When the tour driver got on the mic and explained sites that we were seeing at the time ! The drivers seemed to really love the city and lived to share their knowledge.

Our driver, Ricardo, was the bomb! So funny, great Chicago insights, repeated info so you didn’t miss your stop etc. I didn’t love the Big Bus process…they couldn’t accept our City Pass on the bus so we had to get on one to then get off to get a … paper ticket… in 2021…abs then wait in another bus to come…the poor ticket attendant had horrible service so it took forever to PRINT each one. Archaic. Thankfully Ricardo’s sunny attitude saved the day. Would recommend only if a gorgeous day and you’re in a patient mood.

The bus tour was amazing, this website will not allow me to upload pictures, says the file is too big! What I can tell you is that taking that bus tour in the evening can be extremely chilly, I was glad I had a jacket, wasn't cold enough for me not to enjoy it though. You definitely feel that Chicago wind on that upper deck in the evenings! The bus driver was knowledgeable and funny, and stopped and slowed down long enough for us to get pictures, I got great ones of the Chicago skyline, wish I could show them to you! Well worth the money. I would do it again!
