Rejseplan
Gennem vores signaturcruise vil en af vores prisvindende Docenter præsentere mere end 50 skyskrabere, basculebroer og historiske steder.
På din arkitektoniske rundvisning vil du lære, hvordan Great Chicago Fire sprang en flod og gav mulighed for visionærer af strukturelt stål og pladeglas, såsom John Wellborn Root, William Le Baron Jenney, Louis Sullivan (Wrights mentor) og Daniel Burnham, på mindre end ti år, løfte Chicago fra ildens aske til nye højder. Chicagos opstigning fortsatte ind i det 20. århundrede med titaniske figurer som Bertrand Goldberg, Fazlur Khan og Mies van der Rohe – (højere/højere) bygninger, slankere – og det er steget i vejret i det 21. århundrede med dristige nye tårne som Trump Tower og Aqua designet af Jeanne Gang, en internationalt kendt kunstner af arkitektonisk design.

The tour guide was great! Very knowledgeable, but not just a dry recitation of facts! The boat was smaller, which was nice, because it was more personal.. We saw many that were really large and not so personal.
We went in late afternoon, great time to see the city from the water. Tyler was an excellent guide and gave great insight into the history of the architecture and how it evolved over the last 100+ years. Best to sit top deck to take everything in but wear sunscreen. Refreshments were easily accessible and the staff were friendly beginning to end
It’s was informative just didn’t expect the tour guide to speak the whole experience I think a lil time to just watch and intake and enjoy would enhance the experience.
Great cruise! Very informative and a beautiful day in Chicago! Staff was very nice and was booked but comfortable.
It was the best part of our Chicago experience. The guide was informative and the buildings were magnificent. Not over crowded. Great experience.
The actual tour was amazing. The guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. My only complaint is the location was difficult to find and the instructions were not easy to follow, especially if you don't know the area
The speaker told us the history of buildings and the surroundings. Great details. Loved hearing all the information!
Very knowledgeable and entertaining guide.
This boat tour was excellent (and I’ve done a couple in Chicago) staff was pleasant, free soft drinks and lemonade, seating was good. We came very close to leaving time and sat on the side of the boat and was still great. Our tour guide Lynn was extremely knowledgeable and her voice was very pleasant. I would 100% do it again.
I erpriced for what you get if it's a nice day and you want a narrated boat ride, Cityview boats are far more cost effective and you get the same architectural insight from the boat. If you really want archecture, either do the walking tours or even better BEFORE you come to Chicago, check with the Chicago cultural center to have them hook you up with a free local guide who wants to show off Loop architecture
