GroupVerified booking3 weeks ago4/5Great time @ the 360 Chicago! It was a cloudy ⛅️ day, but were able to see for a good portion of our time there.AAngela B
GroupVerified booking4 days ago5/5I thought our guide Kandace was fantastic. She pointied out details on buildings, told stories about the cities history, and brought the fun to the ride. We did the 10am tour and circled the city before deciding what areas to explore. It was a great value and I would encourage anyone interested in learning about all the cool features Chicago has to take the ride. It did not dissapoint.GGerry P
