About Chicago River Boat Architecture Tours

Chicago River Boat Architecture Tours offers expert-led cruises down the Chicago River focused on the city's architectural heritage. Visitors board boats at either 465 N McClurg Ct or Navy Pier, depending on tour length, and learn detailed histories and construction details of over 50 significant buildings lining the river. Tour guides are architects, architecture students, or architecture historians who provide in-depth explanations of Art Deco, Neo-Classical, and Gothic structures alongside modern skyscrapers. The company operates multiple options: a 90-minute complete experience, a 75-minute essential highlights tour, a night tour focused on city lights and architecture, and a 45-minute skyline lake tour. Additional themed cruises include cocktail and firework-viewing options. The tours run daily in Chicago, Illinois, with availability posted online. Children 6 and under are free, according to architecturetourchicago.com. The venue publishes admission prices online for other visitors.
