Jack was fabulous! He knew his stuff! And was thoroughly entertaining as well. Saw so much of the city that I was not able to see any other way.

It was great. Went around 4 times 1st day, getting off and on including night tour. Great guides and drivers. Came back next day, defiantly worth our money. Loved Vance.

We have done a few Big Bus tours but it was good to have a tour guide on this one rather than the audio commentary. He was enthusiastic, welcoming us to the bus and finding out where we had visited from. This gave the tour a friendly feel. We found out a lot about the main areas in the city and extra snips of information too. The only downside was the wait for some of the buses at a few of the stops (as it was very cold). It would be good to have a tracker on the app so you could locate the next bus to srrive (as the CTA buses have).

A great way to go around the city and see what it has to offer so you can go back later or another day if you don't have time on the day.

FABULOUS! Well worth money. Tour guides and drivers excellent, especially Wanda. Chicago is a beautiful city and there is no better way to see it than through this hop on bus company.
We had a fabulous time.

We loved riding the big bus. Ms. B was our guide and she did an excellent job. The tour was very informative. Ms. B was very friendly and has a great sense of humor. We will definitely use this service again.
