Went on a cold winter's day in early October. Was very enjoyable and the boat had a warm level when we got too cold on the top deck. Great narration with many insights about the history of this great city.

Great tour. Even the 18 year old enjoyed it. It was informative in an interesting way. I think the length of the tour is just right.

It was a great boat trip up and down the Chicago river, with discussion of the architecture and history of the important buildings in downtown Chicago. The whole family enjoyed it, but it was very cold.

Our tour guide, Victor, is very knowledgeable about the buildings and kept a running dialogue the whole time. We enjoyed the experience! It was nice to see the city around sunset when the lights come on.
