Chicago Tour & River Cruise

Enjoy a fully narrated driving tour of Chicago, the “City of Big Shoulders.”  Your guide will point out historic and significant sights. 

See the Memorial Water Wall at Soldier Field in honor of our veterans and the beautiful parks along Chicago’s magnificent lakefront. 

You will stop at Navy Pier, a former Navy training center that is now a hub of activity and fun for locals and visitors alike. Choose from several restaurants for lunch. Depending on the weather, you might enjoy dining and people-watching al fresco.

Then you will cruise the Chicago River while your guide fills you in on the architectural history of many of the city's awe-inspiring buildings. 

Back on land, you will travel down the 'Magnificent Mile" and view the landmark Water Tower – famous for having survived the great Chicago fire.

See the “Bean” in Millenium Park and enjoy more interesting outdoor art and beautiful floral-lined streets throughout the Loop.

Then, head back to DuPage County for an evening of fun and fine dining. Consider the Drury Lane Theatre which offers both  dinner and Broadway-style entertainment for an amazingly reasonable price.
