Awesome West side Foodies tour

Gabe was our guide. He was knowledgeable, fun and kept us safe while we rode through many areas of the city. My personal favorite snack was the Ukrainian dumplings, known as varenyky. If I find myself in Chicago again, I will take another tour with Bobby's (hopefully with Gabe if he is available.)

This was a great way to...

This was a great way to see the city, have some tasty bites, and get a little light cardio in for the day. I’ve been to Chicago many times and hardly ever leave the loop so it was great to see the neighborhoods. Wyatt was a great tour guide and had fun facts plus music trivia, as well as the info about the food we were eating. For a four hour guided tour, bike rental, and what amounted to a full four course lunch, this was reasonably priced.
