    Great experience. There are wonderful views from the boat and our guide (Victor) was very informative and entertaining with his storytelling and historical facts. The architecture tour really brought the history of Chicago to life through the changing structures and styles of the buildings.

  • 5Cool experience and take your dogs if you can!

    This was a really cool experience and a great way to see the Chicago River and the Chicago skyline. The history was interesting and Mac our guide was great and super informative. We traveled with our 2 dogs and the boat was gentle enough that you barely felt like you were moving. Money well spent!

  • 5Fantastic tour guide, and breathtaking views

    The views were absolutely breathtaking but what made the experience 100% better was the speaker giving the history behind each building. He was amazing and very witty. Will be booking this boat tour again if he’s on board.

About Chicago

Chicago is a Great Lakes city on Lake Michigan, famed for skyscraper architecture, deep-dish pizza, blues and jazz and a long lakefront of parks.

Chicago rebuilt itself after the fire of 1871 and became the cradle of the skyscraper. The Chicago River runs through the Loop, where tall towers rise, and boat tours explain the architecture from the water. Millennium Park's mirrored Cloud Gate sculpture, known as the Bean, and the Art Institute of Chicago, with its Impressionist paintings, are close together. Willis Tower has a glass-floored observation deck.

Top-ranked sights in Chicago: Navy Pier, Wrigley Building, The Magnificent Mile.
