Being first time vistors to Chicago and excited about visiting Greektown, we were more than impressed with Parthenon. We are always exploring authentic Greek restaurants and this one tops our list. After being told it was an hour wait at the neighboring Athena restaurant, where there were empty tables everywhere and no one waiting to be seated, we walked into Parthenon where hungry, waiting people were crammed in the front area, the bar, and even flowing out the front doors. We were told that it could be an hour or more, but decided the wait would be worth it. We were seated after only 30 minutes (this was Valentine's day and a Saturday night) and served bread and drinks straight away. Being quite familiar with Greek cuisine, we were impressed at the variety of choices on the menu. We chose the family style menu, and the food started coming right away. The waiters were hurried, but never rude. The portions were generous and the prices extremely reasonable. There was so much food, that by the time our main courses came out, we had to box it all up and take it back to our hotel. Parthenon made our first visit to Greektown pleasant and memorable!
Pros: authentic atmosphere, large portions, great value

Every year my family and I enjoy the lake tour at Navy Pier, especially on hot days. We learn about the city that we've grown up in. It is wonderful for tourists and locals alike.

I took the highlights bus tour that went through downtown and through the neighborhoods of Chicago. It was 3.5 hours and $40. I can't wait to do it again. As a person who has been to Chicago a few times and didn't want to do anything too much like a tourist...I tried this out and was so happy I did. We were able to go into buildings downtown and then we were able to take a tour of the Robie house not to mention getting to see about 30 miles of Chicago. If you can this is a MUST SEE!
Pros: So historical and so much information. It was a great experience.

My wife and I used cruise holidays to book our Honeymoon. We were not sure what line we wanted to use but told them our requirements and they helped us decide. We went with their recommendation of Azamara Journey and it was PERFECT! I would highly recommend them if you are planning on taking a cruise. Their staff was knowledgeable and very very helpful! Overall we could not have been happier!
Pros: Very clean ship. Very very high level of service.
Cons: None

This is a good travel agency to use if you are ever planning to travel abroad. They do not have many good packages for travel within the fifty states, but they have some great offers for international travel. You can usually save a bunch with this agency if you get one of their packages that include hotel/air/food. They are a friendly group of travel agents and they work hard to try to get you what you need at the budget you need. Check them out if you are going to travel!

We worked with Jay at Sunset Travel to help us plan our wedding in Riviera Maya, Mexico. We can't begin to say enough wonderful things about Jay and his team. They took the very best care of us and our group and always had our best interest in mind. They did a great job of explaining all of our options for our group and were always extremely organized with our large group. we would absolutely recommend them and intend to use them again for any travel plans that we make.

Every time I have to go back to Pakistan, I go here because I get the best fares here. The travel agents here are really nice and they work with you so you pay the lowest price. My favorite thing is that they give you all the inside secrets like when the prices will be the lowest. I use them for almost five years now and they are very nice. They also do travel booking for other countries but I have never used it so I do not know how their prices are for that.

I used this travel agency to get tickets for an international tour. They book for travel nationwide or internationally. The agents here were great, they gave me a few packages to choose from and they were all really reasonably priced. The service at this company is very good-- the salesman even hand delivered my ticket to my door. I will definitely use them again!

I went to Oceania Tours to book my trip to Hong Kong a few years ago. They had a special rate which made it a good deal to travel at that time. Their staff is ok, they did not seem to go out of their way to get the best rate or seats for us. they just used want was published in the ad in the newspaper. I might go look for another agent if their service does not improve.
