10/10 Experience
This is the best way to see the city at night. I haven’t really gotten into watersports but saw this and thought I would give it a try. My partner loved it and we barely got wet. The floating DJ made it a vibe

Best Tour On Chicago River
This experience was a 10/10. The tour was super cool and the paddleboards are so easy to manuever with the motors. It really is no paddling required. You can chill, take in the skyline views, as the floating DJ sets the vibes behind the tour. The staff is super friendly and knowledgable on river safety. This is my girlfriends second time on a watercraft of any kind and she actually said she wants to come back again before the summer ends. We have to check out one their floating DJ sets on Sundays that features a local Chicago DJ.
