Chicago fun - Colin was extremely pleasant and knowledgeable. It ended up being only my husband on the tour and had the best time. He answered all of our questions and we could tell how much he loves the city.

Go see Colin! - Colin is magnificent! He helps one see Chicago in a way even the locals don’t. I say this because we used to live in Chicago and had no idea how many beautiful spaces there are. Colin knows his stuff, adds visuals to enhance the history and delivers his information with grace. Go see Colin!

Walking with Colin was great! - Colin was informative, clever, fun and great with our group. We enjoyed seeing parts of the city we never would’ve navigated on our own. Our favorite was the subway area and of course the cultural center.

fun tour of downtown Chicago buildings and sites - My husband and I went on this walking tour and loved it. Colin was engaging and had so many fun facts about the buildings and history that we explored. I loved his humor and insight and was amazed by all that we were able to see in such a short time. He also had great recommendations and it was a great way to start our trip.

Nice tour, but cold and wet. - Nicely informed and enjoyable. Lots of architecture focus but also historical elements. The only bad thing was the weather!
