Chicago: Riverwalk Self-Guided Walking Tour

Experience the magic of Chicago's Riverwalk, a sparkling gem stretching from the azure waters of Lake Michigan all the way to bustling Franklin Street. Known fondly as the city's 'Second Lakefront', the Riverwalk comes alive with riverside restaurants in the summer, inviting lounging areas, boat rentals, and amphitheater-style seating for a variety of performances.

The Riverwalk is also home to the poignant Vietnam Veterans Memorial Plaza and the fascinating McCormick Bridgehouse & Chicago River Museum. With a dash of luck, witness the awe-inspiring sight of a bridge lift right from inside the bridge house!
