Fun for teens and adults!

Published on Dec, 2024

The Gangster mini bus tour was great! Matthew, our tour guide had amazing stories and was so entertaining! We took the 6 pm ride. So glad we did the bus. Would have been quite cold to walk. He allowed for a few stops off the bus with a great photo spot for the city lights. Was the perfect night activity for teens and adults! Lots of Chicago history included.

It was a very informative tour and Ty was a great tour guide! Enjoyed all the stories and would definitely recommend checking it out!

Go for the bus!

Published on Nov, 2024

The bus was incredibly clean and quiet. It was the way to go for sure. My husband and I had been ‘pounding’ the pavement and enjoyed the break. Our guide was very knowledgeable and the bus driver was so nice.
