Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for kids on this Chicago tour? Thinking about getting this for my family.

A: There’s no strict age limit, but I’d say it’s great for kids who are at least 5 or so. They’ll get bored waiting if they're too young. The tour is designed to be family-friendly, so there are plenty of stops that kids might enjoy, especially Millennium Park with 'The Bean'.

Q: Can we reschedule if the weather is bad? I don’t want to waste my money!

A: Absolutely! They’re pretty understanding about weather issues. If it’s raining or something serious, you can usually reschedule for another day without any extra fees. Just make sure to call ahead and they’ll help you out.

Q: What should I wear for the Architecture River Cruise? Is it fancy or casual?

A: Casual is totally fine! Most people wear comfy clothes since you’ll be outside for a bit on the boat. Just check the weather; layers are key! If it's windy, a light jacket is a good idea. You'll want to be comfortable for the cruise and the tour.

Thinking of giving the Chicago City Tour as a gift! Thoughts?

Hey everyone! I'm considering this Chicago City Tour with the architecture boat cruise for my sister’s birthday. She loves architecture and this seems perfect! I read that the guide is really knowledgeable and that there are great views from the boat. Has anyone done this? How was the experience?

Anyone know how parking works for the Chicago City Tour?

I really want to surprise my partner with this tour, but I’m worried about parking in downtown Chicago. Is there easy parking by the meeting spot? Any tips on where to park or just public transport recommendations?
