  • 1Viator sucks

    I was down in Chicago on a visit and was trying to schedule a boat to her that my boss sent me the link to and then it switched me over to these guys and they’re totally a rip off. They did not even sell me the right ticket they took $72 off of my card and I didn’t even ever get to go on the boat because this app they suck

    Very bad experience. I bought the chicago water taxi tour tickets but tickets could not be scanned as they did not have the QR codes. Bar codes could not be scanned.

  • 5Great way to see the city

    Well worth the money to go back and forth all day. We didn’t have to wait too much at each stop, but it allowed us to go from the museum to Navy Pier to Willis tower and back for one price. Great investment for the day of travel!

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.
