What to expect
The Chicago Theatre
This is where your Chicago tour begins - underneath the iconic neon sign made famous in both movies and musicals! Here, you'll meet your tour guide and then set off through bustling downtown Chicago.
Downtown / The Loop
Your tour takes place in this lively neighborhood of shopping, nightlife, performing arts institutions, and, of course, restaurants with the best food Chicago has to offer! Comprising mostly high-rises, the Loop is also home to the 108-story Willis Tower. The iconic “Cloud Gate” sculpture sits in Millennium Park. Grant Park features the large, rococo-style Buckingham Fountain and the renowned Art Institute of Chicago and hosts annual events like The Taste of Chicago and Lollapalooza.
Harold Washington Library Center
The Chicago Public Library's main branch features a mix of classic & modern architecture and a winter garden.
Willis Tower
The Willis Tower is a 110-story, 1,451-foot skyscraper in the Loop community area of Chicago. Designed by architect Bruce Graham and engineer Fazlur Rahman Khan of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, it opened in 1973 as the world's tallest building, a title that it held for nearly 25 years.
