Chicago Tours

Discover Chicago's Neighborhoods, Food, Culture and History via the L System

We Explore Chicago's Neighborhoods

At L Stop Tours, we believe you haven’t seen Chicago until you’ve seen the neighborhoods — and what better way to get there than by elevated train! From our tours of historic areas such as the Chicago Prairie District to the colorful street murals and delicious cuisine available on our Pilsen neighborhood adventure, L Stop offers experiences that are perfect for both tourists and locals.

Our tours are fun, engaging and provide a perspective of the city that you won’t get from other Chicago tours. We ride the train to diverse neighborhoods and explore interesting sites in the vicinity of L stops.

Our Chicago train and walking tours are a different way for friends and family to see the very best of our beautiful city. L Stop Tours has been called one of the most unique Chicago neighborhood tours in the city by Choose Chicago!

I can't believe how much our guide, Tom, knew about Chicago! Because he’s lived there his entire life, he also told stories and shared personal experiences that made it fun and interesting.”

Tour Chicago like William Hayes!

What I really like about L Stop Tours is that you get to see many different neighborhoods. Outside the loop, we explored the West Loop and two different sections of Pilsen, which all felt totally different and unique.”
