2.00Great views but boring. All the workers were short patience with attitudes. The admission fee doesn’t come with the tilt experience. I had to pay for that separately. The drinks that were included is a selective drink menu. 1 picture was $35 it was an overrated experience honestly.

5.00What a view!!! This activity was certainly worth seeing. The lines are very organized and move quickly. The buildings and Lake Superior afford spectacular view. The pre-purchased cocktail was delicious!

5.00I brought visiting family here as I thought it was the best place to see Chicago from different points of view. Adding a drink at the Cloud Bar was a plus. Took a photo of sunset through my glass of Sauvignon Blanc. I was surprised that I too felt like a tourist seeing Chicago for the first time.
