My brother and I took this lunch cruise when we visited Chicago for a football game. For me personally this turned out to be the highlight of our trip. From the food, to the service, to the views, it was one of the best experiences I've ever had. The check in at the docks was quick and they get you loaded on to the ship very quickly, although I would recommend showing up a little early to your depart time, so that way you can find which ship you'll be going on. Almost as soon as we were seated, we were greeted by our server (Ashley was amazing!), took our drink order and we could start getting our food at the buffet well before the ship took off. You can travel all over the ship and go outside and enjoy the weather and the views, or you can enjoy the music and dancing inside the main cabin. The DJ played a wide range in variety of music which was great. I can't say enough good things about the food. I'll attach pictures to this post but even that doesn't do it justice. There's not many things I've done where I don't have a single complaint, but this is one of them, absolutely amazing experience!

The food, drinks and service were wonderful and the trip on the water was enhanced by a perfect sunny day.

Delicious food, Gorgeous view of the skyline. The only thing I didn't like is the price! I paid $191, but my receipt showed I paid $156.
