Kelli was so knowledgeable of the area and so friendly to be with and to ask her questions. This is a good tour of an area that's not well known. Will definitely take more in the future!

What fun! It was a great way to learn more about John Hughes, his hidden movie nods to Chicago, along with the art he appreciated at the Art Institute.

We loved this tour! Kelli is so knowledgeable and personable. Learned so much about art and Ferris. My brother is a huge fan, this tour was his birthday gift. What a success! We will definitely book another tour with Kelli. It’s a great way to be a Chicago tourist!

If you're a fan of railroads, Chicago history, architecture and movies, this tour is for you. A knowledgeable and entertaining look at all four of the above.

Art of Ferris Bueller

This was more than just pointing out pictures and sculptures that were in Ferris Bueller. Kelli really dove deep into explaining why John Hughes selected this museum and art for the scenes. Kelli took pictures for us and encouraged discussion among all of us. This was definitely a highlight and brought this museum to a whole new level. If you haven’t seen the film in a long time she even had the scenes and showed them to us to refresh our memories. I would highly recommend this tour. Save time afterwards to explore the rest of the museum.

Kelli at Chicago Movie Tours gave a fantastic tour of Union Station for her tour "Hollywood on the Rails." She didn't just teach us about movies and TV shows, which were plentiful (I didn't realize that "The Sting" was filmed in part at Chicago Union Station); the tour also touched on points from a variety of fields, including architecture, art and design, history, technology, and of course, Chicago. It was a wonderful way to spend two hours, very informative and engaging, and very much worth your time, whether your interests lie in film, pop culture, history, architecture, or the Windy City!

Fun as well as incredibly educational. Absolutely fantastic tour. Kelli is one of the best tour guides I've ever had -- fun and easy-going but also incredibly knowledgeable. I learned so much about the Ferris Bueller film in particular but also about film-making in general, about the Art Institute and about Chicago. Highly recommend this tour.
