Sample guide
A Chicago weekend for two
Friday, May 7 to Sunday, May 9, 2027. Architecture, baseball, classical music and good food, at a balanced pace, with one vegetarian traveler. Practical, usable information, no fluff.
This is a sample. Jordan and Sam are made-up travelers, and their flight and hotel are placeholders. Every venue, event, price and date in the guide is real and was checked on November 14, 2026, with sources listed in the guide. Times not yet published (like 2027 Cubs game times) are marked TBA.
