FOR THE HOMETOWN FOLKS WE MAKE HISTORY FUN !

Chicago Kenny Tours and Road Trips

See the sights from a different angle!

When I mention the word tours people automatically assume architecture and sightseeing – your typical bus tour.  We do something a little different.  A storytelling tour where the sights help bring the stories to life. 

So in essence we talk about the saints and the sinners and a few that straddled the fence. I tell stories about a crime fighter named Gold Tooth Mary, and a colorful business tycoon who named all three of our airports. A lifelong gangster who rose to the top of the ranks, but made his daughter promise to invite none of his fellow gangsters to his funeral.

Why send your guests on a tour when you can give them a truly memorable Chicago Kenny experience.

Our goal is to have your visitors feel as though the City of Chicago provided them with their own personal ambassador who gave them a behind-the-scenes look at “All Things Chicago.”

Having your guest understand what Chicago is all about is my approach and will be enjoyed by those visiting our city for the first, second or one-hundredth time. 

Perfect for entertaining clients and associates:

VIP clients are typically intelligent and they love to learn. International visitors will hear stories about the contributions and experiences of their countryman in our city.  Of course, we can structure our tour to fit around any additional meetings or recreational activities scheduled for the group.

Adding to the experience is travelling around in style in a luxurious limousine or limousine bus. In fact, our association with H&M Limousine means we can provide transportation at all points. This includes round-trip airport service, rides to meetings and other scheduled recreational activities.

LET US HELP YOU PLAN A FAMILY RE-UNION TOUR

Our Family Re-Union Tours are designed to be a unique and entertaining outing for those whose families’ ties to Chicago extend back three or more generations.  One of my favorite tours because of my passion for telling stories about the immigrants who arrived in Chicago in search of the American Dream.

Once everyone fills me in on the details about their families’ history, I begin telling stories about the Chicago and the neighborhoods their family lived and worked in.

 If your family is part of our cities immigrant past, let’s take a trip down memory lane on a Family Re-Union Tour.

Is Abe Lincoln part of the tour?

Abe Lincoln passed away in 1865; this event was reported in all of the newspapers. He will not be joining us on the tour.

Honest Abe is one of my hero’s. I voted for him and I am honored that one of our nation’s most recognizable Lincoln actors, Michael Krebs has helped to convey the personality and in-depth historical nature of our tours and events.

If your group, association or school would be interested in booking Abe Lincoln for your next event, please feel free to link to his web-site. His wife Mary will handle the security arrangements. http://www.abrahamlincolnperformance.com/
