This is one of the most iconic and interesting tours in Chicago!

See all the art featured in Ferris Bueller's Day Off! In all seriousness, this is a fantastic art museum. See one of the finest examples of pointillism: A Sunday on La Grande Jatte by Georges Seurat. Monet is well represented, and there's currently a Georgia O'Keeffe exhibit featuring her earlier works. Don't miss the European Arms and Armor exhibit and Thorne Miniature Rooms.

This park is the city's crown jewel. Nestled between the skyscrapers of downtown Chicago and Lake Michigan, there's something for everyone. Lush gardens, large scale public art that invites you to interact with it, rotating art installations from up and coming artists, and free events at the Pritzker Pavilion with its "great lawn".

It's a zoo, great for younger kids.

High-tech driving range for all ages.

Indoor adventure park with trampolines, ropes courses, climbing walls, go-karts, bumper cars, and more.

Old-school mall, 9 minutes south of the hotel.

Old-fashioned bakery serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Situated right next to scenic Fox River and walking path.
