Great way to know more about Chicago's history and walk through the underground paths in the heart of the city.
This tour explores some of the best hidden details, secret buildings and spaces, and untold stories that add wonderful bits of color and texture to the overall narrative of Chicago. On this tour, we will explore the famous and mysterious Chicago Pedway, a system of underground tunnels connecting 40 blocks downtown, popping in and out of buildings to see beautiful and fascinating interior spaces. You'll learn to use this system that most locals don't even fully know or use, and you'll be encouraged to continue exploring Chicago on your own after the tour!
Departure Point
- We will meet in front of 120 N. LaSalle Street. There is a massive mosaic over the entrance -- you can't miss it!
- This tour will end just north of Millennium Park.
