Event Overview

Do something different to celebrate the holidays in Chicago with our new holiday bar crawl with dinner! Offered only on the evening of Friday, December 7, our holiday bar crawl starts in the hubbub of downtown adventures by luxury coach into the winter wonderland of Chicago neighborhoods. We will explore the neighborhoods of Avondale, Irving Park, and Albany Park, where the tinsel sparkles like a cool pour of Old Style. You’ll visit two dive bars and a homey ’70s joint for pizza and beer. Swedish spiced wine (glogg) is your dessert.

While on the bus, tour guide Amanda will share some basic background on these Chicago neighborhoods as well as the stories behind each locale on your holiday bar crawl. To inspire careful observation of the unique character of our stops, we will play a visual scavenger hunt. Guests will have teams and there will be prizes!

We have tested and scoped out an excellent mix of stops. Your group will visit an 80-year-old dive bar, a historic pizza institution, and a neighborhood bar totally decked out with wintery decorations. The charming decor of each locale makes them particularly worthy of holiday selfies. We’ll even have a contest for the most ridiculous selfie.

Our Philosophy

We believe that the primary role of a tour guide is to educate, so we create an interactive group dynamic and share educational tools and new perspectives for you to connect with the architecture of Chicago.

We are committed to responsible travel, so our tour company uses green practices and immerse you in a truly local experience.

We know that history is best told with a creative approach, so we use different media, like historic quotes, old photographs, and documentary film clips, to stimulate your imagination and present various perspectives.

We believe that a city like Chicago is more than “highlights,” so we share forgotten stories about both famous city landmarks and lesser-known attractions.

We understand that business is about building community, so our tour company likes to connect with tour operators, conventions, destination management companies, non-profits, community groups, senior groups, universities, cultural organizations, and Chicago businesses.

We treat all our tour guests like a new friend, because we believe in the importance of hospitality, and we love when tour guests have chosen to tour Chicago with a small business.
