Just as promised. Highlights of the Art Institute of Chicago. Raquel was a lovely, knowledgeable tour guide. We really appreciated her enthusiasm. I appreciated the small group experience as well.

We felt this was the best way to visit the art museum and our tour guide proved it to us. We got to see the best pieces in the museum, heard very interesting background stories on the art work and artists, and our guide even showed related pics on his tablet. Our teen kids, as expected, listened half the time but we were impressed they kept engaged for the whole 2 and a half hour tour. Worth every penny.

Our guide, Heath, was the reason our tour of The Chicago Art Institute was amazing. He not only captured (and held) the interest of our small group, but some of the visitors around us also started following us to gain free insight. Heath is a valuable asset!
