A river-to-lake sunset cruise from a family-owned operator.
Wendella has been cruising Chicago's waterways for generations, and their Sunset & Skyline Cruise is the relaxed way to end a summer day. The route glides from the river out onto Lake Michigan just as the skyline lights up and the sun drops behind the city — a classic Chicago view from a family-owned boat.
Good to know: Departs from the downtown riverfront. Ticketed — book ahead for sunset departures, which fill up. Bring a light layer for the lake.
