Very informative, love the staff members, they were very entertaining and fun. Would recommend the 90 minute to see everything.
Great tour. Tour guide was terrific. Very interesting stories, history, and information provided. A beautiful day!
Our guide was incredibly informative with a bit of humor too. She was quite strict with people talking over the commentary which was good. The length of the tour was good. Highly recommend
Great experience and the perfect way to show guests Chicago. Our guide, Jim, was just terrific. His presentation was VERY informative and entertaining. My guests remarked on what a great experience they had. Kudos to Wendalla!!!
The boat was clean and comfortable. Jack was fantastic!! He was very knowledgeable, funny and personable. 5 stars!!
This tour was such a cool experience. I've been to Chicago a handful of times but this was my first time doing the boat tour. 10/10 recommend, went to the 7:30pm timing and we got to see the daytime and nighttime views of Chicago.
Enjoyed touring and learning about the city. Be mindful of where you sit on the boat to avoid gasoline fumes. Otherwise, the tour guide was knowledgeable and shared humor. The timing of the tour was perfect.
The tour guide, Scott, was very fun, knowledgeable, and engaging! It’s clear he loves his craft and is passionate about his job. It was really neat to learn the history of so many buildings and the river itself.
I enjoyed this tour! Our tour guide was very knowledeable! Chicago has some of the most varied architectural styles I have ever seen! From the Willis (Sears) Tower, to the Corn Cob buildings, to the first skyscraper, the Aqua Tower, designed by a woman architect, Jeanne Gang! She also designed the St. Regis Chicago, which is the tallest skyscraper in the world designed by a woman! Each skyscraper is unique and has a story to tell!
The tour was fabulous, guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. We enjoyed the tour once on the boat …but we had difficulty getting down the steps to the boat and returning up the stairs after tour. It was definitely not handicapped accessible and my husband and I both have mobility issues.
