Art Deco Architecture Walking Tour September 6, 2013Seeing the buildings and Art Deco aspects were good, but we ended up with a very mediocre docent, who dragged out the tour an extra 20 minutes with information that was, at best, peripheral to the actual tour. She read off of notes (literally read them to us) and when asked where the term Art Deco came from, she had no idea.

Art Deco Architecture Walking Tour July 28, 2013I have always loved Art Deco, so this tour was just what I wanted. The guide was very informative and well versed in the elements of art deco. The length of the tour was just right.

Art Deco Architecture Walking Tour July 26, 2013Wonderful tour, with a charming and knowledgeable guide. Definitely worth the money, but do book in advance!

Modern Architecture Walking Tour July 18, 2013This tour was organized through the Chicago Architecture Foundation and the guides are volunteers so some are better than others. We found it extremely interesting but you would need an interest in architecture to enjoy this tour.

Modern Architecture Walking Tour July 4, 2013A must do! While we had admired many of the buildings we saw on the tour having the history of the Art Deco movement and the buildings explained was worth the cost. The tour guides are passionate about their subjects.

Modern Architecture Walking Tour June 29, 2013Being a native, I've seen all of these building before. I think anyone from out of town would be more impressed. Due to logistics, we weren't able to get close to these buildings, and there was quite a bit of repetition between the historic skyscraper tour and this one.

Art Deco Architecture Walking Tour June 22, 2013What a great way to see Chicago and learn about a creative time in architecture. Informative guide and the tour was well paced to see a lot. The listening devices helped greatly. No piece of information was lost. Highly recommend this short 2 hour walk around Chicago.

Tiffany Art Glass Landmarks Walking Tour October 13, 2012It was a wonderful tour, the guide was fabulous, and I have been busy sharing all that i learned. I have recommended it to others visiting Chicago and some others who live in the Windy City.
Thanks for a great tour -

Tiffany Art Glass Landmarks Walking Tour July 20, 2012This was an excellent tour, conducted by a knowledgable and friendly guide. I also did two other tours with the Chicago Architecture Foundation and would recommend them too. It's a great way to learn something about the character of a city that you'd never learn otherwise. I recommend very comfortable walking shoes and sun protection.
