Description

Good to Know

This tour is just a short walk through great Chicago neighborhoods starting near Navy Pier and the Magnificent Mile, and then heading into the Gold Coast & River North. Compare two American pizzas vs. two Italian pizzas to understand how pizza evolved as an immigrant food. Explore Deep Dish, Roman, Neapolitan, and Artisanal pizza in just a couple of hours. Discuss how each of these styles is crafted and the differences in their ingredients, baking techniques, and ovens. Plenty of pizza to eat, come hungry!

Do this tour!

My son and I had an absolutely fantastic afternoon on this tour. Our guide, James, was friendly and very informative- he knows his pizza stuff! At each stop you sit at restaurant table as a group and an unexpected bonus was getting to meet and chat with the other tour participants. There was plenty of pizza for everyone (not just samples) and my son (college student) even got to take home leftovers! I also learned that the tour stops vary so even if you have done the tour before you can go again...read more

Funny guide and really great food. Guide was very knowledgeable on local history. More than worth the price.
