Experience Chicago's Magic on a Sunset Boat Tour

IMG_3318 (1).jpg

There’s something special about watching the sun set over the Chicago skyline, and our Chicago sunset cruise lets you enjoy that moment from the best seat in the city. Our cruise is designed to give you a peaceful, laid-back experience as the city glows in warm evening light. 

 

With skyline silhouettes, shimmering lake waters, and golden-hour reflections, every Chicago sunset boat tour we operate is designed to showcase the city's beauty in a new light. You may even get lucky and catch a rare green flash, a natural optical phenomenon seen just as the sun dips below the horizon. Captain Bob has spotted 14 of them on Lake Michigan alone, something 99% of people on this planet haven’t seen!
