ABOUT OUR MIDWESTERN TOURS American Classic Tours has been headquartered in the Chicago area since our founding in 1988. We’re proud to have a loyal following of travelers from our hometown. For this reason, we have many short getaways which depart by motorcoach from the Chicago area. Wherever in America you may call home, we invite you to join us as we discover the heritage of the heartland.

Journey off-the-beaten-path on these unique itineraries highlighting the history, beauty and charm of the Midwest.

FOR TRAVELERS LIVING IN CHICAGO AREA

If you live in the Chicago area (within 50 miles of O’Hare International Airport) you will receive complimentary home pickup & return service to begin and end your journey. On the morning of Day 1, a home pickup vehicle will bring you to meet the motorcoach at a centrally-located meetup spot in the Chicago area. Likewise, on the last day of your tour, a vehicle will meet you at the motorcoach to bring you home. If you live outside the 50 mile home pickup radius, home pickup service still may be available in your area for an additional fee.

FOR TRAVELERS LIVING OUTSIDE OF THE CHICAGO AREA

We recommend arriving in Chicago the day before the tour begins and staying at a local hotel. A complimentary transfer to/from your hotel to the motorcoach is provided on both the first and last day of the tour. If you’d like to add a pre‑tour and/or post‑tour hotel stay in the Chicago area, please let us know when you book, and our reservations team will be happy to arrange it for you.

TOUR ACTIVITY AND TOUR PACING DETAILS We believe that a key component of delivering an outstanding experience is to properly set expectations so that you can discern whether a particular itinerary is a good fit for you. With your comfort in mind, we’ve provided a detailed Tour Activity description and Tour Pacing description for each itinerary.

TOUR ACTIVITY The required walking times listed on each itinerary’s tour activity section indicate our best approximate estimate of the minimum amount of walking necessary to complete the tour. Please note that additional walking may be needed in order to take full advantage of the guided tours, attractions, etc. listed on an itinerary. Every tour departure is subject to unique circumstances that lie out of the control of American Classic Tours, which may cause these estimated required walking times to vary.

TOUR PACING While all American Classic Tours strike a pleasant balance between planned activities and free time to relax and take it all in, some tours include more robust days with more planned activities while others include more leisurely days with more free time. The Tour Pacing indicates whether you should expect a specific itinerary to be relatively more robust or more leisurely.

MOBILITY LIMITATIONS AND SPECIAL ASSISTANCE With your safety, comfort and satisfaction as our first priority, we recommend that you consider tours in which you are able to comfortably meet the approximate required level of activity listed in the Tour Activity section.

The responsibility of the American Classic Tour Director who leads your tour is to ensure that the group as a whole enjoys a relaxing and enriching journey, and he or she cannot be relied upon to provide ongoing individualized assistance for any one guest with walking difficulties. We regret that American Classic is unable to provide individualized assistance for guests using motorized scooters or wheelchairs. For guests requiring such individualized assistance, they must be accompanied by an able-bodied companion who is able to provide assistance for them.

If you are considering bringing a personal mobility device, please contact our office at the time of reservation. If your personal mobility device exceeds luggage requirements, it may impact transportation arrangements and a surcharge may apply. Prior to the final payment date, our office must be notified if you plan on bringing a personal mobility device.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? INVOICE After you make your reservation, we will send an invoice to your email showing what you have paid, your remaining balance, and the final payment due date. If you purchased Travel Insurance, you will receive an email with a link to the policy.
