Meet Private Guide Kevin Doerksen!

With the belief that the best way to discover Chicago is by walking the streets and seeing and meeting locals, he does not normally work on vehicle-based tours. That said, he is well practiced in the vehicle-based tour, and if that is the ultimate desire or need of the client, then it is always a possibility.

Some of the themes for his Chicago tours include history, architecture, ethnic communities, gangster, jazz/blues, and politics. Chicago food – nothing like Chicago deep dish pizza – and Chicago movies make for other favorites to those visiting Chicago for the first time. Basically, Kevin loves Chicago so much that he would be happy to prepare a tour on just about anything relating to his city!

Anyone that visits Chicago can easily walk the streets of Michigan Avenue, visit Millenium Park, and test out a Chicago pizza, but if you want to do all of these and gain a better understanding for the true city of Chicago, then hiring a guide like Kevin should be high on your list.
