This tour went through an area I live in, and was a great way for my out of town visitors to get true Chicago flavor, without a schlep! For me, I thoroughly enjoyed all the background information on murals I’ve admired, as well as the discovery of hidden gems I never would have found on my own. As many other reviewers have said-Milo is excellent! Informative, patient, he’s a guy you will just enjoy hanging out with anyway, with his trove of knowledge and insight like the icing and cherry on a cake.

I have lived in Chicago for most of my adult life, but have been blind to the street art emerging around me. It took a visit from a grandson to introduce me to wonders in neighborhoods that are not on my usual path. Milo, our guide for the tour, did an excellent job explaining both the creative and technical aspects of the murals we saw and putting them in a historical and social perspective. A worthwhile, informative, and enjoyable tour for both tourists and locals.

This is a fantastic tour. Our guide, Milo, was extremely knowledgeable about art and the area, and also very friendly & engaging. We would not have explored these neighborhoods if it wasn’t for the tour; thinking about all the gems we saw, I am grateful we did this! Highly, highly recommend. I would post some beautiful pictures, but don’t want to spoil the tour (although apparently some of the art is covered up/new pieces appear rather frequently).
