Enjoyable and informative tour - Great, informative tour. Took just over 2 hours, at a relaxed pace. Bruce was fantastic - he is so passionate about his city! I was lucky to be part of a very small group - just 3 of us. Saw some hidden gems of Chicago, which I would’ve never noticed on my own.

Excellent Guide - Bruce was an excellent guide. He told us so much and readily answered our questions. Although we had to leave the tour early it has helped us navigate around Chicago for the following days.

Loved Our Chicago Tours - We ended up booking three tours with this company (Tours by Foot) and are so glad we did. It was my husband's first trip to the city and we had so much that we wanted to see. I really liked that this tour included going inside as well as giving us some history (and guidance) on using the L. Bruce was our guide and he was great!

Winter tour in Chicago - On our second trip to Chicago in as many months, we again looked up Tours by Foot for a Walking tour - This was our third tour in Chicago (and have been on their tours in other cities also. I'll admit it was nice they arranged for some indoor sites as well, as it was cold out. Bruce was our guide and showed a great deal of understanding about all the sites we visited - would recommend to all!

Fantastic morning with Aram! - Had a fantastic tour of the Loop and Downtown Chicago with Aram this morning. He was entertaining and extremely knowledgeable, keeping the group fully engaged for 2 hours. Chicago history is clearly a passion for him and it showed. His strong voice could be easily heard by all 25 of us. Would recommend this tour as a must do!

Informative and Enjoyable Tours - I did two tours with these guys - the Loop and Millennium Park one with Mike in the morning and the Riverwalk and History one with Aram in the afternoon. They had very different styles, but were both very informative and friendly guides. There was of course a degree of overlap between the two in terms of the stories they told, but not enough to be a problem and I was glad I did both rather than just one
