Chicago Walking Tour: Historic Treasures of Chicago
Beschrijving
Kom meer te weten over de grote architectonische bezienswaardigheden van Michigan Avenue en State Street. In de 40 jaar tussen 1890 en 1930 werden enkele van de meest memorabele gebouwen van Chicago gecreëerd, waarvan er vele op deze tour te zien zijn. Na de World's Columbian Exposition van 1893 was Chicago vastbesloten om een grote culturele en commerciële metropool te worden. Deze tour is een bewijs van de ambities van die tijd. Bekijk gebouwen van Daniel Burnham, Louis Sullivan, Holabird en Roche en andere bekende architecten en luister naar de verhalen achter de architectonische juweeltjes van de stad. Als gecertificeerde non-profitorganisatie ondersteunen alle aankopen van CAC-tickets rechtstreeks onze onderwijsinspanningen en projecten voor gemeenschapsbetrokkenheid.

I went on the Chicago Architecture Center's Interior Treasures of the Golden Age tour in June 2026. Betty was my docent and she was outstanding. She knew her subject inside and out and explained things to us in a very understandable manner. It was clear to us that Betty is passionate about Chicago and this tour. Also, it was raining that day but her bright demeanor kept the tour light and fun. CAC has a great docent in Betty!
Thank you for the great review! We're delighted you enjoyed the Historic Treasures tour with Betty and appreciate the kind words. We hope to see you again the next time you visit Chicago!
Highly recommend!!! Our tour guide was very knowledgable and we learned alot. If you are interested in seeing the beauty INSIDE Chicago's great architectural giants you should do this tour!!!
After already doing the architecture tour by boat, I wanted to spend more time getting up and close with the buildings. Bill was a fantastic tour guide who shared so much knowledge and history about some of Chicago's most fascinating buildings. It was like a behind the scenes tour of Chicago that many visitors never experience. I learned so much about the cultural center and Tiffany's domes. Would highly recommend. Your ticket includes entry to the Chicago Architecture Museum, so we checked that out after the tour too.
As a solo traveler, I really enjoyed this tour. What I appreciated most was that we explored both the exterior and interior of several iconic buildings, making the experience much more immersive. My guide, John, provided excellent historical context, explained how the buildings evolved over time, and pointed out many architectural details that I would have missed on my own. A great introduction to Chicago's architecture and history. Highly recommended!

We toured Graceland Cemetery with Mary Jo Hoag! The theme was “women’s stories “. She is a great storyteller. We heard about many women who helped build Chicago. The stories were full of interesting information told in the most entertaining way. If you are on a tour with her, be prepared to walk away with stories you have probably never heard. Thank you Mary Jo!!
