Da sapere su questa attività
Imbarcati in una crociera lungo il fiume Chicago per conoscere e ammirare la famosa architettura della città grazie a una guida esperta. Imbarcati presso il Molo della Marina in un emozionante viaggio lungo tutti i tre rami del fiume Chicago per visitare i caratteristici edifici storici.
La crociera tocca più di 40 tappe, tra cui John Hancock Center, la sede Wrigley, Aon Center, Willis Tower (Sears Tower), la sede IBM e altro ancora. La guida esperta di architettura narrerà i due grandi eventi che hanno contribuito a creare la storia architettonica della città. Scoprirai come l'invenzione del "balloon framing", un sistema edilizio che sfrutta una leggera intelaiatura in legno, abbia rivoluzionato il metodo di costruzione delle case, e ascolterai la drammatica storia della rinascita di Chicago dal "Grande incendio" del 1871. Queste due pietre miliari hanno fatto sì che Chicago diventasse una delle culle dell'architettura americana moderna.
Lungo il percorso panoramico della durata di 75 minuti, vedrai edifici realizzati da architetti famosi in tutto il mondo, tra cui Mies van der Rohe, Helmut Jahn e Skidmore, Owings e Merrill (SOM). Questa gita sul fiume offre il miglior punto di osservazione per ammirare il caratteristico panorama della città e le architetture famose in tutto il mondo, mentre si apprende la storia affascinante di Chicago.

This is a must do. Just book it! Have done the tour with multiple friend groups visiting the city on conference trips. Such a good way to learn about and see the city without walking all the time. Great views and pictures.

The Chicago Architecture River Cruise is the best way to get the lay of the land in this huge city and to learn all about the variety of architectural designs that distinguish Chicago from any other major metropolitan destination. The tour guide made the trip fun and informative, and the large, open-air vessel featured plenty of seating, bathrooms, and a bar. Any spot is a good one for viewing the architecture, since you'll be looking mostly up. Several people recommended this tour to us, so I will highly recommend it to you. But try to choose a day with good weather!

My wife and I after many years of talking about it finally did it. Although we don't live that far from Chicago and we both worked in the loop years ago, we learned a lot on the cruise. It wasn't boring learning, it was fun and informative and nice to see the beautiful buildings and learn some history.

We unexpectedly had the highlight of our Chicago 5- day trip on the Architecture River Cruise! To thin that we almost missed it and it took 3 people recommending this tour is funny to us now because it was SO good, so fun and worth every penny. The speaker was entertaining, funny, and his sense of humor was perfect for all adults. Don't miss this tour!

The trip was excellent. The staff was friendly and the tour was enjoyable and informative. We got to learn some of Chicago's history and see some pretty cool architecture. The drinks at the bar were a little over-priced, but that is common to any tour similar to this one. We were allowed to take drinks and food on the tour, so if you don't want to pay for their drinks just bring your own.

So glad we chose to go. The Architectural Cruise was exceptional and informative with a lot of Chicago history. Under the stars in the evening breeze was very relaxing. Our tour guide, an architectural history grad student was great!

Upon our arrival to Chicago, we asked around what for a good touristy things to do. Several people suggested the Architect Tour. We went the next morning at 10am and what a beautiful way to start our vacation. It was fun and educational. And absolutely breathtaking! Highly recommend.

Wonderful river tour of Chicago’s downtown skyscrapers. We took the 7:45 pm tour which we found the perfect time to experience both daylight and dusk. There are 2 departure piers (East Michigan and East Grand) so make sure that you’re at the right place. Thankfully, the ticket office transferred our tickets to the nearest terminal. Great city experience!

Although architecture really isn't my area of interest, the host of the tour made it interesting, humorous and engaging...more than I thought I'd be. The fact that it was a beautiful day and I could sit down, rather than walking for more than an hour didn't hurt either. Reasonably priced and a nice way to see the city.

An informative tour. The tour guide was knowledgeable and kept the tour interesting. It takes you along the Chicago River so you get a nice view of all the buildings there. No problem with the tickets purchased from Viator.com. The meeting point is easy to find.

First of all - due to concerns about the weather, we wanted to change the date/time of our pre-booked tour and the company was brilliant - no fuss, no bother, just "yes, no problem". So I've bumped up the review to 5 stars for the service. The tour itself was great - our guide was very knowledgeable, clearly interested in his subject and full of enthusiasm, which meant that he carried his audience with him even if they weren't initially all that interested in architecture! We learned lots about architecture, the city and the river, and I would highly recommend this tour.
