The Wendella Chicago River Architecture Cruise exceeded expectations! The views alone are worth it—seeing the skyline from the river gives you a completely different perspective on the city’s design and history. What really made the experience stand out, though, was the tour guide. His knowledge was deep but easy to follow, not to mention funny! I believe his name was John, 10/10! If you’re even slightly interested in architecture—or just want a well-run, informative experience on the water—this is one of the better tours you can take in Chicago.

Spent my last day in Chicago with Jake and the Wendella team. The 45 minute tour truly superseded my expectations! I'm the last person that you would call a history buff, but I found myself mesmerized by how the city's taken shape over hundreds of years. Jake is truly an outstanding guide who loves what he does. He offered so much insight on the city's archeitrcture, changing landscapes, whimsical lore, and offered so many recommendations on food and nightlife in the city.

This tour came highly recommended by a local—and it absolutely delivered. Our guide was fantastic: knowledgeable, engaging, and even added a touch of humor and music along the way. The 90-minute sunset cruise was truly memorable. Learning about the city’s history and architecture while watching the sun reflect off the buildings along the river made for a stunning experience. Highly recommend.

We loved this cruise - so much interesting information from a chatty and informative host. We took our 5 and 7 year old kids who also really enjoyed this. The views are spectacular, you get to see sights on all 3 branches of the Chicago river. A great way to see Chiacgo and well worth the money, highly recommended.

I absolutely loved Alex and so happy to be on his 31117 tour yesterday. I would recommend everyone to do this your and Chicagoans to go at least once a year. The views are gorgeous, stories and history recap was amazing and entertaining. I love when I get visitors so we can go.

Although the weather was very cold, the speaker was so good that it left us forgetting how frigid the cold was. He was very knowledgeable on the history of Chicago and its buildings.
