This tour really helps you appreciate the history behind Downtown Chicago. The hosts tell stories of how these buildings came to be, fun facts and cracks jokes here and there. We recommend to check the forecast and dress accordingly. Overall, if you have been living in Chicago all your life, or just visiting for the weekend, you have to try this tour at least once.
This place is beautiful....but hot and humid. As you can expect, the Conservatory has to keep the climate like that so the plants can thrive. In fact, it's one of the largest botanical conservatories in the nation. You'll see many exotic plant species, a huge koi pond, and a family of turtles. It's a great activity for all you horticulturalist plant lovers, or just a fun date idea. Oh, plus it's free =)
