Don’t hesitate to book this tour! - We had the best time on our foodie bike tour with guides, Gabe, and Wyatt! We really loved riding through the different neighborhoods, seeing the sites and tasting delicious food… especially the shrimp tacos. We were lucky enough to have a beautiful sunny day. Our favorite thing we’ve done in Chicago. Don’t hesitate to book this tour!

Yummy! - We went on the Chicago's West Side Foodie Ride Bike Tour and it was awesome. We've been on a lot of food tours and this was one of the best. Chicago is surprisingly bikeable and the weather was perfect. The food choices were superb - pizza, pierogi, taco, tart, and chocolate. Our guide Joe was knowledgeable and friendly and the start location was easy to find and convenient to our hotel in downtown Chicago. Pleasant way to experience Chicago, learn a little more about the city, and have some good eats!

See the cooler side of Chicago and eat the better for it! - The bike and food tour was wonderful. Tryfon the bike guide was knowledgeable, funny, and informative. He was cautious and supportive for all the bikers in the group, young and old. The food stops were excellent, first it was Roma style pizza, then perogies, then tacos, then custard, and finally chocolate. The bike ride through the neighborhoods and views were wonderful. The day was cool and bright, it was a perfect day and tour.

Top Notch Tour - This tour was amazing! There was far more food than I had anticipated, and it was definitely "foodie" worthy. Gabe was such an incredible guide. He had everything down to perfection with keeping us safe and calling ahead to each location so they were ready when we arrived. He handled a challenging situation so professionally, too. We loved this tour so much, we will probably repeat it next summer!

Tasty samplings, educational, exercise - My husband and I really enjoyed this tour. Our guide, Joe, was knowledgeable, and friendly. After a brief safety session, he led us through the city and through a variety of towns. He gave us information about the areas at stoplights and during our meals. Because Joe alerted the restaurants of our arrival, we never waited too long for our meals. We enjoyed the exercise, the tasty samplings of food and learning about the city. Highly recommend!

A Great way to Spend an Afternoon - A great introduction to some wonderful Chicago neighborhoods and food stops carefully curated to highlight local businesses. The food samples were plentiful and tasty. The ride covered a lot of territory in a short time but was well paced. I highly recommend as a way to spend an afternoon whether you are visiting from out of town or a local to Chicago. Our guide Julia was superb- both informative and personable.
