Rick was a lively, funny and informative guide. The trip gave you a good taste of the area and would recommend you do it on the first day so you have a better idea of what you want to explore further. Rick was kind enough to leave us close to another stop which was much appreciated.

This was a gun and informative trip with Rick. He is very knowledgeable about the city and the architecture, and made it a fun trip as well

Rebecca_W

My sister and I were in Chicago for the weekend and this mini bus tour was a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, friendly, and funny. It was great seeing the different types of architecture throughout the downtown area and learning the history of the buildings. Being able to see many of the main tourist attractions was great when we had a limited amount of time in the city. I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone who has a very limited time in Chicago, but wants to see as much as they can.

Vanessa_B

It was great touring the financial district. Chicago is an awesome place to visit. It was a little cold but things went well.

DIANNE_D

Rick, our driver and guide was very knowledgeable about the history of Chicago, and pointed out some great sights and scenes.

Suzanne_S

I traveled to IL for a family event and stayed over in Chicago for a few days with my 94-year-old Dad. The Minibus tour was a great way for us to see Chicago sites and neighborhoods, to get the lay of the land. The stops for photos was just enough. We enjoyed our tour guide, and explaining his jokes to the Swiss family in the bus. Everyone was friendly and enjoyed themselves.
