SOME TESTIMONIALS

Rita

Rita

from Dallas

I've been to Chicago before, but thought it would be fun to have a local guide for once. Therese was just the person. Fun and knowledgeable. We started with a unique and delicious meal in Terese's art filled apartment. This was followed by a tour of the neighborhood art galleries. Terese's passion for art and knowledge of the local art scene was informative and educational. I highly recommended adding this on your Chicago itinerary.
