne Gacy in the tour. Everything lease was absolutely perfect.
