Things to do in Chicago - Mercury the Skyline Cruiseline

This is an interesting way of  getting to know some  interesting history of the city but also to get outstanding post card views from the boat. Depending on the time of  year there are different  tour options to choose from. Typically, two types of cruises are available:
-    the First Lady – for tourists anxious to exerience informative cruise with focus on Chicago Architecture,
-    the Mercury  - for these tourists that seek regular sightseeing oportunities and entertainment
Leaving at different times throughout the day, it takes  about 60/90/120 minutes for the cruiser to  traverse the lakefront and the river. The cruises start at  the south bank of the Chicago River, at  Lower Wacker Drive, and  Michigan Avenue. Tickets can be purchased one hour before departure, there is no need for earlier reservations. Both of the rides are relaxing and an attractive way to explore Chicago.
