Description:

Let the Windy City carry you away as you explore Chicago top to bottom, scoping out the city's must-see parks, can't-miss lake views, and iconic architecture on this half-day tour. From the Loop to Lincoln Park, keep your camera at the ready—Chi-town's a charmer!

After being picked up from your hotel, begin your ride through the skyscrapers of the Loop. Watch for fly balls popping high over Wrigley Field, check out the Picasso sculpture in Richard J. Daley Square, and cross over the Chicago River on one of the city's iconic bridges.

Pass by major cultural institutions on both the North and South Side like the Chicago Symphony, the Field Museum of Natural History, and the Art Institute of Chicago, renowned for its world-class collection of impressionist art. Get out and stretch your legs among the lagoons and flowers of the Lincoln Park Conservatory, and take in sweeping views over Lake Michigan from Museum Campus.

Ride along almost the entire length of the scenic Outer Drive, enjoy a verdant respite in the urban oasis of Grant Park, and keep your eyes toward the sky as you admire the John Hancock Building, listening to the history behind State Street and the Magnificent Mile. As you cruise along Wacker Drive—the double-decker thoroughfare beneath the city—listen as your guide shares expert insight on the history and vibrant culture of this Midwestern metropolis.
