5.00It was amazing! Entrance to boat was smooth, seating was easy and staff was helpful. Our guide was friendly, informative and knowledgeable. The buildings are so different and creative. There is so much history about them. The views were phenomenal, glad we came!

5.00Steve (& I am sure others who lead for this Co.) did a thorough and excellent job telling the story of the River and its development and changes while chronicling architectural features and engineering feats of countless significant buildings. Don’t walk, run to enjoy this tour (as I did as I accidentally headed to the wrong boat company & had to hustle! Luckily the tale starts as the boat is still on dock.) Enjoy. No tests after as there’s way too much to remember. Build on prior knowledge or get your first tid bits on how the big teams designed & built Chicago’s masterworks.
