21 women in Chicago for 5 days - just imagine! As much as I'd like to keep Chicago Private Tours our own secret it really wouldn't be fair - these people knock themselves out to provide outstanding experiences for all of their clients. We were treated like royalty and given the insider track on all kinds of things. Baseball Trivia,... More

This tour was excellent. Both driver and guide, Matthew and Mike were a wealth of knowledge and extremely obliging. All specific requests were catered for and everything time we wanted to stop for a photo, they were more than happy to do so. The car was great for viewing skyscrapers with its large sunroof as well being extremely comfortable. This... More

Tour guide Ben and driver Matthew were terrific, and more than willing to go off the beaten path to help us locate sites that were significant in our family's history. Both are extremely knowledgeable native sons who seem to love their city and enjoy their jobs. The van was gorgeous, spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The full cooler of water... More

I was visiting Chicago for the first (definitely not the last) time with my wife on business and only had a day and a half to get a feel for the city. Our guide Ben and driver P.J. gave us a personalized and enjoyable overview of the city and it's many attractions. I would certainly recommend this company. I was... More

The only thing wrong with our tour was that we did it on our LAST day in Chicago. The tour was perfect for us; covered history, interesting side-bars to facts, neighborhoods, architecture, art, music... you name, our guides knew something about everything. Kudos to your staff! More

My husband and I recently returned from a short stay in Chicago to celebrate my birthday, and one of the highlights of our trip was the four hour tour we spent with Chicago Private Tours. Tyrone was our driver, and George was our guide. They took us from the north end to the University of Chicago in the south end... More

After reading other reviews about Chicago Private Tours - my husband and I decided it was the only way to tour the "Windy City". We were only in Chicago for three days, so it was very important that we make the most of our time. We scheduled a City Tour on our last day and also booked an airport transfer... More

We had just a few hours to tour Chicago. I lucked upon this tour company. On very short notice they had a driver and guide at our hotel and off we went. The driver, Matthew, and guide, Ben, were very knowledgeable. We even threw them a few curve ball questions. They were able to get us the answers. All-in-all, it... More

My friends and I booked with Chicago Private Tours while visiting in March 2012. Martin was our guide and Matthew was our driver. Both of them were so nice and helpful. Martin was very knowledgable of the city and stayed on point the entire tour. Matthew provided exceptional service and also allowed us to stop for pictures and coffee. The... More
