Ty was super knowledgeable and super friendly. This tour is a MUST for anyone interested in architecture, history, or just anyone who appreciates beautiful spaces. Would recommend this to everyone. I cannot stop talking about it.

As a Chicagoan, I can't believe what I've missed seeing simply because I just hadn't looked inside buildings that I've seen before. This tour opened my eyes to the remarkable architectural masterpieces we are lucky to have in our city. You really are missing the best parts if you don't go inside.

The tour guide was very patient and kind with the children. The pace was great, and the buildings we visited were amazing. It would have been nice to have seen the stairs in the Rookery from above, but I understand it is not possible.

Conner provided an excellent overview of the secret interiors, adding lots of anecdotes that made the buildings come alive for us. He had good and safe crowd control, too!

This was a fabulous and informative tour. Got to see some jaw dropping interiors that I never would have seen on my own.
Helena_O, Apr 2024
Tour guide was great. The guide was very informative and very knowledgeable. He was able to answer any questions that the group had.
What I loved most about the tour was that we were taken inside places in the city we would never have known about or known we were allowed to go into, so it was a real treat.
Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is visiting Chicago.

Connor is very knowledgeable. It was great to see interiors of buildings we have only seen from the outside. He shared history and architectural facts.

Good to see the hidden treasures that you would not typically find on your own. Good combination of architecture and history of the city.
Definitely recommend the tour if you have two hours.
Great tour to take when hot or cold outside as one gets to be indoors.
Conor did a great job. Super informative and very friendly.

The tour guide, Conor, was great. He provided personal attention and knowledge of the tour material. The big reveal at every building was as advertised.

Lucky Chicago residents that get to live and work amongst such beauty every day! Our guide Conor explained the popular motifs used in local architecture and wowed us with amazing mosaics, art deco masterpieces, and design features that make Chicago architecture unique. Conor’s stories—flaming blimps! Frank Lloyd Wright drama!—added wonderful color to the tour. Wear comfy shoes and appropriate clothes as you’ll be walking between the sites. HIGHLY recommend!
