I'm Sylvie S., your private tour guide in Chicago
Guide #47885
Hello! I can't wait to share my deep love of Chicago with you. An actor, photographer, and history buff who has called Chicago home all of my adult life, I revel in sharing stories about the Windy City -- and about the people who built it, made it their home, and left an indelible mark on it. Chicago has it all: a stunning skyline, an incredible shoreline, a vibrant art scene, a bustling theater and film community, and restaurants celebrating food from all corners of the world. Chicagoans love sports, too! Chicago is home to 77 (soon to 78) communities, all with distinct personalities and traits. We can't possibly visit them all at once, but I can certainly entice you so you come back and explore some more! Join me in the "city of big shoulders" for a visit filled with history, anecdotes, and beauty. All my tours can be customized upon request. While you see more than a dozen "set" tours -- also customizable -- , I have developed more than 70 entirely personalized tours for various individuals, couples, or groups, small and large. Just let me know what you are looking for, and I'll create a tour for you!

Chicagoans are not braggers, except in this case. I will brag about you two to...

Billy B.United StatesAugust 2026Sylvie was an absolutely incredible guide! Her knowledge of Chicago is so deep, and she showed us hidden secrets we never would have found on our own. She truly helped us fall in love with the city. This was our anniversary trip, and Sylvie went above and beyond to make it feel extra special. Highly recommend booking with her!
