Great food, great guide, great time! - Jeff was awesome! He was very kind, fun and knowledgable. I was the only solo traveller in our group and he made sure I didn't feel excluded every step of the way. (He didn't have to worry, my group was very sociable and there was plenty of mingling.) The food was great and varied, I probably ate more than I do during my average dinner. If you're thinking of taking this tour, do it! It's a great time and well worth it

Great Chicago Chinatown Experience - Our family of four just finished the Chinatown Food and Walking Tour with our tour guide, Jeff. There was another family of five with us and the tour was excellent. Jeff was an amazing tour guide, providing the right amount of interesting information and humor. We ate at four restaurants as well as a bakery and all of the food was very tasty. It was a wonderful way to spend a few hours exploring Chinatown with good company and good food. Highly recommend and thanks to Jeff for making it a very pleasurable experience.

Great experience! - We visited from out of town. York was our tour guide. He’s unbelievably good. 5 different food stops including dessert. We would never had known where to go if we hadn’t done this tour. Gave us a great feel for Chinatown!!
