Navy Pier Tour
Chicago's Navy Pier is the most popular tourist attraction in the state of Illinois. While busiest in the summer, its family friendly atmosphere draws visitors all year long. Navy Pier has a variety of shops and restaurants, an IMAX theater, an oasis called the Crystal Gardens, boat rides, Bike and Roll bicycle rentals, a gigantic Ferris Wheel (and other carnival like rides), mini golf and an outdoor beer garden. Navy Pier is the home to the acclaimed Chicago Shakespeare Theater, as well as the Smith Museum of Stained Glass Windows. Given the large interior spaces which run down the center of the pier, this is truly a year-round destination. There are haunted houses in October, Santa in November and December and indoor events throughout the winter. The main attraction, though, is the outdoor promenade (called Dock Street) on the south side of Navy Pier. (Approximate distance of walking tour: 0.75 miles.)
