★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 5 reviews · 1 to 2 hours (approx.) · from $14Best value

Review of Chicago’s $14.99 self-guided Millennium Park tour, covering Cloud Gate, Crown Fountain, Lurie Garden, and Nichols Bridgeway offline.

“Self paced walking tour so we could stop & listen, check side info. or just stop for a hot dog and lemonade between spots. Only complaint is when it says only run the tour, it really is only the tour. The couple times I toggled over to take a photo it stopped & I had to re-start it. No big deal, it picked up with where we were.”

“I booked this tour 4 weeks in advanced, paid in full early, received confirmation with tickets that confirmed date, time and location for meet up. My work team that flew in from various states, including my executive waited 40 mins and the tour person was a no show. I tried calling several times and only received a voice mail. Then I tried emailing, no response was received. I was so embarrassed and was left without a plan for a large group of leaders.
