Despite being in the Midwest, Chicago sits surrounded by water. From its various rivers to the massive expanse of Lake Michigan, what better way to experience The Windy City than on a kayak? On offer are several tours, from the Architectural Tour to the City Lights Night Paddle and even a Fireworks Tour from Memorial Day till Labor Day! Each tour consists of approximately 8-10 people, all navigated by an expert tour guide. Chicago River, Montrose Beach, and North Avenue Beach are the three locations to set up a tour.

Tour Chicago from its main aquatic artery on a Chicago Line Architectural Cruise, taking in the sights in the birthplace of skyscrapers aboard a luxurious floating tour vessel. Starting at the North Side's Ogden Slip, guests are taken on a two hour informational tour of the city's prominent skyscrapers, bridges, and cultural history. The tour is great for tourists of any age, and comes with complimentary coffee, tea, soft drinks, and small baked goods.

This microbrewery and restaurant has made its way into the hearts of the people from Chicago and has become something of an institution. Although Goose Island Brewery serves great food, it is best known for its terrific selection of beers and ales. If you want to try something really special, order a bourbon stout. It is rich and creamy with a hint of chocolate. Be forewarned, these brews pull no punches. You will have to wait for a table if you are planning on staying for a meal, even on weekdays. If you are just coming for a drink, you can usually squeeze your way into the bar.
