Ben was an awesome storyteller, and this was my 4th tour with USA VIP TOURS during the trip. All were super great! But this one truly brought the history to life. I would say this is a must if it’s your first time visiting the Chicago.

Our tour guide William was knowledgeable, fun and kept us fully engaged the entire time! We learned about the city and its spookiness, and the rise and fall of Al Capone. We really felt like we time-traveled to the past when listening to the stories. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience.

Absolutely recommend doing this if you’re in Chicago. We had the best time exploring the city and listening to its infamous history. Good stops with interesting points. Our guide Roman was very enthusiastic and entertaining, he shared so many facts about the prohibition era, gangster life and Chicago disasters with us. Thank you! We will recommend this tour to all of our friends and family.
