The guide was really good, and the cruise is short enough for winter, and it clearly goes through the right places, but it's clearly not the best boat for an architectural cruise: the first level is not well isolated, there is no heated place anywhere on the boat, the upper deck is all open with plastic chairs. There is no blanket provided, you have to buy them 10$, every hot drink at the bar is 12$, and there is a minimum 18% tip on the desk for this (it's a bar, there is no service)... All the kind of things that makes you feel as a tourist trap than a cruise where they take care of the customers ! Look somewhere else and you will understand my point, as I tried a few of them on the river already.
Definitely a great idea

It was chilling! But the narration by Liam was quite detailed, involving and extra funny with low-grade jokes (more like puns with disclaimer). Would love to take it again during summer.
Wonderful Experience

We had a PHENOMENAL expert host who knew so much about the rich history and architecture of Chicago that while it was freezing I was engulfed in the amazing stories he shared and stayed on top the entire ride because of his enthusiasm.
