A guided boat tour on the Chicago River is an excellent experience to explore America’s third largest city, also called “City of Skyscrapers”. Grand Park and Millennium Park between Lake Michigan and downtown form a huge green with artwork, modern fountains, playgrounds, sports facilities and important museums. Strolling through the parks always gives you a great view of the skyline behind.
Chicago
Downtown, also called “The Loop“, is home to world-famous sculptures by Miro, Calder, Picasso and Chagall. Number one tourist attraction, however, is Navy Pier, the city’s waterfront destination and amusement district with Ferris Wheel.
