See the cooler side of Chicago and eat the better for it! - The bike and food tour was wonderful. Tryfon the bike guide was knowledgeable, funny, and informative. He was cautious and supportive for all the bikers in the group, young and old. The food stops were excellent, first it was Roma style pizza, then perogies, then tacos, then custard, and finally chocolate. The bike ride through the neighborhoods and views were wonderful. The day was cool and bright, it was a perfect day and tour.

Top Notch Tour - This tour was amazing! There was far more food than I had anticipated, and it was definitely "foodie" worthy. Gabe was such an incredible guide. He had everything down to perfection with keeping us safe and calling ahead to each location so they were ready when we arrived. He handled a challenging situation so professionally, too. We loved this tour so much, we will probably repeat it next summer!

Tasty samplings, educational, exercise - My husband and I really enjoyed this tour. Our guide, Joe, was knowledgeable, and friendly. After a brief safety session, he led us through the city and through a variety of towns. He gave us information about the areas at stoplights and during our meals. Because Joe alerted the restaurants of our arrival, we never waited too long for our meals. We enjoyed the exercise, the tasty samplings of food and learning about the city. Highly recommend!

A Great way to Spend an Afternoon - A great introduction to some wonderful Chicago neighborhoods and food stops carefully curated to highlight local businesses. The food samples were plentiful and tasty. The ride covered a lot of territory in a short time but was well paced. I highly recommend as a way to spend an afternoon whether you are visiting from out of town or a local to Chicago. Our guide Julia was superb- both informative and personable.

This is a great tour - must do - Great time on this food/bike tour. Tryfon was a great guide and made sure everyone was safe throughout the city streets. The food was amazing and was able to discover places that wouldn't have experienced on our own. Highly recommend!

Great food through beautiful historic neighborhoods. - We are residents of the Chicago suburbs and this is a great way to experience neighborhoods we aren’t very familiar with. Joe was a fantastic guide! He’s very knowledgeable about the history of Chicago and its neighborhoods. Food destinations were unique and worthy of coming back to another time !
