Free Chicago Walking Tours launched in 2016 by Jeff Mikos. Jeff and his wife were exposed to the free walking tour model after having spent 7 months in South America in 2015. This is a way for Jeff to bring back something he loved from their travels and make Chicago tours affordable no matter what your budget is.

Free Chicago Walking Tours is the most affordable way to see Chicago. Tours run 7-days a week and cover the Loop, Millennium Park, Magnificent, the Chicago River & Lincoln Park. Visit us online to check the schedule and reserve your spot.
Chicago, April 19, 2016 – Free Chicago Walking Tours is hitting the streets of Chicago this summer with 2-hr free walking tours of Chicago. Available 7-days a week, the tours cover Chicago’s most iconic neighborhoods, buildings and parks including tours of The Loops, the Chicago River, Lincoln Park, Magnificent Mile and Millennium Park.
The tours promise their guests they will meet people, learn and have fun. “The interaction of our guests is really important,” said Jeff Mikos, founder of Free Chicago Walking Tours, “so we make sure the entire group introduces themselves to start the tours.”
Chicago is expensive for visitors. According to TripAdvisor’s TripIndex™ Cities¹ index it will cost the average couple more than $93 a day for tours in Chicago. “Our model allows anyone, on any budget, to enjoy Chicago,” said Jeff, “and it’s the best way to get a feel for the city when you first arrive.” Guides work for their guests. If a guest believed the guide did an excellent job they can show their appreciation by leaving a tip.
Free Chicago Walking Tours writes a blog as well that delivers useful and concise information to help visitors plan an unforgettable trip to Chicago.
Because the tours are free they fill up fast. Guests can view the latest schedule at www.freechicagowalkingtours.com/ and reserve their spot today using their online reservation system.
