Loop Interior Architecture Tour August 23, 2013Pedway cruising and a trip to the odd and perhaps a little bit modern creepy block 37 made this tour fun! (Inside Architecture). Great for a stroll through the parts unknown.
We got a great map of the pedestrian system (If you can even follow that) and a surprise for Pastoral!). Loved it! -

Loop Interior Architecture Tour July 8, 2013My girlfriend and I took the architectural walking tour with Elizabeth. Being our first time in Chicago we both learned so much about the rich history of some of the buildings and the pedways underneath it and how it interconnected with other buildings. Elizabeth was very knowledgeable about the history. Both of us learned alot and enjoyed it tremendously and would definitely recommend it to anyone who is interested about the history of Chicago. The ipads made it more interactive and seeing some of the footage of the past really made it more fun.

Loop Interior Architecture Tour June 26, 2013Four of us took the Loop Interior Architectural Tour with Michael as our guide. The trip was great. We are local Chicagoans so we were surprised at how much we learned. And, it was fun. Michael was great; very informative, enthusiastic, professional. I would recommend this to tourists and locals.

Loop Interior Architecture Tour May 20, 2013Wasn't quite sure of what to expect on our Interior Loop Architectural Tour but it was fantastic. Amanda provided a lot of history & interesting points & treats along the way. Would definitely book another tour & recommend Chicago Detours to friends.

Loop Interior Architecture Tour May 7, 2013The Inside the Loop architectural Chicago Detours tour is an engaging and fun way to spend a beautiful few hours in Chicago. Amanda is a knowlegable and fun guide and the added mix of technology- using iPads to show additional photos and film clips- enhances the experience. Top it off with interesting tidbits of information about everything from the old Marshall Fields to the Pedway to the Chicago Cultural Center and you'll leave with an even bigger appreciation of this amazing city! (And some goodies and samples to take away.) Great for visitors and residents of Chicago alike- cannot wait to take the Good Times Historic Bar Tour next.

Loop Interior Architecture Tour March 4, 2013I recently did the Interior Architecture tour of the Loop and loved every minute of it. It was an engaging, very informative, and fun way to explore this part of the city. Our guide was awesome- knowledgeable and entertaining. I'm bummed I only had enough time to do one tour. I will definitely check out their other tours during my next visit to Chicago. It was worth every penny!

Loop Interior Architecture Tour December 31, 2012I went on the Inside the Loop Interior Architectural Tour and enjoyed it very much. The guide was knowledgeable, personable, and encouraged dialogue and discussion. One of the highlights was the Chicago Temple - United Methodist Church. I have walked by it countless times but have never been in it. I'm usually in a hurry when I'm in the Loop. This tour gave me the opportunity to slow down and see some of the great sights that I often rush by. It was also interesting exploring the pedways under the city. I would recommend this tour and will try other tours offered by Chicago Detours.
