Itinerary

  • Chicago Public Library - Hall Branch

    It was named for the city’s first African American Mayor, who served from 1983-87 and opened in 1991. Chicago’s known for having some of the finest architecture in the world.

    20 minutes

  • Financial District

    centered on LaSalle Street in the Loop, is the fulcrum of the heartland’s economic engines. Looming skyscrapers form a canyon-like effect down LaSalle, which ends abruptly with the Art Deco masterpiece of the Board of Trade on Jackson. Floridly-dressed commodity traders at the Board of Trade, regulators at the Chicago Fed, and bankers of all pinstripes know this power corridor very well.

    10 minutes

  • Calder’s Flamingo

    53-foot tall stabile located in the Federal Plaza in front of the Kluczynski Federal Building. It was commissioned by the United States General Services Administration and was unveiled in 1974, although Calder's signature on the sculpture indicates it was constructed in 1973.

    10 minutes

  • N/A

    For nearly 25 years after its completion, the Willis Tower, formerly known as the SearsTower, held the title of tallest building in the world. Standing 110 stories tall, its black aluminum and bronze-tinted glass exterior has become emblematic of Chicago, a city crazy about its architecture.

    20 minutes

  • The Rookery Building

    The Rookery building in the heart of Chicago’s financial district stands testimony to the resilience and creative spirit of late-nineteenth century Chicago. The rebirth of the city in the wake of the Great Fire of 1871 gave rise to the multi-storied office building that would transform the landscape of America’s cities.

    30 minutes

  • Palmer House Hilton Historic Lobby

    The story of downtown Chicago’s Palmer House Hilton is one of romance and undeniable charm. Potter Palmer was a Chicago business magnate—well-known for a variety of endeavors, including his significant role in the development of downtown Chicago’s iconic State Street.

Great Chicago Food Tour

Published on Jan, 2025

Was a great way to see lots of the downtown, and learn about some of the history of Chicago in a few hours. We got to try lots of great Chicago staples, and our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. Would definitely recommend this tour.

Half the tour group...

Published on Jan, 2025

Half the tour group didn’t show up because of the weather but Ben the tour guide still made it a very enjoyable and informative experience

Must do Food Tour

Published on Jan, 2025

Must do experience if you like food. We got to enjoy key Chicago food and it was all great! Enjoyed learning about the food, the city history, and the architecture on the tour. We went on a very cold day and it was still fine because there was enough inside time. Danny our tour guide was great and his love of the city showed through.
