The Christmas Tree Crawl Experience Chicago at the Holidays

Overview

On this nostalgic and educational tour, we will lead you on a "Christmas treasure hunt" through downtown Chicago in search of the most stunning and impressive Christmas trees and other holiday decorations — and we know where they are! This tour includes not only visits to well-known stops like the Christkindlmarkt and the old Marshall Field’s, but also to little-known stops that contain some of the best holiday decorations downtown. You’ll learn about the origins of some world-famous Christmas characters — some of them from Chicago, some not — as well as the history behind Christmas traditions practiced by people around the world.

We LOVED the Christmas Tree Crawl! Fun, entertaining, educational, a decent but not overwhelming walk with Hillary, our guide who knows her stuff and whose passion for it shows. A perfect mix of indoor and outdoor locations and even a Frango Mint! We've done many different Christmas activities around the city and this is one of the most unique and memorable. No better way to get into the holiday spirit!

My husband and I took this tour on our empty nesters do Christmas in Chicago trip. I love Christmas decorations and we hadn’t done a tour in Chicago in a few years. Our tour guide was the owner of the company and was filled with knowledge about the city, the decorations and local architecture. I was worried that I would get so cold that I wouldn’t be able to enjoy myself but there were plenty of inside stops that warmed me back up. We saw some beautiful trees, took some fabulous photos and had lots of fun. I would recommend having dinner reservations in the Millennium Park area around or after 6pm afterwards. Many restaurants that you usually didn’t need reservations for were closed for private holiday parties.

Hillary is a wealth of knowledge and knows exactly where to go in Chicago. She is also very friendly and welcoming, if not a bit cheeky. We learned so much about the city and its tremendous influence on our society and culture. It was so much fun.
