The last half of the tour the guide spent more time talking to the driver than talking with the gursts.

Good value for money. I had very limited time in Chicago and the tour covered a good portion of Chicago for sure!

Review by: Rodrigo R	March 2012

Review by: Kathleen M	November 2011
This became one of my main forms of tra.nsportation. The first day I did the tour non stop to see where I wanted to go the next day. The guides were terrific, funny and very informative. I learned alot about the city.

Review by: Jennifer K	November 2011
This is a great an inexpensive way to see the city. We just wish that it ran later in the evenings so that we could see the sights at night, too.

THIS WAS MONEY WELL SPENT . A VERY INFORMATIVE AND ENTERTAINING TOUR . WE FIRST WENT ALL THE WAY ROUND TO GET SOME IDEAS , AND THEN HOPPED ON AND OFF FOR THE REST OF THE DAY

Review by: Susan S	October 2011
We came in on Metra. Short walk to the trolley bus and everything went exactly as planned. Only problem is the wait time at the stops.

Review by: Jill T	October 2011
Hop on hop off tour is usually the best way to get around and learn about a city. I did not find that with the Chicago tour. Every stop had nothing interesting and each stop took 10-20mins, even after we loaded. We never even had time to complete a full circuit, due to the amount of time it took at each stop.

Review by: Peter H	October 2011
What a way to see Chicago. And to buy your passes through Viator means a simple exchange on board the bus

Review by: Dale W	September 2011
Awesome! Best way to get in lots of sights when you are on limited time. Absolutely will use Viator again, got tickets thru them when everyone else was "out"

Review by: Judy	September 2011
The tour was worth the money, but our guide on the top level of the bus, was over the top! He was like a stand-up comic, which took away from the tour and the scenery.

Review by: Diane C	September 2011
Hop-on-Hop-off tour was good. I have used this type of bus tour in other citys.The tour guides where most helpful. Would do it again.

Review by: Lonnie G T	September 2011

Review by: Jennifer Y	September 2011
Great! The bus was easy to get on/off. Always had seats up top available. Hit all the major sites of Chicago. Great guides!

Review by: Robert E	August 2011
Great trip Highly recommend

Review by: Nolana S	August 2011
Great way to see the city. Recommended to purchase the three day pass. There is no way you can see Chicago in one day!

Review by: Deborah S	August 2011
Interesting, easy to use, lots of buses to hop on-hop off. friendly staff and good service when booked online.

Review by: yvonne o	August 2011
AMAZING!!! We had my mother wilth us and she is in a wheelchair. The staff was so helpful and we learned so much about Chicago from the great tour guides. Would highly recommend it. We did the 3 day hop on hop off.

Review by: Ron N	August 2011
We would recommend this tour to all visitors to Chicago. The information we received from each of our guides onboard during our three day access was amazing and made our visit to Chicago so much more enjoyable.

Review by: robert k	August 2011
the bus was great, but you should put on an extra 2 or 3 buses in the afternoon.

Review by: JEAN B	August 2011
Suggestion to start the bus and complete one whole trip and then decide on the best things for your own enjoyment. The commentators do know their work. We sat downstairs and still enjoyed the ride.

Review by: Maxime N	August 2011
Good price for 4 complete tours in the summer.

Review by: William P	August 2011
Of all the tours over my 21 years in the area I found the Chicago City Hop-on Hop off Tour the best. Both my 18 year old grandaughters and neice form Okalhoma had a time of their lives. IThe bus upper deck was superb and the tour guides entertaining and very informative. Next opportunity I will do it again. Thanks for the tour!

Review by: Latifah M	August 2011
I loved Chicago. The Hop-on Hop-off pass helped me see it like I couldn't possibly have by taken public transportation or various tours at a higher price. I love Viator as well!

Review by: Joyce M R	July 2011
We had an excellent host on the bus and enjoyed learning about the history of Chicago.

