Fun 4th of July early morning boat ride. The 8:30am time slot gets you out on the lake before any river traffic. It’s great!

Lara, of course you can go every weekend! And you are correct the 0830 tour is the best especially for photos.

This is an experience that should not be missed when visiting Chicago. Capt. Ken went above and beyond making sure our experience was memorable. A small group tour is definitely the way to go! At the last minute Capt. Ken was not available and Capt. Bob took us on our tour. He was very knowledgeable about the sites and buildings in Chicago and answered all our questions. We especially enjoyed going through the locks into Lake Michigan and zipping up and down the coastline. There was plenty of time for pictures along the way! When I return to Chicago I will be sure to take this tour again. Thanks for a great experience!!
