This was a beautiful way to spend a friend’s birthday. Great views and a great time. Monica and Maria were absolutely incredible - kind, fun, and overall ideal captain and co-captain. Will be requesting them for the next time we do a cruise.

Monica was great. So much fun. We went on a two hour tour and she told us lots of things about Chicago. While it was cold we still enjoyed the tour.
