Itinerary

DAY 1: CHICAGO

Welcome to Chicago! Meet your Encore Tour Manager and check into your hotel. Tonight ascend 100 stories to the 360 Chicago Observatory for a panoramic view of the lakefront and the Chicago skyline. (D)

DAY 2: CHICAGO

During the morning city sightseeing tour, you will be introduced to Hyde Park, the home of Barack Obama and the University of Chicago, the Robie House, the Buckingham Fountain and the Bean. After lunch, visit the Field Museum of Natural History. Here you will have an afternoon concert performance! Then explore the museum. Whether you are most interested in learning about dinosaurs or ancient civilizations there is so much to see and experience. Tonight, have dinner as a group, then hear the world-renowned CSO in concert (In the event tickets are not available to a CSO Concert, this may be substituted with a Broadway production). (B,D)

DAY 3: DEPARTURE

Following breakfast, visit the Shedd Aquarium where the stunning architecture of the building is just as much worth paying attention to as the many aquatic animals and sea life. As no trip to Chicago can be complete without some time on the Magnificent Mile, spend some time here for last minute souvenirs before returning home. (B)
