Private Tour of the Chicago Riverwalk

On this tour, we're going to take a closer look at the modern and contemporaneous skyscrapers that sit along the Chicago River, with their different stylistic approach in order to compliment the natural setting of the river and Lake Michigan, an essential part in the establishment of one of the largest cities in the country. I will share stories about some of these constructions, contrasting buildings that are over a hundred years old with the most modern ones equipped with the latest in technology available so far. This tour will require to walk approximately at least 1.5 miles -2.41 kms-, so comfortable footwear is highly recommended, as well as a light jacket, depending on the weather. That being said, the river offers a vast area for a brief rest if so desired, in addition to many places for refreshments or snacks.
