Great Chicago movie sites tour

Dan was a great tour guide. He talked about his experiences as an actors and working on various productions in Chicago. We were shown many different sites where movies were filmed and we heard some of the back stories. He also had screen shots of scenes from different movies as we were walking to these different sites. I would highly recommend

Fun movie tour

The tour guide, Dan, was down to earth and entertaining. He has worked as an extra and stand in on many movies and shows so his personal experience really added to the experience. It was a lot of fun and great to see so many sites.
