Opciones de la excursión
Itinerario
A lo largo de nuestro crucero exclusivo, uno de nuestros galardonados Docents presentará más de 50 rascacielos, puentes basculantes y sitios históricos.
En su recorrido arquitectónico, aprenderá cómo el gran incendio de Chicago saltó un río y permitió visionarios del acero estructural y el vidrio plano, como John Wellborn Root, William Le Baron Jenney, Louis Sullivan (mentor de Wright) y Daniel Burnham, en menos de diez años, levantar a Chicago de las cenizas del fuego a nuevas alturas. El ascenso de Chicago continuó en el siglo XX con figuras titánicas como Bertrand Goldberg, Fazlur Khan y Mies van der Rohe (edificios (más altos / más altos), más elegantes) y se ha disparado en el siglo XXI con nuevos campanarios audaces como The Trump Tower y Aqua diseñado por Jeanne Gang, una artista de diseño arquitectónico de fama internacional.

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
