Everything, thats was the best highlight of the whole trip with picture perfect sunset and the whole skyline was really lit and amazing. I would do this everytime i am in Chicago a 100% 😊 Just one feedback: Please update the address pin you have , it took us to the otherside and we could have missed the cruise. The pin takes you to the chcling boat location not the actual first lady spot.

The tone of voice of the guide was very pleasant, he was knowledgeable and very courteous. Also, all the personnel seemed attentive, courteous and helpful. At sight I contacted 3 others at different points about my cruise.

Very nice relaxing cruise experience on the lake and river. Shoutout to Cole for the amazing tour. He was extremely knowledgeable about the city and it's history and was very charismatic.

The best thing about the cruise was how much information the staff knew. He was so thorough. The cruise at night was amazing and the drinks were great. Would definitely do it again cause I think I would learn even more.

The guide was amazing! He was very funny while being so informative and never crass. The sunset tour was beautiful and I thought it was very smart to offer sweatshirts in the lovely cabin. The bar staff was slammed but still so nice! Would definitely recommend to Chicago natives and out of towners!

We enjoyed the river cruise and enjoyed learning about the buildings around the river. The lake was nice too, but sitting on the ship while we waited to go out to the lake and then come back in was not fun. There was thunder and lightning to the north of us, and it was a bit scary to be stuck out on the lake waiting for the transition from the lake to the river.

The cruise was comfortable, and the guide amiable. However, I was expecting more architecture details (eg style, notable features) alongside the names of buildings.
