Q&A

Q: Is there a minimum age requirement for the Private Frida and Friends Tour?

A: There's no strict age limit for the tour, but it's more suitable for teens and adults who can walk and appreciate art. Kids might enjoy it, especially with the food stops, but keep in mind the focus is on art and culture. If you're bringing younger children, maybe consider talking to the guide first to see if it's a good fit!

Q: What should we wear for the walking tour? Is it casual?

A: Casual is definitely the way to go! You’ll want comfy shoes since there’s a lot of walking. Weather can be unpredictable in Chicago, so check the forecast and dress in layers. A light jacket is a good idea if you're going in the fall! Don't forget sunscreen if it's sunny.

Q: What happens if it rains? Can we reschedule the tour?

A: If the weather doesn't cooperate, you can definitely reschedule! They’re pretty flexible about that. Just reach out to them as soon as you know. Pilsen is still fun in the rain, but you might want to prioritize indoor stops like the bakery and studios.
