  • Our Featured sort order ranks tours, activities, and experiences by several factors including the revenue generated by Tripadvisor from these bookings, your individual user browsing history and preferences while using Tripadvisor, the frequency of user clicks generally, and the volume and quality of customer reviews. Occasionally, newly listed offerings may be prioritized and appear higher in the list. The specific placement of these new listings may vary.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    We thought this was great value and provided some structure to our trip. We were there 9 days in total and used the pass to see 360 Chicago, skydeck, science museum, aquarium and boat tour. If I was getting it again I would probably do the field museum instead of the skydeck as it was a longer experience and I don’t feel the skydeck added much value. The architect tour is a must and we loved the science museum. We did one a day and filled the rest of our time with shopping, the zoo and looking at the parks which meant it was easier to budget. Definitely good value and will look to get them in future cities I visit

    Adam was a great tour guide and super knowledgeable and passionate about the Chicago beer scene. Had a really great experience and learned a lot. Would recommend for anyone looking for a day out and exploring some new places in the area.

    Definitely love being on the water tickets were easy to get and they have a military discount. You are sure to smile when you get on the deck and see the beautiful water

    My daughter and I had a wonderful time. Andrew was very knowledgeable and had a deep understanding of the economy and industry history of Chicago. We were hungry and he adjusted his tour so that we could eat at a local place. He also gave good advice about getting around town. Highly recommended!

    The tour was great and never dull. Brooke is just the best. I priorly had in me that Chicago deep dish pizza is a Giordano piece and Paisano is new . That Italian beef is a specialty that was brought into Chicago by the Italian migrants. Lastly i never thought that the word goat referring to how it is now was coined older than me.

    The self guided tour was great and filled with tons of information, both audio and visual. Sadly part of the park was closed on the day I opted to use mine but I was still able to learn and see quite a bit. Great way to fill an couple hours on your own.
