シカゴ シティ ツアー : 高架建築ツアー (電車のチケット付き)
説明
高架電車と駅のホームというユニークな視点からシカゴの素晴らしい建築物を探索しましょう。有名な「L」システムの背後にある歴史を学び、それがループ内の建物の開発をどのように形作ってきたかを聞いてください。 シカゴ初の高架鉄道は 1892 年に運行を開始しました。現在、シカゴの最も特徴的な特徴の 1 つと考えられている「L」からは、ダウンタウンの素晴らしい景色を眺めることができます。地面から 6 フィート以上離れたところに立つと、道路レベルではほとんどの歩行者が見逃してしまう建築の細部が見えてきます。これはループ内で最も包括的なツアーであり、何百もの建物を通り、建築的に重要な建物に焦点を当てています。認定非営利団体として、CAC チケットの購入はすべて、教育活動とコミュニティ参加プロジェクトを直接支援します。

We are CAC members and have many of the tours but this Elevated Train Tour was one of the best. Our guide Steve was excellent- knowledgeable, interesting and easy to follow. It was a great combination of learning about the history of the trains along with the architecture that surrounds them. We would highly recommend it
Thank you for the fantastic review! The Elevated Architecture tour is outstanding and we're delighted you enjoyed exploring the L system with Steve. We look forward to seeing you on more tours soon!
I loved this tour!! I’ve been to stunning train stations I normally wouldn’t go to, and Chris P explained everything so clearly and relaxed!
Thank you for the great review! We're so happy you enjoyed the Elevated Architecture tour. It really is a great way to explore Chicago's most famous train line. We hope to see you on another tour!
We had a wonderful tour with Quentin. He was full of information about events leading to the elevated system. Also, so much information about the buildings surrounding the areas we covered. The admission price is reasonable. The time allowed was sufficient but we would have enjoyed even more time.
Thank you for the wonderful review! We are so happy you enjoyed the Elevated Architecture Tour--it really is a unique way to explore the city. We hope to see you on more tours soon!
Steve the docent was extremely knowledgeable and was able to explain many concepts simply and concisely. We highly recommend this in depth tour regarding the “L” and Chicago history.
Thank you for the great review! The L tour is spectacular and we're delighted you enjoyed the tour. We appreciate the recommendation and hope to see you again!
Barbara is a wonderful docent. This is our 2nd tour with Barbara. She is very experienced, talks clearly and gives lots inside stories.
Thank you for the terrific review! We are so happy you enjoyed the L tour with Barbara and hope to see you again!
Chicago Architecture Center has the best tours! This is one of many that we've taken and it did not disappoint. Chris P. did an amazing job with information and keeping us moving on and off the trains.
Thank you for the great review! We're so happy you enjoyed the L tour with Chris and appreciate your continued support. We look forward to seeing you on another tour soon!
We have previously taken the CAC boat tour and one of the surface walking tours (both of which were great), but this time we wanted something with a slightly different perspective while staying downtown. We chose the Elevated Architecture Downtown ‘L’ Train tour led by Andrew, our CAC docent. As no one else had signed up for the tour that morning, it became a private tour. Andrew was not only very knowledgeable about the architecture and friendly, but also, given that he works in planning at the Chicago Metro, was able to take us on an even deeper dive concerning the “L”, its history, and some of the current challenges. As we were about 35’ about street level for the tour, we were also treated to a different perspective of the building and their design/decoration, something that cannot be readily observed from street level. Thans again to Andrew for an information and entertaining tour above the streets of downtown Chicago–truly a unique experience.
Thank you for the wonderful review! How lucky to get a private tour! We're so happy you enjoyed the Elevated Architecture tour and hope to see you again the next time you visit Chicago!
Andrew led our tour. He was extremely knowledgeable and personable. You could tell he enjoys architecture and made you enjoy hearing about it. Overall a fun experience.
Thanks for the great review! We're delighted that you enjoyed the Elevated Architecture tour and hope to see you again. We appreciate the recommendation!
If it is cold and windy, dress warm. If it is raining, wear waterproof clothes. If it is hot, dress in light weight garments. You get the idea...
Chris P was excellent. Family enjoyed very much the balance of walking and riding the El around the loop. We had lived in Chicago a number of years ago and learned a lot of history and facts we never knew. It was a great pace and we enjoyed it very much.
Thanks for sharing! We’re thrilled the tour gave your family a fun, informative, and memorable look at Chicago’s Loop. We hope to see you again the next time you visit Chicago!
