Lara did a great job storytelling! The tour was fascinating until the air grew cold and we learned things that were supposed to stay buried, just like the bodies below us. She kept us hauntingly captivated!
Michelle_S, Oct 2025
Laura was great - loved the history and ghost stories! At 2.5 hours the walking and bar visits were easy to navigate. My only recommendation would be to ask the bars to give our group special access to order our drinks.
Tammy_B, Oct 2025
Bobby Thomas was our guide. Although new to Chicago, he was very knowledgeable in history. We enjoyed hearing the stories, and the drinks along the way were a fun bonus. We all enjoyed each other’s company so much that we went to eat together afterward, including our guide! Highly recommend!

Such a fun evening with great stories and yummy drinks. We enjoyed it so much! Katie is a wonderful storyteller. Knowledgeable and funny. We’re planning to visit the bars we stopped by again!
Sarah_P, Jul 2025
Seemed unorganized and the guide didn’t seem excited to tour. We left early because it seemed just like a bar-hop and not an informative walking tour. We wanted fun, engaging, and lively and both the guide and the other guests looked and seemed bored. We left early so we could bar-hop on our own.
Grace_B, Jul 2025
Katie led a fun and informative tour in the Lincoln Park neighborhood! We visited three bars and several additional landmarks. I highly recommend this for tourists and locals alike!
Dannielle_T, Jun 2025

Great walk around a beautiful town with some interesting stories. The guide was very entertaining and expressive when telling them. Seeing the sights where these events hppend made it all the more exciting. The bars were interesting, and who doesn't love booze?
