Beautiful and fun for the whole family. The architectural tour was informative and gave us a new and unique view of the city that can’t be experienced walking the streets. Definitely family-friendly (we had 5 children ages 1 - 12 with us) but educational for history buffs and students alike. The crew was friendly and helpful from the start at the ticket kiosk through the cruise, as well as at the souvenir photo stand. We would definitely take this tour again!

The staff was friendly and courteous. The tour of Chicago’s skyline was breathtaking. It made me see the beauty of my home town. I highly recommend this tour, especially with the fireworks and it was quite inexpensive. Worth it!!

I loved the architecture river boat tour! I learned so much. I took my two teen age daughters and thought they wouldn't really be paying attention to the history. However, to my supprise, they we're fully engaged in what was said and when we came home they told me about all the cool things that they learned. I highly recommend Shoreline sightseeing to anybody at any age. I completely enjoyed my tour and I'm more than happy to say that my teenage daughters did as well. It was a wonderful afternoon well spent with mother and d... read more

What a GREAT tour! Enjoyed the 70+ minute, highly informative and interesting tour on July 28th at 1pm. Jim, our emcee was extremely knowledgeable, and his well paced delivery of descriptions, facts, and interesting side-stories made this the BEST guided tour I have taken in the last 10 years!!
