This was a great experience! Easy to find, great views of the city, and the fireworks are almost on top of you! The ships crew was great, fun, and as accommodating as possible.
If you want the best view of the fireworks, get the VIP pass and get in line early (at least an hour to an hour and a half early). There isn't a bad seat to view the fireworks from, but there are some that are the best.
You can't use flash photography, so if you want to take pictures, have a phone or camera that has a nightscape option, or a longer exposure for getting better pictures without using flash. We used one phone's screen light to light up faces and took a picture with another phone.
A great overall experience, definitely worth taking visitors of Chicago to, but also worth doing if you live in the Chicago land area and have never done anything like this before.

Excellent review and great idea about the flash photography. As a safety issue for our Captains vision, we do request no flash photography at night. We hope you'll join us again for another fun evening!
