I loved this tour. Kelli is an informative and fun guide to both the movie and the Art Institute. I took some great photos and have some great memories. Also, she has great taste in T-shirts!

This is one of the best tours I’ve ever been on! Some friends and I took the tour of Union Station film history and loved every second of it! I’ll definitely be going on another tour in the future :)

What a fantastic tour of Beneath the Big Screen that my husband and I enjoyed on July 26. We knew some movies were made in Chicago, but not as many that Kelli introduced to our group. Kelli was very detailed as she explained how movies were made — from lighting to how and why various scenes and characters were photographed. Kelli was not only extremely knowledgeable, but also very engaging with our group. We highly recommend this tour. You will not be disappointed!

Kelli's presentation on Batman was very interesting, with film clips and fun facts about how the movie was made in Chicago, the stunts they used, the locations and areas they used, very informative.

Best Mother Daughter Date Ever! Such a fun tour for both my daughter and me. Kelli is extremely knowledgeable about so many facets of Ferris Bueller & The Art Institute. This tour ranked right up there with the Architecture Tour for my soon to be college film student and me. Highly, highly recommend!!

Very much enjoyed our movie tour with Kelli! She's warm, friendly, knowledgeable, and a good herder of cattle 😄 (which you need to be when navigating busy downtown especially with folks who aren't used to the city). I'm a lifelong Chicagoan and learned facts and visited places I've never been. Our out of town guests loved seeing the pretty architecture, the underbelly of the city, and where various films were shot. I loved the interactiveness, from the questions to the complementary media, and the getting our steps in but in a way that was accessible to everyone in the group.

Amazing! A wonderful and engaging tour! Learned just as much about the art as the movie! The tour was set at a wonderful pace even though the museum was packed. I don’t have a single complaint or criticism about the tour!

If you enjoyed the movie Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, you will definitely enjoy this tour. Kelli presented the most detailed and informative facts of how John Hughes, the writer and director of this well done movie, implemented works of art from the Art institute of Chicago. You will not be disappointed! Highly recommend this tour, The Art of Ferris Bueller!
