I'm Dave Lifton. For as long as I can remember, wherever I’ve lived or traveled, I’ve been fascinated by local history. If you’ve ever walked down a street and almost crashed into someone who had to stop and read a landmark plaque on a random building, that was probably me. I’m sorry. That curiosity has led to my career as a tour guide. I love going into the depths of Chicago’s past and then conveying it to my guests in an informative and entertaining manner. My goal is that you leave with an understanding what makes this place special. I am a member of the Chicago Tour-Guides Professional Association.
