Chicago for first-timers

The 90 minute Architectural Cruise was surprisingly relaxing. The announcer was wonderful, with his extensive knowledge of Chicago's architecture visible from the barge. I especially loved his lighthearted delivery style. The view of the buildings was great, unobstructed from any part of the barge.

The 45-minute Lake Michigan sunset cruise was amazing!! The views of the Chicago skyline at sunset were beautiful, and the whole cruise was very relaxing and enjoyable. Shoreline organized everything really well, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Definitely a great way to experience Chicago from the water!

Excellent service from the staff, punctuality, and a great way to see the city from the highest point in Chicago

The cruise was phenomenal. The sites themselves were well chosen for a shorter tour (I did one of the full length ones before) and the guide was knowledgeable, passionate and amusing. Not to mention that it was incredibly affordable. Even my skeptical friend who I dragged along for the experience had a blast. . I highly recommend this tour!

The entire outing on the cruise from start to finish was amazing!! The scenery, the buildings, the sights... every single thing was jaw dropping. Relaxing and fun way to see the city from a different perspective. Great operation from start to finish... and we will definitely do it again!!

The guide was amazing! He was very funny while being so informative and never crass. The sunset tour was beautiful and I thought it was very smart to offer sweatshirts in the lovely cabin. The bar staff was slammed but still so nice! Would definitely recommend to Chicago natives and out of towners!
