Tours & Boats

Tours & Boats We specialize in river tours from engaging guides, offering fun and informed boat tours of Chicago's famous architecture.
(198)

To fully experience Chicago is to understand its architectural history from the ground up. Tours & Boats is rooted in a mission to continue celebrating the beauty of our city from the best seats possible. Our 90-minute boat tours are some of Chicago’s longest and most explorative tours, offering a chance to connect with the Windy City in a more involved and informed way. Gather your group, inquire

about discounts, and look forward to a comfortable, air-conditioned ride. The sights of Chicago’s beautifully engineered streets are best observed from the equally gorgeous waters that neighbor them.
