Step Back in Time: Chicago Prohibition Tours

Getting There

• Car

  If you are driving, start by getting onto I-90 W/I-94 W from your location in Northeastern Illinois. Follow the signs for I-90 W/I-94 W towards Chicago. Depending on your starting point, this may involve taking various local roads to reach the on-ramps. Once on the expressway, continue driving for approximately 30-45 minutes (depending on traffic) until you reach the downtown Chicago area. Take the exit for Congress Pkwy and follow it until you reach the intersection with Wacker Dr. Turn left onto N Wacker Dr, where you will find Chicago Prohibition Tours located at 27 N Wacker Dr #126. There is street parking available, but it may incur a fee (approximately $2-4 per hour).

• Public Transportation (Train)

  If you prefer public transportation, you can take the Metra train from various stations in Northeastern Illinois. For instance, if you are near the Metra station in your area, board the Union Pacific North or Northwest Line train heading towards Chicago. Once you arrive at the Ogilvie Transportation Center (OTC) in downtown Chicago, exit the station and head east on W Washington Blvd. Turn left onto N Wacker Dr and walk approximately 5 minutes to reach 27 N Wacker Dr #126, where Chicago Prohibition Tours is located. Note that a one-way ticket on Metra costs about $5-10, depending on your departure station.

• Public Transportation (Bus)

  For those using the bus, check the local Pace bus routes that connect to the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) system. You can take a Pace bus to a CTA station, such as the Blue Line or Brown Line. Once you reach a CTA station in downtown Chicago, disembark and walk towards the Chicago River. Follow the river to N Wacker Dr and turn south. Continue walking for about 10 minutes until you reach 27 N Wacker Dr #126. Bus fares vary but are typically around $2-3 for a one-way trip.
