Explore the Midwest

Take the Train to Chicago, Illinois

Explore the Wonders of the Windy City

From the grandeur of Grant Park’s Buckingham Fountain to iconic museums and skyscrapers, see for yourself why Chicago was once dubbed “Paris on the Prairie.” Engage in retail therapy on the Magnificent Mile or root for any of this city's historic teams including the White Sox and Cubs, the Blackhawks, the Bears and the Bulls. Chicago will satisfy whatever you hunger for, from hot dogs and deep-dish pizza to culture and comedy. The Fields Museum contains over 24 million specimens and with only a small portion of them on display at any time, you're guaranteed to see something new whenever you visit. If aquatic animals are more your interest, the Shed Aquarium will introduce you to more than 32,500 animals from all over the world. A trip to Chicago would not be complete without visiting the Willis Tower, The Navy Pier and the John Hancock Center.
