Overview

This is not a bus tour, 90% of our tours are 11 people or less, as we specialize in small, personalized group tours. This gives us the space and time to take pictures and have great conversation! The personal, small tour approach allows travelers to have a personal tour experience of the city. With our small tour there are opportunities for questions and non-scripted conversations. A true experience. We have additional tours that accommodate large groups but this tour is geared towards sights and fluid conversations about the black starts of Chicago! The guide will take photos for you while educating you on the city and it's historical residents.

On the Chicago Soul House tour, travelers tour the South Side of Chicago and can see the homes of the city's stars. The antidotes and stories are being told by someone who sang at the same lounges as Jennifer Hudson, played with Muhammad Ali as a child and traveled to Chicago during the Great Black Migration.
