The Party Barge is a unique way to cruise the Chicago River. The boat features a u-shaped bar, surrounded by bar stools. The boat is equipped with a head (bathroom), USB charging ports, additional seating at the bow and coolers with ice. All cruises are BYOB, 120-minutes long and depart from the Chicago Riverwalk (between the LaSalle Street and Wells Street bridges).
