Chicago Water Taxi and Riverwalk Tour
What better way to see Chicago's famous skyscrapers than on a short water taxi ride followed by a stroll along the Riverwalk. Avoid the packed tour boats and walk at your pace!
We start out with a 15 minute ride along the river using Chicago's Water Taxi service
After we disembark the boat we will walk along the Riverwalk taking in the beautiful architecture along the way.
I will discuss the design of each building, answer any questions you may have and time permitting perhaps go inside one of the skyscrapers.
You will have ample time to take pictures and we will end up returning to where we started.
