Well the numbers absolutely speak for itself... This place has been around since 1935, it is the best boat tour in Chicago you could take. Plus, they offer all sorts of different cruises and tours throughout the day. It is inexpensive too, great for visitors.... And even Chicagoans that want to get away and see something different.

Trip Advisor Reviews

Every aspect of this experience exceeded my expectations. Arriving and getting boarded was very simple and convenient. The staff was courteous and friendly. Once the tour began, our guide was extremely knowledgeable and his stories were amazing. The photo opportunities were so numerous that half of the photos I've taken this week were just on this short cruise. This is definitely the right choice for a sightseeing trip! Thanks Wendella for helping us make our trip so memorable! We'll definitely do it again next time we're in Chicago.

Even though we were born, raised, and continue to live in Chicago, we have made the Wendella Architectural tour on the river and lake a summer family field trip that we take every year! We always learn something new and truly enjoy the 90-minute tour. Always look forward to it and highly recommend it!
