Great tour! So much history and crime about Chicago. I was born and raised in Chicago and it made me want to do more research about Chicago… The Guide was excellent! The pizza at the end was a nice touch!

If you're a true crime enthusiast, Jamie's Crime Bus Tour is an absolute must! Our guide, Jamie, was nothing short of sensational – she mixed humor with her extensive knowledge, making each story more engaging than the last. Her energy and passion for the subject matter were palpable, breathing life into every historical crime scene we visited. Not only did she provide fascinating insights, but her witty commentary kept us entertained throughout. It's rare to find such a well-rounded tour that educates and amuses in equal measure. I left the tour with a deeper understanding of the city's darker past, all thanks to Jamie's exceptional guiding skills. Highly recommended!
