Our casual walk around the neighborhood suddenly became structured and organized with this very informative walking tour. We did it at the time we wanted and at our own pace, and very economically!! We discovered some places we will certainly go back to see with more time! I will look up this practical "tour guide" for other places I intend to visit.

Practical (you start and stop and your own convenience!) and economic way to visit the key things to see in the Gold Coast. Some of the sites could merit a visit in themselves which the virtual guide indicates, however you need to do this tour early enough in the day to be sure that these sights are open.

I discovered some new places to visit, like the Museum of Medical Science, and the Three Arts Building. I also coupled this tour with the Chicago History Museum, which is really cool. Overall, it is a very enjoyable walk, and you can do the tour at your own pace. Beautiful historical homes in Chicago's Gold Coast neighborhood.
