Despite the cold weather, our docent provided a fascinating tour of modern architecture in the Loop. He was knowledgeable and entertaining, so we hardly felt the cold at all! Great choice.
A great tour, at a reasonable price. Our guide, Ollie, was very knowledgeable, fun and interesting.
I ended being the only person who booked on this windy, rainy day. Had a wonderful private tour with docent Joseph. He was interesting, funny and informative and I loved the tour!
Well organised tour with a highly knowledgeable and informative guide
