Mi parte favorita fueron las historias.
Nunca había tenido un guía turístico que supiera tanto! Chicago es una ciudad hermosa y este es un tour maravilloso.
Muchas Gracias!
Aprendimos y vimos mucho más de lo que habríamos visto explorando por nuestra cuenta. Él lo hace real y pudimos entrar en lugares brillantes. Muchas Gracias!
It’s the highlight of our trip to Chicago.
We caught the killer and laughed the whole way. Super fun, really great time. I was shy to participate at first, but Andre did a great job making us detectives.
This tour was amazing.
It’s a great way to learn about Chicago in a fun way. The subject matter was incredibly interesting and the sites were captivating. Ask for Andre, as his knowledge and passion for Chicago are evident!
Excellent fun!
I’ve never seen anything like it, it’s the best of a walking tour, and the best of a murder mystery game! We became detectives and played suspects trying to find the killer, who naturally, was my son. It’s a must if you are visiting
