We showed up ten minutes early, waiting 15 minutes passed the start time in freezing cold, and never got any updates or messages from the tour guide. They never showed up, and even customerservice couldnt get hold of them, very disappointing as my party was looking forward to this.

I had such a great time...

Alex_R, Nov 2025
I had such a great time walking around the city learning new things! Our tour guide was super knowledgeable and fun!

Good experience

ZOE_G, Sep 2025
Our guide Joe was incredible, he was funny and had all the fun and gory facts about the town. Nevertheless, I felt like we learnt a lot about places we didn’t have time for but a lot less about the places we actually got to go to. Otherwise, the night was really enjoyable and I would still recommend it to anyone!

Great guide good tour

Roberto_D, Jul 2025
Tour guide Joe was great (5 of 5) but the tour itself was a lot of walking compared to information provided.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Night in Chicago

William_B, May 2025
This was a fun tour, something that you can do at night when things slow down. I enjoyed the experience and the interesting facts of what makes this city spooky! Joe was a great guide with a lot of knowledge and a fun personality. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to hear about some of the most infamous incidents in Chicago history!

Not a tour I would recommend

Jay_M, Nov 2022
Unfortunately, the cold weather really put a damper on the tour. IT has hard to hear and follow the tour guide.

James is a GREAT tour guide!

Candice_B, Nov 2022
James is an AWESOME guide! Through his enthusiasm and charm, he made the whole experience even better. It was so nice to have a small group...too often there are so many folks is hard to hear, etc. Thank you for a wonderful tour! We're bringing family back in March and will recommend this to them as well!
