Itinerary and highlights

See the real house from Home Alone! Live vicariously through Kevin McAllister, Marv & Harry! Great spot to get out, stretch legs and take some photos.

Revisit another one of John Hughes’ iconic American coming-of-age films and the awesome house where Ferris Bueller's best friend, Cameron, lived! This is also the site where Cameron’s dad’s sweet ride resided in the movie, the 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California.

See the famous football field from the ending scene of The Breakfast Club! Do a fist bump for the ultimate photo-op, just like John Bender. Gather all your favorite quotes from the film to share with other Breakfast Club fanatics!

The Green Mill is an entertainment venue known for over 115 years of jazz performances and poetry performances, and its historic connection to the Chicago mob. Several notable movies were filmed here, including Thief, High Fidelity, The Dilemma, The Lake House, and more!
