An Absolute Must for Any Chicago Fire/PD Fan! - The Chicago Fire/Chicago PD tour was out of this world! My husband and I are avid watchers of the Chicago shows, so when we found this on “Things to Do in Chicago,” we knew we had to try it. At first, I was a little hesitant about the cost, but let me say — this tour is worth. Every. Penny! Deen picked us up right in front of our hotel and drove us all over the city. We got to see not only filming locations from the shows but also a variety of neighborhoods and hidden gems throughout Chicago. Deen made sure we had the best photo opportunities and set us up with views that were absolutely breathtaking. One of the most exciting moments was getting to step inside the actual firehouse that inspired the set — and it was working and in use! It truly felt like stepping into the show. This was hands-down the highlight of our trip. We’ve already told friends and family that they must do this tour when visiting Chicago. It was the best experience we’ve had and by far the best guide we’ve ever had.

Great Chicago Fire tour - Fantastic tour with Deen. Not only did he show us some of the sites around Chicago that we had not seen before, but also visited Firehouse 51 (and had a tour from a wonderful fire fighter) as well as the Fire Academy and Mollies. Deen spent a lot of time with us and did an amazing job.

Great Chicago Fire tour - Deen did a great job not only showing us the sites of Chicago but also Firehouse 51 (and we got a tour inside), the Fire Academy & Mollies, as well as many other sites used to file Chicago Fire. A great way to spend the morning - thanks Deen.

I fell more in love with Chicago Fire…. - Deen was an awesome tour guide!! He knew the best photo spots and all these little tidbits about Chicago and Chicago Fire. He even personalized our tour by showing us spots we hadn’t visited yet. We (my mom and I) definitely couldn’t have found all of the major filming locations on our own. Highly recommend!!!!

Amazing tour - This is an amazing tour-a must for Chicago Fire fans! Dean is a great tour guide. He showed us several spots where they film the show including Molly's and was able to get us into the firehouse. He also drove us to highlight spots of Chicago for great photos. The tour exceeded our expectations and would highly recommend!

Relaxing and more than expected. - Deen picked us up at our hotel. When we came down, he was cleaning the already very clean van. I enjoyed just sitting back and taking in the scenery while being chauffered to our first stop. Although he had a designed tour, he asked what we have seen already and would alter his plan so we wouldn't have to visit places again. The highlight for me was how the firefighter at Station 51 was excited and willing to show us around. And the view of Willis Tower from the station. If you are a fan of the Chicago shows. This is a must. Thanks, Deen!
