A Chicago Day the Tour Buses Don’t Reach

We want to see the Chicago places the tour buses skip, all together in one vehicle. Can a car service plan that?

From a 5-star Trustpilot review. Written without the rider’s full name.

The Situation

What the Rider Needed

A family group wanted to visit places in Chicago that the hop-on, hop-off bus tours don’t reach, and to travel together.

The Plan

How the Ride Was Arranged

They contacted Marius, who was flexible and sent them photos of the vehicles so they could choose.

They booked a 14-passenger Sprinter with comfortable seats, an audio system with Bluetooth for their own playlist, a TV, and a cooler with ice.

The Result

How It Went

The driver took them to every stop they had planned, found convenient places to drop them off and pick them up, and helped each person in and out of the van. They wrote that he was very flexible with them.

What to Send for an Accurate Quote

The more of this you share when you book, the more precisely the ride can be planned.

  • The places you want to see and roughly how long at each
  • How many people are coming, including children or older relatives
  • The pickup address and the time you want to finish
  • Anything you want on board (music, drinks, room for strollers)
