Our tour guide was the best we've had, hands down. She unequivocally knew her history and kept us all engaged! Her esprit de corps is unparalleled and should be recognized! Others in the industry should emulate her enthusiasm and wealth of knowledge "before" they clock in. My wife and I had monotone tour guides basically reading from their notes and it ended up being a waste of money to include a boring experience! Promote her please!

Our guide,Tess, was fantastic! We were lucky to be visiting on a beautiful day - sunny and in the high 30s (not bad for a February). I was glad I had dressed appropriately for the temperature -- the boat also has a heated main cabin so I could have gone there if I had ever gotten too cold. I am so glad I did this tour and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the beautiful city of Chicago.

I absolutely loved this tour! The JBL speakers were fantastic and made it so easy to hear the guide clearly, even in a busy and noisy environment. The tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and shared information in such a fun, engaging, and effortless way that it really stayed with me. I still remember interesting facts like the Chicago River being 22 feet wide and how it turns green on St. Patrick’s Day. The clear sound from the JBL speakers and the amazing guide together made this tour truly memorable and enjoyable.
