Whether you're scoping out the city from on-high at the Hancock Building Observatory, or bargain-hunting along the Magnificent Mile, you'll find no shortage of ways to fill up your days in Chicago.
Museum lovers will be in heaven in the Windy City. Check out the world-class collection at the Art Institute of Chicago, or the paleontological treasures at the Field Museum. Hop a Chicago Trolley Tour to check out the highlights of the city, from Wrigley Field to ""The Bean"" at Millennium Park, or take in the city via waterway with Wendella Boats.
Chicago offers plenty of family-friendly recreation, from the retail offerings lining the Magnificent Mile, to the free-admission Lincoln Park Zoo. Adults might want to leave the kids behind for a night out at Second City, the renowned improv club that's jumpstarted the careers of comic legends like Bill Murray and Tina Fey.
