Itinerario
Durante la nostra crociera firmata uno dei nostri premiati Docenti presenterà più di 50 grattacieli, ponti di base e siti storici.
Durante il tuo tour architettonico, imparerai come il grande incendio di Chicago ha saltato un fiume e ha permesso ai visionari di acciaio strutturale e lastre di vetro, come John Wellborn Root, William Le Baron Jenney, Louis Sullivan (mentore di Wright) e Daniel Burnham, in meno di dieci anni, solleva Chicago dalle ceneri del fuoco a nuove altezze. L'ascesa di Chicago è continuata nel XX secolo con figure titaniche come Bertrand Goldberg, Fazlur Khan e Mies van der Rohe - edifici (più alti / più alti), più eleganti - ed è salito alle stelle nel 21 ° secolo con nuovi campanili audaci come la Trump Tower e Aqua progettata da Jeanne Gang, artista di design architettonico di fama internazionale.

What a visually stunning way to see the city! I learned so much about the history and styles of th buildings. Our Volunteer docent, Cressida (?) the pharmacist, was knowledgeable and engaging. I suspect you could take this cruise multiple times and learn something new from each new docent. It's a plus that First Lady Cruises is affiliated with the Architectural Society of Chicago. Highly recommend.
Our guide had an architectural history degree which made him extremely knowledgeable, but his ability to weave the Chicago skyline into stories was exceptional.
Really nice size boat. Not too large. Free refreshments!!! Really good tour guide.comfortable seating. Good commucation.
A great tour in a well kept boat. Our docent did a great job, and was very knowledgeable. I can’t recall his name, but he was a lifelong resident of Chicago.
Great “thing to do”! One of the best bookings we have done
It’s very educational and lots to learn about the history and architecture of Chicago. We had a great time.
Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the history, architecture, landscape and more. It was a fun 90 minutes of touring Chicago.
We were forced to sit downstairs on the boat and so many of the points made by the guide were unintelligible. Hard to see the buildings. Also, did not appreciate the cheap-shot taken at St. Louis, a city with a history that is longer and more interesting than Chicago's. Also, the Cardinals history has always made the Cubbies the laughingstock of baseball and all sports.
Hi William, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m sorry to hear that your experience onboard did not meet expectations. While we utilize both decks for seating on one of our vessels, all guests should be able to clearly hear and follow the architectural narration. I apologize that portions were difficult to understand from your seating area, and I’ll be sure to share that feedback with our team. I also appreciate you mentioning the St. Louis comment. Our docents sometimes incorporate lighthearted humor and city rivalries into their narration, but it’s never our intention to take away from a guest’s experience. Thank you again for sailing with us and for sharing your feedback. Best, Chicago Line Cruises Team
This boat tour was super informative and fun! We liked it that is was a smaller ship. The bar staff were efficient and friendly. Lynn, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable and made several suggestions on attractions beyond the river.
Melissa, thank you so much for the kind review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the smaller, more intimate experience onboard and had a great time with our crew. We’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to Lynn and our bar team. We hope to welcome you back onboard again soon Best, Chicago Line Cruises Team
We got there early and they said we could go on the hour earlier cruise which was nice. Our guide was very informative. Enjoyed the cruise very much.
Dohle, thank you for the great review! We’re so glad we were able to get you onboard an earlier cruise and that you enjoyed the tour and our guide. We hope to welcome you back onboard again soon!
