I was worried that I was too late because I entered at 9:30 PM, but it was a great observatory for viewing the night view, so I don't regret it.

Really enjoyed this experience - easy to find and perfect if you just want photos without getting off the boat. The staff are great also. There is a little shop on the boat where you can buy drinks/snacks and food and small gifts which is very cheap and it does take card payments. Would definitely recommend!

The performance is constantly full of jokes and touching. They will combine the interesting points of today's current affairs and put the actors in the story-telling performance, which is a bit like acting in a cartoon movie style, which is different from Chicago.

The tour guide is very humorous and considerate of the people in the same group. He likes that most of the group is international tourists. It is very interesting to get to know people from Germany, Russia and other European countries.

This is a good deal because I didn’t really want to go to so many sightseeing spots in the first place. Later, because I needed to use up the package I bought, I went to many places and had unexpected gains.
