Unforgetable team bonding experience with lunch. We enjoyed premium food and drinks, very attentive and accomadating staff who made sure all of our needs were met. The city looked beautiful from the river, the architect narration was informative and we didn't miss any points of interest. Truly a high end, relaxing experience and the best architect tour in the city.

Food was amazing. Great service. Very comfortable boat. Overall a wonderful lunch boat cruise - definitely recommend.

Linda_H

The boat was great. Very clean and the glass surrounding was easy to see out. However the sound system was hard to hear and if your back is to the bow of ship, you have to keep turning around to see the buildings that are being talked about. Our server, Aden, was a gem.

Annette_S

Jerry_M

Friends and relatives had recommended a Chicago river cruise as a great thing to do in Chicago and we decided on a lunch cruise with Odyssey. The service and meal we received was very good! The Guide pointed out several landmark buildings that we would have missed without them. Enjoyed the cruise immensely and have dozens of pictures to document the occasion.

Linda_M

Linda_Y

We had a beautiful fall day. The boat was very clean and tables were spaced out in such a way that we did not feel crowded. Food was excellent - better than we were expecting! Tour guide was great. Very nice glass enclosure to protect from cold and wind as needed. We enjoyed being able to step outside for photos as well.
