    The river tour was worth every penny. The tour guide was super knowledgeable and made the tour so much fun with his sense of humor. I highly recommended it if you are visiting Chicago.

    Really great tour. There are several right in this area, this one is solid. I can't speak to others but my parents have done Shoreline and one other and preferred Shoreline.

    The architecture tour from shoreline sightseeing was wonderful. The boat tour guide is knowledgeable. We went on a sunny day and sitting under the shade makes a huge difference!

    While on the top deck, don't set your drink on the ledge. It may fall onto a man on the bottom deck.
