Join the Spirit of Chicago at Navy Pier for a two-hour cruise along Chicago’s magnificent lakefront with spectacular views of the city’s downtown including Adler Planetarium, Willis Tower (formerly Sears Tower), AT&T Corporate Center and the John Hancock Center.

After a quick stop for a commemorative boarding photo, your host will greet you and escort you to your table. Relax with a beverage or tour the ship's three climate-controlled decks. Watching the boat cast-off from one of the observation decks is a great way to start your afternoon cruise. Once you’ve been invited up to the Grande Buffet, take as little or as much as you like. You can even go back for seconds and thirds as long as the buffet is open!

While you dine, enjoy a fascinating narrated tour of Chicago’s breath-taking skyline easily seen from the huge panoramic windows. You’ll also be entertained by a wide range of music, from classic jazz to contemporary favourites and everything in between. The DJs know how to get everyone up and dancing, right to the end of your cruise. You can also stretch your legs and head topside for the largest outdoor patio deck in Chicago and catch a breath of fresh air and an amazing view. Spirit
