It was amazing experience but due to wind it’s very chilly to sit on the top. Otherwise everything is perfect
Worth it, twice!

This was my second time doing the architectural tour. Enjoyed it just as much as the first time. Saw things different than I did previously and also learned more than I had in the past.
Great way to see Chicago
