Where can I call/email to have visitor's guide/maps mailed to me about Chicago?

Question

I would like maps and visitors guides, etc.. I know there's tons of stuff online but I want the packages mailed to me. I don't want to print all of it off. Do you know how/where I can request that information?

I'm thinking about buying books on Chicago too, can you recommend some?

Thanks!

Answer 1

choosechicago.com is the visitor's bureau. They can send you all kinds of information. If you want a good travel book for Chicago, I'd recommend Frommer's - if you want an interesting book about Chicago, at least its early history (although partly fictional and partly non-fiction), I'd recommend "The Devil in the White City."

Answer 2

1-800-2CONNECT. It's the number to ask all sorts of questions and they will mail out whatever you want. Ask about different parts of the city and for what you Really wanna know. Who's comming to town and everything

Answer 3

I have not found any place for maps, brochures etc. but have found the city's dept of tourism with contact info at the site below:
