Absolutely fantastic boat excursion on the Chicago River! Very nice boat with a great crew eager to please! Bar service was excellent and the narration of the buildings and surrounding area was so informative. The guide also added local historical facts to the narration which was a great added bonus. I would highly recommend this cruise and this company for your Chicago River experience!

Chicago: 1.5-Hour Lake and River Architecture Cruise Reviewed by Rob, 10/31/2021

The guide was very informative! The boat was very spacious and clean! My friend and I were able to take food and drinks (not alcohol). It was beautiful! We went around 6 and we caught the sunset! Although, if you are going after 6, I strongly advise taking a thick warm jacket and boots bc it will be FREEZING cold to tourists who are not used to cold weather
