5.00Great experience. Friendly and informative staff. Small bar onboard and was surprised at how many things we learned and how relaxing it is.
A ride on the Fred A. Busse Fireboat is a MUST for anyone who lives in or visits Chicago!

5.00The Boat: A ride on a decommissioned fireboat is a super cool experience. It's spacious, there is a bar with drinks and snacks, and it's basically a museum on the water. The Tour: Holy History Bat Man! My father has lived in Chicago for most of his life and was amazed at how much he didn't know. The tour guide was flawless. He explained everything in detail and truly made it fun. The Staff: Friendly, professional, considerate (my father is older and blind in one eye so they told us we could get on first to make sure he got situated comfortably), and just a pleasure to be around. We can't say enough good things about this tour! Thank you for a fantastic experience!

5.00There were 3 of us. This was a great experience. It is a smaller boat. Very well operated, maintained and had a great narrator on board. We sat in the front area for most of the tour, beautiful day though chilly. This is for anyone wanting to feel the drop in Lochs and hear current & historical information on the buildings along the Lake. Fun excursion

5.00The people who did the tour were great, informative and friendly. The boat was cool as it was historical. It was comfortable with the bow open with seating and the back area enclosed and warm. Drinks and snacks were available and reasonably priced. Great time!

5.00I'm so glad we got to go on the Chicago Fireboat cruise! The whole crew was so welcoming and the fact that they held the boat for us (we were 6 minutes late) gave them an immediate 5 stars but the experience alone warranted the full 5 as well. Going from the lake, through the locks and into the river then back again was super cool and a first for everyone in our party. We did the 4pm tour so we got to see the sunset at the end which was so gorgeous! Highly recommend!!!
great time on Fireboat river and lake cruise - learned a lot about Chicago
