By the time of the 1893 World's Fair, downtown Chicago was expanding rapidly with major hotels and a large retail shopping district, metal frame office towers, buildings to house the arts, and cable cars and elevated trains. On this one and a half hour walking tour, you will learn how Chicago developed into a world class city. You will see historic buildings from 1893, and learn about the business leaders and architects who "built" Chicago. You will also get to taste food that first made its appearance at the world's fair and is still popular today. Did you know that all beef hot dogs started in Chicago in 1893? Or that sweet treats like Cracker Jack, brownies, and Wrigley Spearmint and Juicy Fruit gum began here? Join us on this fun "see and taste" walking tour.
This tour includes a full-sized hot dog, caramel corn, and brownie that can be eaten along the way or taken home with you. Beverages are not included, but you may bring your own on the tour. Please note that open beverage containers may not be allowed on all tour stops.
