Austin was a great story teller. They made the gruesome history entertaining and I learned quite a bit.

Did not find very informative or entertaining. Our guide was nice but didn’t feel like a good experience like other tours I’ve done. Nothing specifically bad but just not good.

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.

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!

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

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!

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

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!
