5.00Chose Navy Pier 8:30pm cruise ***from the navy pier (emohasis on navy pier) so that at the end i can catch navy pier fireworks at 10pm on a Saturday summer night. Planning turned out great. Plus weather was great. Cruise itself was very enjoyable and relaxing. Tons of jnfo from guide who had enough humor to balance with all the fun facts. An hour well spent.

5.00I went with my family on a chicago architecture center cruise at sunset and at first I was skeptical because it was honestly on the pricer side, though this was by far the most fun thing we did in Chicago. Even my teenage daughter who is usually really bored of archecticture really liked it. We learnt so much that we would never have understood and our tour guide was so knowledgable and made our entire trip. He was so friendly and did it in 90 degree heat. Thank you so much Dan. J for the 7 PM cruise on 7/2/26!!! Truly the best experience I could have asked for.
I have always wanted to...

5.00I have always wanted to take the architecture boat tour of Chicago. I'm glad I booked this tour, as the tour guide (Stephanie) was excellent. Boat was easy to find and was very clean. They have a full bar on board (bought water on a very hot day!) and restrooms. There were places with shade on our vessel, both upstairs and downstairs. I highly recommend the tour!
