I am an enthusiastic guide to the beautiful, fun, architecturally and historically significant city of Chicago. I love sharing my favorite City and meeting visitors. Finding out why you are visiting, seeing all that is unique about Chicago through your eyes makes this a great experience for me, too! I especially enjoy tailoring tours to your interests. Whether on foot, using public transportation, driving in my vehicle (van available for up to 6) or on your bus/vehicle, I will make sure you fall in love with this great city. I have lived in or near Chicago for most of my life. My perspective is enhanced by my degree in Urban Planning, time spent living in other cities and my passion for travel. I have experienced Chicago while single, as part of a couple, with my family of five and now as a couple again as we moved back into the City as empty nesters. I thoroughly enjoy exploring the many facets of Chicago, am comfortable navigating the city and enjoy showing it off. I take great pleasure in sharing any and all information at my finger tips to assure everyone maximizes all Chicago has to offer during their entire stay. You will get a copy of Nancy's Notes to enhance your time here. And I will take your pictures so your entire group is in the picture. If you are seeking someone who is dependable, fun, an excellent communicator and is ready to tailor your tour of Chicago to your needs and appetites - you have found her here.

Overview of your Chicago tour

This tour is a perfect way to begin your visit to Chicago. We will walk the amazing Millennium Park- opened in 2004 and a popular tourist destination. The Park is a truly spectacular centrally located space providing accessible gardens, art and City views. I offer lifelong experience in Chicago and look forward to sharing standard tourist icons and off the beaten path adventure. Our time together will see plenty of sights and include ideas and connections to help you enjoy your entire stay in this great city.

Nancy was great. We were able to social distance, with masks on, without a problem. I learned so much and thoroughly enjoyed the tour.

Your Chicago tour itinerary

This tour stays in a four block area comprising Millennium Park as several icons of Chicago are visible from the Park. The central location allows us to see the 5 tallest buildings in our city. I will also point out access to many other Chicago options including the loop/business district for shopping & historic buildings, the elevated train (the El)system, cultural icons including the Art Institute/Museum Campus, and the Riverwalk and Lakefront.
