Fantastic views of the city. We got some great pics and videos. You get to see the massive size of the city and Lake Michigan. It was a little eerie to look out and not be able to distinguish where water and sky meet. The two seemed to blend into each other. You won't be disappointed!

The cloud bar is a must. The staff helpful even though I was 30 minute late to my appointed scheduled time. I want to give a shout out to my bartender. I don't know his name but he made me a great cocktail.

We did the admission plus Tilt. Tilt was an extra $9 per ticket and I am not sure it’s worth it. It was cool and we can say we did it but where it’s located you are just looking down onto some other buildings and nothing that’s special. It’s probably a 15 degree tilt and there are bars to hold onto which I admit I didn’t lean on the glass so you do feel that you are up 94 floors. I probably enjoyed the room with the screens open air more than tilt. Now walking around that floor looking out the glass of Chicago downtown, the suburbs, navy pier and Lake Michigan was so worth it and absolutely beautiful. You can see as far as the eye can see. Lake Michigan is impressive because it’s fresh water for miles until it and the horizon become one. It needs to be experienced just once since most can not afford to stay in a top floor apartment.

Great view of Chicago while enjoying a drink at the bar! Experience feels a bit dated compared to other viewing platforms we’ve visited (Summit NYC for eg) but with it nonetheless.

It can be found in a section of the city referred to as the “Magnificent Mile,” sometimes called the “Mag Mile” as well. it was the second-tallest building in the world upon completion in the year 1969.
it is home to some of the fastest elevators in the United States and allows visitors to reach the 95th floor from the ground level in just 38 seconds!
One of Chicago's most notable attractions is its skyline, and one of the best places to experience it is at the 360 CHICAGO Observation Deck. “360 Chicago Observation Deck.” It’s located on the 94th floor and at a height of 1,030 feet. it offers some of the most amazing views over the city of Chicago and Lake Michigan, allowing visitors to see a distance of over 80 miles (130 kilometers) and into 4 states in all directions!
Formerly known as the John Hancock Observatory, 360 CHICAGO towers 1,000 feet over The Magnificent Mile from its location on the 94th floor of the John Hancock Center (or 875 North Michigan Avenue as it is more formally known) - John Hancock
for an adrenaline rush, test out 360 CHICAGO's TILT. which gives visitors a unique view from more than 1,000 feet above the Magnificent Mile as they are tipped outward at an angle to look straight down from the glass enclosure.
Grab a cup of coffee, a glass of wine, or a snack at the Sky Cloud Cafe and bar, or look for souvenirs in the gift shop.
Facts:
The project was financed by John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company which was one of the initial tenants of the building as well.
As the company financed the project, it also acquired the naming rights but it expired in 2013, but hey we still call it by old name. Its official name is ' 875 North Michigan Avenue. The tower is occupied by some of the biggest companies like Best Buy, Starbucks, and Etihad Airways.

The tilt was fun & scary at the same time. Overlooking the whole city was amazing. Can’t wait to come back!

Requested refund and wasn’t granted it. I wasn’t able to make it. Due to business. Won’t use Viator to book any more reservations.

Compared to the Willis/Sears Tower, the Hancock has two advantages. Firstly, I think the view is a bit nicer, you can see a lot of the beach and the coast, which creates a nice contrast to the city. Secondly, there is a bar here that invites you to linger! We didn't book the TILT, it's a bit of a thrill, but you're limited to holding on, so you can't even take photos yourself. But I would recommend enjoying both views if possible, for example with the CityPass. It worked out wonderfully.
