Things to Do

When you decide to visit the Windy City, you must take in the Architectural City and River Cruise. You may also be interested in additional adventures such as a tour of the Shedd Aquarium and Adler Planetarium, or the Art Institute. In all cases, you will travel in luxury in executive buses, which hold up to 55 passengers.

The Shedd Aquarium – One the worldʼs largest indoor aquariums, Chicagoʼs Shedd Aquarium is home to more than 1,500 species of fish, marine mammals, birds, snakes, and amphibians. The aquarium sits on the shores of Lake Michigan and is part of Chicagoʼs famous Museum Campus, which includes the Field Museum and Adler Planetarium.

The Adler Planetarium – Part of Chicagoʼs Museum Campus in Grant Park, the Adler Planetarium dates back to 1930 when Chicago businessman Max Adler opened it as the first planetarium in the western hemisphere. See its planetarium shows, celestial artifacts, and the immersive Grainger Sky Theater, which opened in 2011.

The Art Institute of Chicago is located in Chicagoʼs Grant Park, founded in 1879. This is the second largest art museum in the world and has 300,000 works. The growth of the collection has warranted several additions to the museumʼs 1893 building, which was constructed for the Worldʼs Columbian Exposition. There is so much to see when you come to Chicago, you might wish to extend your visit!
