I have family that live in Chicago and more that live nearby. We keep saying we're going to do the architecture tour but we haven't done it yet. I've heard good things. Would you say it's worthwhile? We got a Groupon deal on a Chicago mob tour several years ago and had a good time.
Yes I thought it was worth it. All those skyscrapers have architectural easter eggs that you can only see from the river. Everyone on the boat groaned when we came around a bend and you could see the giant TRUMP sign on his building. Someone from the Chicago Architectural Society narrates the history via mic and pa system. If you do the trip make sure to bring a jacket its cold on the river even in the summer.
Thank you! I definitely need to get us together to do it. The focus right now is my nephew's recent cancer diagnosis, but maybe next summer would be a good time. We used to do a Sibling Day in Chicago every summer, but we haven't been able to do it for the last couple of years for health reasons. I'll try suggesting it for next summer.
