The Bear Private Pedicab Food Tour of Chicago
If you want culture, history, food, cinema and film and a heavy dose of all things Chicago this is your tour! Get ready to EAT. We are true fans of Chicago, The Bear and good food which is why we start our tour at the world famous Pequod's pizza where a hot pie will be ready waiting for us to pickup and try. Enjoy this in the pedicab as we begin our leisurely ride through the city getting an open air view of some of Chicago's cutest neighborhoods. Next up we go to Margies Candies for a Banana Split before embarking on a ride all the way from the west side to River North, crossing the Chicago River and getting some photos at the iconic LaSalle Flowers. End your epic Chicago adventure at Mr. Beef or Kasama! Your tour vehicle will be a decorated 6 seat pedicab driven by one of our knowledgeable tour guides. Comfortable for up to 4-5 adults, 6 if kids/teenagers are in the mix. Look at the photos of the cab and feel free to reach out with any questions.

What's included in The Bear Private Pedicab Food Tour of Chicago
(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
The legendary, best "deep dish" pizza in Chicago. It's really a Pan pizza, but your tour comes with one personal-medium pizza depending on group size, I preorder this or it takes truly forever- classic from The Bear is the Pepperoni, if you want something different just let us know.
The most expensive home in Chicago! This is an optional stop on the tour but sometimes depending on where the tour begins, whether at your hotel, at Pequods or a coffee shop nearby, we are able to explore Lincoln Park a bit. Here we can stop by this magnificent home, originally listed for a whopping $50,000,000! sold last year for $30 Million. Right around the corner, the lovely Oz Park featuring statues from The Wizard of Oz.
Episode 3, Season 2 "Sundae" Syd ends an epic food tour of Chicago at Margies Candies, an ice cream parlor that’s been open since 1921, for an iconic banana split. Yes we will be getting a banana split here with many spoons for your party to share! Try to save room because after this you are either going to a Michelin star restaurant (Kasama) or the place where it all began, Mr. Beef!

Additional Information

Meeting Points
- This is the first stop on the tour, and it's a long food tour (your driver will bike over 8miles!) so if you want to meet your tour guide here, and it's convenient for you, it is a great option! If interested, your group can grab a drink at the famous bar inside of Pequod's beforehand.
- This is one of my favorite coffee shops in all of Chicago. Grab a coffee here as our bike shop is around the corner and we can start the tour, but save your appetite!
End Points
- This is some of the best food in Chicago. if you want to end the tour here INSTEAD of Mr. Beef, please coordinate with us beforehand. Most people want to go to the original filming spot for The Bear instead but for the true foodies this is a great option!
- We will end the tour where it all began for Carmy, Mr. Beef. We can also end at the chicago river nearby and you can water taxi wherever you want. Other ending points are fine just communicate beforehand.
