What an amazing time with the family on this private excursion run by Capt. Ken! We did a similar tour in NYC with NY Media Boats which Ken previously worked with. That trip was a 10/10, and this was just as magnificent. Capt. Ken has 20 years of experience with the Coast Guard, and he did a fantastic job safely navigating the boat up the Chicago River, giving interesting details about the buildings & history of the city. We got to see the lock system where the Chicago River meets Lake Michigan, and after getting out on the lake, Capt. Ken opened up the motor & gave us the most spectacular views (at sunset) of one of the United States' most iconic skylines in Chicago. My kids and wife had the time of our lives! This was the highlight of our amazing trip. We will recommend this to friends/family & will be back next time we're in Chicago!

Fantastic experience! Kenny was a great tour guide and captain! If you are looking for a fun ride with interesting facts about Chicago, schedule a Blackhawk Boat Tour! Better than the big city boat tours that are overcrowded and overpriced. Come for a personalized adventure!

The tour was amazing! I learned a lot and had so much fun. It was especially fun to go outside the river and on to Michigan lake. The view was gorgeous and perfect for pictures.
