Chicago Seadog River & Lake Architectural Tour

Ryan guide was great and made the architecture tour engaging, tou started and ended on time and felt the time was spent worthwhile. Highly recommended

This was pretty disappointing. Most of our time was spent waiting for the lock to open up to get to and from Lake Michigan. Hence, the tour operator did not include the length of the tour that was promoted on the river - we barely saw any of the architecture and stopped well before reaching Willis Tower. I would not recommend this tour. The guide was great, the boat was clean, but the “speedboat” ride was not very fast nor was it worth sacrificing half the length of the river tour. If the tour can’t go to the Willis Tower due to the lock schedule, it should not be advertised.

We specifically booked this tour as it indicated it would include the architectural tour in the river and a speed boat ride in Lake Michigan. When we arrived for our tour we were told that they would not be going out to the lake because of congestion at the locks as it was a weekend. Well if that is the case then they should not be selling tickets to these combo tours on weekends. Felt like a bait and switch tactic. Ended up buying an additional ticket for the Lake Michigan speed boat tour.

Excellent tour guide and friendly staff. Left in time and great communication leading up to it. It was raining and we still went out which was great but while the staff tried to dry the seats before hand I would maybe suggest some options for drying seats and helping passengers stay dry - even if that is selling cheap coveralls.

Fun family experience. The tour guide Rob did a great job! We had 6 kids of different ages and they all loved it!

This was fantastic experience from the start to finish! We did the 7:15 pm ride and it was the best time to do it in June. It was hot during the day but for the 7:15 pm ride the weather was much cooler which felt great! We boarder and finished at the Navy Pier. The pier is great to walk, have drink and food and enjoy some live music! It is fun amusement place! First we went on the river to downtown which was awesome! So informative and spectacular to see all the buildings!!! Wow! To see the buildings from the river and considering that it was slowly getting to sunset hour, I would do it again in a heartbeat! The reflection of the sun going down on the buildings at different angles was incredible! After the river Seadog team took us on the speed boat on the lake when Sun completed its sunset! We went fast on the boat, water splashing, music playing and everyone was laughing and having so much fun! IT WAS the BEST THING we did in Chicago! Book your tickets for the 7:15pm only with Seadog Speed Boat! The time of the ride and the company matters very much for the experience. And the boat is smaller than the other ones from other companies so we were smaller group of people given great fun and informative experience from the Crew! Thank you SEADOG! We love it!😍

They canceled the tour at the last minute after we paid an uber to get there. No reason was given for the cancellation.

Our family of 4 including 2 teenagers took the Seadog Architectural River Tour. Despite it being on the chilly side 2 days before June we thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Ryan was our guide and he did an amazing job as he was entertaining and informative and even took some great photos of us during the tour. I would absolutely recommend this tour for all ages. The city of Chicago has some incredible buildings and architecture and this is a great way to experience many of them.

When I got to the venue, they didn’t recognize that I had a ticket! thank God, the guy let me on the ship and said we’ll work it out later.

Ryan was fun and very knowledgeable. The weather was perfect on top of it. Taking a fast trip at the end in Lake Michigan was the perfect ending!
