I cannot choose just one experience. The entire experience was wonderful. This was actually my first time on a boat/charter of any capacity and I enjoyed my time. The narrator/instructor, John was amazing. He made the tour so lively and fun and I learned so much about the architecture and buildings. My mom came to visit me for the first time since I relocated to Chicago and I thought it would be pretty cool to do and I am so glad we did even though it started to rain a bit. We enjoyed the experience and would love to do it again!

Our tour guy named Zach and he was phenomenal. His sense of humor and knowledge of the Chicago skylines architectural history are second to none.

If you are taking a tour with a big youth group and want everyone to learn and retain the architectural history of Chicago buildings we highly recommend having a tour guy like Zach. It is hard to determine if you can choose a particular tour guy. However, our group had a great experience and we hope you’ll have the same.

Our 45 minutes architectural boat ride with the Lila Wendella for $28 dollar per person was a well paid for trip.

Totally worth the $$
It gives you the vibes of Chicago
Boats are nice . Views are clear irrespective of where you sit. There a snack bar at the bottom you can buy snacks and drinks.
