Rondreisopties
Reisroute
Tijdens onze kenmerkende cruise presenteert een van onze bekroonde Docents meer dan 50 wolkenkrabbers, basculebruggen en historische locaties.
Tijdens je Architectural Tour leer je hoe de Great Chicago Fire over een rivier sprong en visionairs van constructiestaal en plaatglas mogelijk maakte, zoals John Wellborn Root, William Le Baron Jenney, Louis Sullivan (Wright's mentor) en Daniel Burnham, in minder dan tien jaar, verhef Chicago uit de as van het vuur naar nieuwe hoogten. Chicago's beklimming ging door tot in de 20e eeuw met titanische figuren zoals Bertrand Goldberg, Fazlur Khan en Mies van der Rohe - (hogere/hogere) gebouwen, slanker - en het is in de 21e eeuw enorm gestegen met gedurfde nieuwe torens zoals The Trump Tower en Aqua ontworpen door Jeanne Gang, een internationaal bekende kunstenaar van architectonisch ontwerp.

The guide was interesting, very informative and appropriately enthusiastic. Boat seats were pretty uncomfortable, about as expected, but the tour was more exhaustive and detailed than we'd expected, so that was a very pleasant surprise. Overall this was a very worthwhile experience.
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.
