This tour was not just a wonderful opportunity to learn some terrifying history about Chicago, it was also a fantastic chance to appreciate the beauty of the architecture, even for someone who has lived in the area for 8 1/2 years. Andre our tour guide was animated, knowledgeable, and hilariously entertaining! The walking was maybe a mile and a half in total at an easy pace, and it’s a great way to stroll and enjoy city sights and sounds. The walking and violent stories might be a little much for young children—we were glad we got a sitter!
