    Three of us had a great tour this summer. It was warm, so they flew with the doors off, giving us…read morean unobstructed view. From Schaumburg,we flew to roughly where the highways 290, 294 and 88 meet, then followed the Eisenhower expressway east to downtown. We flew south to McCormick convention center, then flew up the shoreline, past Grant park and Navy Pier. Over Lincoln Park we headed inland, passing over Wriggly Field before heading south, back to the Eisenhower, which we followed back west, retracing our original path. Total flight time was around 45 minutes, which is much longer than a tour from a downtown heliport. As we were getting briefed initially, we were asked if we wanted mild or extreme. We answered extreme, and we found out what that meant when we neared the airport on our return. The pilot made a series of extreme banks (90 degrees?, and remember, no doors). One of our party thought it was great, the other was not so happy. The helicopter is the smaller 4-person model. The pilot determines who sits where for weight distribution. You get the best view of the sights on the left side. Somehow, we missed the warning to bring a light jacket and you may want to wear long pants With the doors off, it gets windy. Imagine riding down the highway at 100 mph in a car with no doors, and you get the idea; remember, though, that you are at altitude, and it is cooler than ground level. We didn't have any jackets, but it was warm enough that the trip was tolerable. However, a jacket would have made it more comfortable, and I was glad I wore jeans. You will be warned not to bring anything that could fall out of the open door, hit the rear rotor and cause a crash. Lock in your car anything you don't absolutely need . They don't want camera bags (too many loose items). If you bring a camera, make sure it has a wrist strap. We enjoyed the flight, and I recommend it.

    Costlier than its counterpart (because I sat in the back of the introductory pilot leason for my…read moreother half's surprise birthday gift) but a really good time. Had some communication issues in the beginning which was a little frustrating and our flight did not start as scheduled (30-45 min after) but in the end the owner is friendly and nice. The pilot was fun and entertaining as well. Did some tricks, giggled a lot, hovered in front of the restaurant window, and chatted in the end. They have a restaurant/bar at the airport with a flight/aviation-theme of course. We just took two coffees pre-flight which were actually pretty good there.

    Chicago Walking Tour - Elevated Architecture Downtown 'L' Train…read moreWe have previously taken the CAC boat tour and one of the surface walking tours (both of which were great), but this time we wanted something with a slightly different perspective while staying downtown. We chose the Elevated Architecture Downtown 'L' Train tour led by Andrew, our CAC docent. As no one else had signed up for the tour that morning, it became a private tour. Andrew was not only very knowledgeable about the architecture and friendly, but also, given that he works in planning at the Chicago Metro, was able to take us on an even deeper dive concerning the "L", its history, and some of the current challenges. As we were about 35' about street level for the tour, we were also treated to a different perspective of the building and their design/decoration, something that cannot be readily observed from street level. Thans again to Andrew for an information and entertaining tour above the streets of downtown Chicago-truly a unique experience.

    If you're in Chiago you have to do the Architecture tour at least once. If you're in Chicago…read moreduring the Summer as I was you can seek sanctuary in the air conditioned lower level. I wish the audio was a little bit louder on that level due to the sound of the fans and people talking. If you like my reviews, consider "following" my profile for reviews all across the SF Bay Area . Why "follow" someone? It causes the person you follow's reviews to tier to top when you pull up a business. I find this very handy when researching venues. Rod's Review grading scale explained. Essentially I personally base it on the likelihood of a return visit and I try to be stingy with 5 star reviews since they should be "special" in my eyes. Price/Value also play a role obviously but there are $ and $$$$ littered across my grading scale. 5 stars - "I'll go out of my way" (approx 6 % of my reviews) 4 stars- "If I was in the area I'd go here and would recommend", (approx 38% of my reviews) 3 stars "Maybe if was nearby", (approx 37% of my reviews) 2 stars -"Would likely not return, Only if you want to go", (approx 16% of my reviews) 1 star -"No thanks, even if I was hungry", (approx. 3 % of my reviews)
