Great for tourists and locals!
Great for tourists and locals!
I booked a Good Times Historic Bar tour via Google Offers and was excited about it and the tour did not let me down. It was fun, quirky, and very historic. Learned much more than I anticipated, considering I expected it would be something similar to a pub crawl. It started at the Tribune building which is one of my favorite buildings in Chicago and I learned even more fun and cool (historic) information about it from our tour guide while standing in the building's main lobby (which I have to admit, I've never walked into before).
It's also cool that Amanda (our tour guide) had videos and photos to accompany the tour on iPad, so the multimedia aspect of it makes it more modern and non-traditional (in a good way).
Also unexpected was that drinks and appetizers/small bites were served at each restaurant/bar location. I didn't expect it to be included in the tour, so it was really a nice bonus.
As a local I recommend this tour to Chicago residents because you will learn something new even if you think you're well-versed in Chicago history.
I also recommend this tour to tourists, because it will open you eyes more to Chicago history and architecture through a casual stroll with food and drink pit stops.
