This tour was actually two, two hour tours, combined into one. You visit the north and south sides of Chicago. The tour itself was good and the tour driver was excellent. The second half of the tour was a tad boring. However, it is a good overview of Chicago. Especially, like me, if you have never been there before.

Very informative. Best way to get an overall view of the city.

Enjoyed the North side tour better than the South side....seems to be some repetition...but very worthwhile...

Kind of long

When booking my tour I was not informed that pick-up for the tour could not be done from my Hotel! We were in Chicago only for a short time and even if we rented a car, we could not have seen everything that we saw on this tour. On a scale of 1 to 5 I would give it a 4! Our only issues with the tour was first, we had a lot of trouble understanding what our driver was saying, second an unscheduled stop during the tour to change buses, additional stops for pick-ups. Other than that we enjoyed the tour and would recommend it to other travelers sight seeing in Chicago
