Go see Colin!

Colin is magnificent! He helps one see Chicago in a way even the locals don’t. I say this because we used to live in Chicago and had no idea how many beautiful spaces there are. Colin knows his stuff, adds visuals to enhance the history and delivers his information with grace. Go see Colin!

Walking with Colin was great!

Colin was informative, clever, fun and great with our group. We enjoyed seeing parts of the city we never would’ve navigated on our own. Our favorite was the subway area and of course the cultural center.

Colin was amazing. We...
