Chicago Food Tour

Journey through Chicago’s exquisite culinary history on this gastronomic walking tour, available by day or by night. Enjoy a walking tour of around 3 hours through the city centre with an expert guide, and sample traditional dishes at various restaurants in Chicago.

You’ll sample some of Chicago’s most famous dishes, from pizzas and hot dogs to other delicacies, whilst taking in some of the city’s iconic landmarks during this walk of around three kilometres.

During the colder months, you’ll follow your guide through the Chicago Pedway system – a network of tunnels, ground-level concourses and bridges that keeps you comfortably warm. In warmer weather, you’ll stroll along the picturesque waterfront promenades of the Loop.

You’ll stroll along elegant Michigan Avenue and its famous ‘Magnificent Mile’, where you can admire exclusive fashion boutiques, restaurants and luxury hotels. You’ll pass such iconic landmarks on this shopping street as the historic Water Tower, the neo-Gothic Chicago Tribune Tower, the terracotta-clad Wrigley Building and the 100-storey John Hancock Centre.

In small groups of around 15 people, you’ll be able to admire up close the magnificent architecture of Chicago’s iconic Marquee Theatre . You’ll visit the Chicago Loop, the city’s bustling business district, and Millennium Park with its art collection. You’ll explore this art park and be amazed by its masterpiece, Cloud Gate. This stainless-steel sculpture is one of the most famous symbols of Chicago’s art and culture. Let yourself be swept away by the interactive art of the Crown Fountain, two glass-brick sculptures featuring the LED faces of over a thousand Chicago residents laughing and spitting.

You’ll walk along the River Chicago, which flows through the heart of the city centre’s skyscrapers, and marvel at the architecture and the stunning scenery. During the city tour, pop into four different establishments and restaurants to sample typical Chicago fare, such as a delicious cheese-stuffed pizza, authentic Chicago-style hot dogs and Italian-style beef sandwiches.
