Fun to be a tourist in my own city!

I have lived in Chicago my entire life, so I was expecting the Near North Food Tour to be more entertaining than educational. It was both! The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and upbeat, and the food we sampled was delicious. I loved learning about spices and olive oil, and finding some new places to shop for holiday gifts! This is a great way to sample some of Chicago's best foods, and to enjoy a leisurely walk through Chicago's most beautiful neighborhoods. I highly recommend this tour for visitors and Chicagoans alike!

Best Chinatown Experience Ever!

Our trip to Chicago's Chinatown would not have been the same without Chicago Food Planet. The tour was extremely educational, the staff was professional and very entertaining, and the food was very tasty and plentiful! The price of this tour is a very good value. My family and I plan to take another one of the tours offered by CFP on our next free day. What a treat!

Food tour not just about food... Had a great time!

I went on the Bucktown/Wicker Park tour a couple weeks ago with some friends from out of town and we had a great time! I'm a native Chicagoan and lived in Wicker Park for some time so I wondered how much I would learn about the city and the neighborhood. I was really suprised by the amount of history I learned!

The tour guide was a pro and the tour itself was well organized. He made the group laugh and had a lot of personality.

On the tour, we stopped into more than a handful of local eateries and were fed decent portion sizes. By the end of the tour, we were all stuffed. If you're a proud Chicagoan like myself, I promise that you will have a great time and learn a lot about your own backyard.

Great job Chicago Food Planet!
