What To Expect

Bobby's Bike Hike Chicago

The journey begins at the Bobby’s Bike Hike headquarters in Streeterville, where you’ll meet your terrifying and fun-loving tour guide! We will outfit you with a ready-to-ride Bobby’s bicycle, complete with front and rear lights to keep the group shining bright amidst the spooky darkness. Our fleet of comfort bikes makes riding a breeze, so you can keep your focus on the frights!

John Hancock Center

The tour will then set out to see the John Hancock Center, home of the city’s most prolific curses and tragic demise. It’s one of the tallest buildings in Chicago and has an equally steep history of disaster.

Chicago River

Next, the group will cruise over to the Chicago River, site of the horrific SS Eastland shipwreck, which killed more than twice as many people as the Great Chicago Fire.

Grant Park

ater, the frightening ride continues down to Grant Park and Museum Campus, two of Chicago’s most iconic waterfront parks. These centuries-old spaces are vast and haunting, the perfect place to share more ghost stories… including those of H.H. Holmes, a serial killer who preyed upon visitors to Chicago’s 1893 World’s Fair. Though his south-side murder castle has long been demolished, the spirits of his victims are still present all around.

Lake Michigan

The tour finishes with a lakeside ride back to Streeterville, passing the dark depths of Lake Michigan, home to countless deadly shipwrecks.

Navy Pier

On your way back, pass the bright facade of Navy Pier, which long stood abandoned after the Second World War, a perfect place for paranormal activity. The tour concludes back at the Bobby’s Bike Hike headquarters after three hours and countless frights! At this point, you’ll know why Bobby’s is Chicago’s favorite company for nighttime bicycle tours!

Great all round scenes of Chicago, lakeshore, city streets, under the L, around museums. The ghost stories were very informative and fun. I highly recommend it and I’d do it again!
