Chicago’s pursuit of peace

In honor of Chicago’s hosting of the NATO and Nobel Peace Prize Summits in 2012, this special edition tour will explore Chicago’s tumultuous pursuit of peace and its role in hosting these two world-changing - yet sometimes controversial - events.

Riding through Chicago, you'll dive into the City's rich and extremely relevant political, social, and economic history while discussing how it connects to the NATO and Nobel Peace Prize Summits.

Guests will learn about the riots of the Democratic Convention of ’68 and the Haymarket tragedy, and we’ll look into the clashing interests of mayors, immigrants, labor movements, business leaders, and social workers all in their pursuits of both a greater life and City.

You won’t want to miss this one-time quintessential Chicago tour.
