This half day bike rental allows you to explore Chicago at your own pace. Choose from a variety of attractions and create your own sightseeing itinerary to fit your whole family's interests and preferences.

Start cycling along the shores of Lake Michigan for gorgeous views of Navy Pier, featuring family-friendly attractions, entertainment, shopping and dining.

Continue to Millennium Park, a lively gathering spot that's home to Cloud Gate (The Bean). Stop here to take a photo of yourself reflected in the mirror of this famous bean-shaped sculpture!

Head north to Lincoln Park, a large lakeside community and park home to the Lincoln Park Zoo. Entrance is free, so you can hop off your bike to explore some amazing animal exhibits.

Further south, you’ll find Grant Park, whose Buckingham Fountain stands tall as one of the largest fountains in the world!

For a taste of Chicago’s passion for art and science, head to Museum Campus, a 57-acre (23-hectare) park on Lake Michigan that’s home to the Adler Planetarium, the Shedd Aquarium and the Field Museum of Natural History, as well as the Soldier Field football stadium.

Of course, you can’t miss Wrigley Field, where the Chicago Cubs play! After your independent bike tour, drop your bike off at the rental shop by 5pm.

Sorting, ranking, and search results

Activity name

City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
