Millennium Park er en attraktion, du ikke må gå glip af, hvis du besøger Chicago. Lakefront campus, der ligger i hjertet af downtown, er hjemsted for den ikoniske Cloud Gate statue (aka "Bonen"), interaktive fontener, rolige haver, gratis begivenheder, offentlig kunst, skateboards, rock klatring, og masser af grønt rum.
Art Institute of Chicago, hjemsted for en samling af kunst, der spænder over århundreder og verden - og en af Tripadvisor 'Best of the Best' amerikanske attraktioner i 2024
Grant Park er en stor urban park i Loop-fællesskabet i Chicago, Illinois. Beliggende inden for byens centrale forretningsdistrikt, 319-acre (1,29 km2) parkens funktioner omfatter Millennium Park, Buckingham Fountain, Art Institute of Chicago, og Museum Campus.
Buckingham Fountain er et Chicago landemærke i centrum af Grant Park, mellem Queen's Landing og slutningen af Ida B. Wells Drive. Dedikeret i 1927 og doneret til byen af filantrop Kate S. Buckingham, er det en af de største fontener i verden. Bygget i en rococo bryllupskage stil og inspireret af Latona Fountain på Palace of Versailles, dens design allegorisk repræsenterer nærliggende Lake Michigan.
Chicago Lakefront Trail (LFT[1]) er en 18,5 kilometer lang (29,8 km)[2] delvis delt vej til vandreture, jogging, skateboarding og cykling, beliggende langs den vestlige kyst af Lake Michigan i Chicago, Illinois. Stien passerer gennem og forbinder Chicagos fire store søparker sammen med forskellige strande og rekreative faciliteter. Det tjener også som en rute for cykel, skateboard og personlige transporter pendlere.
Chicago skyline, især fra bredden af Lake Michigan nær Adler Planetarium, tilbyder en fantastisk udsigt, med byens lys reflekterer på vandet på rolige aftener. Adler Planetarium giver også et unikt perspektiv på byen og nattehimlen, med Doane Observatory tilbyder en nærbillede af universet

Booked the tour, got the confirmation e-mail but when we arrived there were no bike guides available so did the Segway tour instead with Vincent which was fab. (See separate review). We did get given some “free” bikes to guide ourselves on after the Segway tour (which was a nice gesture and prevented a 1 star review) - but if you are considering a bike tour, having now done the Segway tour (as middle aged first timers) go for Segways instead. The bikes were decent but the Segway route is much more interesting.
Paid for a 10a start, no one was there. When I saw someone approach and sit on the bikes parked next to office I ask if he worked there and he said “No”, 5min later while on the phone with TA trying to locate the tour guide this SAME man got up and opened the shop! So they are liars and the tour guide was a no show. I do not advise to use this rental. Go to Bob’s or go on the boat tour, you’ll have much better experience!
Don’t waste your time with this like I did. Turned up for the tour to be told the guide had a sudden family emergency so was cancelled at the last minute. Rearranged for the next day and guess what??? A different guide had an emergency so was cancelled again !!
Me and my sister decided to try a bike tour of the city and we are so glad we picked this one. Katey, our tour guide was awesome. She was super knowledgeable and friendly. We got to experience riding by the lake, hear about Chicago’s history, and see some lovely neighborhoods. We had a great time and I would highly recommend!
We had an amazing adventure with Jay of Bike and Roll Chicago. It was a rainy day, but that did not stop Jay from leading us around Lincoln Park and Chicago beaches with interesting stories about the city's history. It was a great time, and we loved having the beaches and bike paths to ourselves!
Had a great time on the Bike and Roll Segway Tour of the Lakefront. Matt was the tour guide and he did a great job. Really enjoyed seeing Millennium Park, Solider Field, The Bean, the Planetarium, the Crown Fountain. Matt is very knowledgeable about the area. Very pleasant way to spend a couple of hours.
<p>Moderate level of activity, good trails, recreational. Hard to maneuver around crowds, suggest to take the earlier tours as crowds get thicker as the day passes specially on the popular spots</p>
<p>Our tour guide called in sick but we were offered all day bike hire instead. Bike paths are easy to follow so not only did we get right up the waterfront past Lincoln park but we visited zoo and then went back down through millennium and grant parks to visit aquarium. Really good day 6 hours of easy biking.</p>
