WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Lakefront Trail
The 18-mile Lakefront Trail has been contributing to Chicago’s cycle success since 1963. The paved path provides walkers, runners, and bicyclists with a safe and fun way to travel along the Lake Michigan, for both recreation and commuting.
2. Field Museum
The Field Museum of Natural History is one of the largest museums in the world, famous for its expansive specimen and artifact collect. It’s also home to T-Rex Sue, the biggest tyrannosaurus rex ever fully recovered.
3. Shedd Aquarium
Shedd Aquarium opened in 1930 and is now home to 32,000 aquatic animals. It is one of the largest aquariums in the country, and the first inland museum to house a collection of saltwater fish.
4. Adler Planetarium
The Adler Planetarium is the oldest planetarium in the Western Hemisphere. It boasts three full-sized theatres, rotating space science exhibitions, and an extensive collection of space science instruments and materials.

Built in 1924, Soldier Field is the oldest NFL stadium in the United States. During the American football season, it’s the home of our roaring Chicago Bears, but the park also hosts some of the city’s biggest concerts in the spring and summer.

12th Street Beach is a hidden gem of the South Loop. White sands, clear blue freshwater, and close proximity to Northerly Island make this beach on of the Windy City’s best kept secrets.

Fantastic tour - we visited diverse parts of the city and even went off the beaten track to a nature reserve you would never know about otherwise. Our guide Jay was really engaging and we had a good overview of everything we saw. Really easy and safe riding on the flat. Great views of the Lake as well. Highly recommended.

We just completed this tour with Joe. It was a wonderful way to spend a morning. We saw many sites we would not have been able to cover on foot. Joe was engaging and informative and very concerned about our safety. He gave great clear instructions and we never felt unsafe. We learned lots of interesting facts about Chicago and just had fun. Thanks so much.

A fabulous tour, really informative guide in Joe, who made it a fun 3 hours. For someone who is not used to cycling through a city, Joe ensured we were completely safe and at ease at all times. Most of the tour off main roads or on cycle lanes - so absolutely fine for all.
Saw some parts of Chicago I never knew existed, and amazing views of the city.
Bikes themselves v good (mine was virtually brand new) and well prepared.
Highly recommended.

Our tour was guided by T, who was very entertaining and knowledgeable. We had beautiful weather and were able to see numerous landmarks throughout the city. I highly recommend this tour, as it is a great way to see the city. You don't need to be an avid bicyclist to do it, as the paths are mostly flat. At the very beginning, we rode on a few city streets that didn't have bike lanes, but the remaining 90% of the ride was on streets with bike lanes or paths designed exclusively for walkers and bicyclists. The bike was easy to ride. The tour was a lot of fun, and I learned a lot of good Chicago history! Thanks, T!
