    My 1st time to Chicago, everyone I talked to who'd been there mentioned the Architecture Tour was a must. They were not wrong! The guide was a great mix of really intersting information and light humor so the 90 minutes flew by.

    Explanation was excellent. I loved the way he interacted with people. Lot of laughing! We waved people besides the river and it was fun. And the view was incredible!! A beautiful city!

    Only a cruise like this one lets you take such beautiful photos of Chicago at night. Beyond the cruise itself, there was a great atmosphere on board thanks to the wonderful crew. I highly recommend it!

    Honestly the cruise was great but the guide Scotty D was incredible. He was fun, knowledgeable, and engaging. The cruise was a good mix of architecture and lake views, timely, and comfortable.

    The observation deck is high enough to view the whole city, also close enough to the water/beach to enjoy the beautiful blues.

    The experience was more than amazing. I'm from out of town and learned so much about Chicago and its history. The tour guide was phenomenal. The river, the buildings and architecture was beautiful. I would highly recommend going if you haven't.