Review by: Kim C	July 2011
Great tour! Highly recommended! Guides are friendly and knowledgeable. Possible to cover the entire city in one day and still be able to hop off and visit places of interest. Make sure to stop at Navy Pier and take a boat tour. It's spectacular!

Review by: Ian K	July 2011
excellent

Review by: TARENCE D	July 2011
My 1st trip ever to the Windy City and I must admit --The best way to see Chicago hands down! The tour guides were well informed and entertaining. The 3-day pass was well worth the $$. Park at soldier field -- it's cheaper!!

Review by: Lisa D	July 2011
We had a wonderful time!! Everyone was very helpful and the narrarators on the buses were very informative and funny. The breeze on the top of the double decker bus was an added bonus on the hot days. Thank you for adding to our trip to Chicago, we had a great time!!

Review by: Dianne C	July 2011
We went on tour during the Taste of Chicago weekend and absolutely loved it because the tour guide was entertaining! Would recommend to any and everyone.

Review by: Stephen C	July 2011
guides were informative

Review by: shirley c	July 2011
Excellent tour. Overlapped a lot on content knowledge with the boat tour (which we went on first) All of the tour leaders had the same "funny" comments and information. It was great once but not repeatedly. Our first tour guide was much easier to understand than the second. overall worthwhile.

Review by: William T	July 2011
i enjoyed my trip to Chicago, unfortunately, it was very hot on those days and it was difficult to feel comfortable on top of the bus. We had different types of buses one with no top and one with. Another problem we had was how we get our ticket book, that was not really clear on the information that we received or where the bus stop was we had to guess. But the drivers and guides were very good and the commentary was excellenet.

Review by: Krystin E, United States of America	July 2010
The guides were lively and funny, and they hit all the big things to see. A great and rewarding experience!

Review by: Barbara M, Canada	July 2010
This is the best way to see a big city when you don't have much time. The price was right, the tour guides were very informative and the buses came very frequently so there was very little time waiting around to get back on. Fantastic!

Review by: Dorothy M, United Kingdom	July 2010
This is a perfect way of getting to know the city which is fantastic

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	June 2010
There is no better way to tour the city. My husband is from the area and agrees this is the only way to go. John was the best guide we had for the day.

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	June 2010
Worth every minute! Both the Trolley and the Double Decker Bus were great. We used it to get all around town!

Review by: Luis M, Spain	April 2010
Fantastic tour for a first time visitor of Chicago. Funny and entertaining, you can view all important buildings in Chicago and take all the pictures you want. Our host was very very nice and full of funny anecdotes and practical information. It was worth every penny!

Review by: Zachary W, United States of America	April 2010
Our guide was outstanding! I have toured a lot of cities in the US and abroad, and he was by far the best. I had a group of 32, and the majority were elderly people, and he was patient for them to get on and off and be seated safely. We all had a great tour!

Review by: Sharon R, Australia	March 2010
We loved it but regret not getting it for the two days. There was not enough time to see everything after you have got off the bus a few times. But would definitely recommend it to everyone.

Review by: Frank J, United States of America	February 2010
The Driver / Tour Director knew the layout, local offerings and the local flavor of things, Great Trip!

Review by: Carlos R, Puerto Rico	January 2010
We loved the tour and the tour guides were very friendly and helpful. A must do if you visit Chicago.

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	December 2009
Not only was this a fun trip but we learned so much about Chicago from the different tour guides! My two boys, 16 and 11 enjoyed it as much as my husband, mother-in-law and I!

Review by: Peggy W, United States of America	October 2009
Love it all. Love Chicago. I want to come back when we have more time. I did get cold. But it was ok.

Review by: Mary L, United Kingdom	September 2009
The tour buses were excellent! The guides were very well informed and knowledgeable and it was interesting that each guide had a different take on the city some highlighting on food and eating, with others informing you of the history of the city or the arts. Overall value for money.
