August 2026 - Such a fun and knowledgeable tour. The guide was very informative and friendly and it was neat to see all of the places. We did also get to see the inside of the firehouse which is neat.

Amazing Chicago Fire Tour with Dean! - My best friend and I visited Chicago for her birthday. We booked in advance with Dean and he was an amazing host! He kept us informed about a schedule change and was still able to accommodate us on the same day! The tour was incredibly detailed, fun, and immersive. On top of this he was further able to give us an impressive tour of the city and the Shameless tour ! We were so blessed to have him as our tour host, and he was incredibly gracious and patient despite weather setbacks. Please book this tour if you are ever in Chicago🙏Highly recommend 5stars!!!

10/10 Recommend!! - If you're a fan of Chicago PD or Chicago Fire, this tour is an absolute must! Deen was an incredible tour guide. He knows so much about both the filming locations and the city of Chicago itself, and he even took us to a few extra spots that weren't officially part of the tour.
He was so friendly, easy to talk to, and made the whole experience feel personal rather than rushed. The vehicle he picked us up in was spotless, comfortable, and made for a great ride around the city.
One of the highlights was when he took us down near the Planetarium so we could get an amazing photo by Lake Michigan with the Chicago skyline in the background. It's a spot we never would have thought to visit on our own, and now it's one of our favorite pictures from the trip!
This tour ended up being one of the highlights of our visit to Chicago. We learned so much, saw places we never would have found ourselves, and had a fantastic time. I highly recommend booking with Deen!

Chicago Fire/PD Tour with Dean - I’m a huge fan of the trio, Med, Fire and PD so this tour was a must do! Dean was very prompt, knowledgeable and courteous! My husband and I booked the tour and we thoroughly enjoyed hearing about Dean’s background opportunities on the set. We were unable to tour the firehouse as there was a closed sign on the door (due to an AC issue). We went to the PD Headquarters, one of the other Fire Station locations and Mollies. I look forward to returning to Chicago and taking the AA tour with Dean. Highly recommended tour!

Best tour guide ever! - What an amazing time with Deen as our tour guide! My daughter and I are big fans and he made sure to show us so many cool sites related to the show and even some extras around the city that we probably wouldn’t have seen if not for him. He was flexible with where he picked us up and dropped us off, and had great stories and knowledge to share throughout the tour. He is such a nice guy and it was fun spending time with him during our tour, laughing a ton! He was able to get us into the firehouse where we were lucky enough to get a tour from a firefighter and purchase some t-shirts. He also let us hang out at Molly’s for a bit and enjoy a drink.
Deen was also super patient as the other party with us took a bit longer with photos and drinks. He never once complained even when our tour time went over the two hours that were scheduled. I can’t recommend this tour and Deen enough!!

Chicago Tv tour with Dean - Reserved this tour to see the Chicago TV series sites. It did not disappoint. Our tour guide and driver Dean gave a great tour. Showing key points of Chicago sites and then the fire academy, pd headquarters, fire station and Mollies and more.
Dean is excellent and fun to have as the tour guide, he is always working on ways to improve.
If you love the Chicago Tv series and want to see more of Chicago , this is a great option

My tour of Firehouse 51 - I have been a fan of the shows for years. I really had no idea what to expect, but Dean went above and beyond!!! It was raining and he got out and took pictures for me. He took us around and showed us many locations. Mollys aka Lottie’s was so awesome. He was so patient while we sat and took everything in. I would recommend this tour to anyone
