Q&A

Q: Is there a minimum age requirement for the Downtown Chicago Walking Pizza Tour?

A: There's no strict age limit, but they recommend it for ages 12 and up since some of the pizza styles might be a bit adventurous for younger kids. If you have younger ones, just keep in mind that there's a lot of walking and tasting involved, so it might be best for the older crowd. Plus, they often cater to families, so you should be good!

Q: Can you reschedule if something comes up?

A: Yes! They’re pretty flexible with rescheduling. Just give them a heads-up at least 48 hours before your tour. They want everyone to have a great experience, so it's not a huge deal to move your date if something comes up. Definitely check the policy on their site for details.

Q: What should I wear for the pizza tour? Is it mostly walking?

A: Definitely wear comfortable shoes since you’ll be walking quite a bit! It’s a casual tour, so dress for the weather but keep it comfy. Layers are a good idea since you might get warm while walking and then cooler when you're stopping to eat. Just be ready to indulge in some serious pizza goodness!

Thinking of gifting the Downtown Chicago Walking Pizza Tour!

I’m looking into this pizza tour for my sister’s birthday. She loves pizza and exploring the city! I've heard they take you through some great neighborhoods like Gold Coast and River North. I’m curious how much pizza we actually get to taste—do they really let you sample a lot? Also, any tips for first-timers?

Just did the Chicago Pizza Tour—so worth it!

I went on the Downtown Chicago Walking Pizza Tour last weekend and it was incredible! We tried deep dish, Neapolitan, and even some artisanal styles. The guides are super knowledgeable, and they really make the history of pizza interesting. We started near Navy Pier and meandered through some beautiful neighborhoods. Just a heads up, come hungry—you'll want to eat all the slices!
