Our tour guide was Dash. He was excellent. So knowledgeable about a variety of topics on Chicago---architecture; history;popular activities; and, of course food! He hit all the Chicago classics---the dog; the beef sandwich; and pizza. He also shared his website with us that had a massive amount of information and links to all of it. Really well done and a super nice guy. I would recommend this tour to everyone!

One of the best food tours we’ve been on in the U.S.! Chicago Dave knows his city and its food well and had the perfect balance of seeing things, hearing about the history, and of course eating some amazing Chicago delicacies. My only advice - there is a lot of food, so eat a small breakfast or be prepared to have leftovers for dinner!
