5.00Failed to do this tour when I lived here 30 years ago. Finally knocked it off my bucket list, and so worth the effort. Lance, the CAC volunteer, was our tour guide. He was exceptionally knowledgeable and provided great information about all we saw. Thank you for educating us regarding the meaning behind the Chicago city flag! I would highly recommend this tour for any architecture lovers or one who would like to know more about the history of Chicago.
Great Tour on the River
