Chicago, Illinois | Rainy-Day Walking Tour from Downtown to Iconic Landmarks & Attractions
Welcome to Chicago! A rainy afternoon might not seem ideal, but it’s a good excuse as any to explore the Windy City’s vibrant attractions when you've only got one day!
For this trek, we set out on an unforgettable walking tour starting in Downtown Chicago. Our first stop: Queen’s Landing, a picturesque spot that offers stunning views of Lake Michigan. From there, we headed to the iconic Cloud Gate in Millennium Park, better known as "The Bean," a must-visit landmark and one of Chicago’s most photographed attractions.
Next, we followed the scenic Chicago Riverwalk (getting lost only once), making our way to Navy Pier. Along the route, we soaked in breathtaking views of the river and skyline before arriving at this lively hub filled with attractions, dining, and unmatched views of Lake Michigan.
Navigating the river crossings was an... adventure-first-time visitors, take note!
On our return, we braved the rain along the lakefront trails, and while the weather was damp, the shimmering city lights against the evening sky made it a truly magical experience. Whether you're visiting for a day or longer, this walk highlights the best of Chicago’s architecture, culture, and natural beauty.

Enjoyable tour, thanks for sharing your trip. 👍22, new friend here.
Thanks for watching!
My family and I love these videos. We put them up on our 75in TV and reminisce on our times on the ship. It's such a vibe, keep up the awesome work! We look forward to more
Thanks for the support! I'm glad you enjoy them. We'll have some more cities and a night walk of the Symphony for you soon!
I've long wanted to go on a Voyager-class and above ship, for the ice skating as much as the promenade view cabins. Someday.
Crossing my fingers for you! You'll get there!
Are you going to do wonder off the seas?
We don't have that ship booked at the moment, but we 100% will when we do! We do have walks of the Oasis and Allure, which are sister ships, if you want to check those out. They're not exactly the same but should have a similar layout.
@@SmallWorldTravelAmbiencegreat video as always keep it up.
Should someone tell RC that the lady is dancing to the music of Schindler's List (41:00)? Not joking...
Interesting to know. Please share the OST if you can.
@@SmallWorldTravelAmbience ua-cam.com/video/XNSsv86lsok/v-deo.html (30 seconds in)
These are not munchkins
It certainly takes creativity liberties. Still a fun show overall though.
Haha 🤣 Washie Washie were can I join this Cruise ship and will he be my Washie Washie?
Lol, your best bet is the Icon out of Port Miami, but they move him around. Good luck!
Excellent….now I don’t feel so bad about where I’m going and not getting lost.
I'm glad it was helpful!
They should’ve added an extra floor to the neighborhood so then the bar is two stories and an indoor pool where those suites are
The good news is the Icon ships also have the Cloud 9 which is another largely adult area; though not exclusive.
We were just on Allure and it's a great show. We watched it twice! All the skaters are amazing.
They really are! It's especially amazing when they do the show while the ship is rocking.
Great job. Fresh and unique interpretation. Margaret would be proud.
I wish we had more than clips.
Margaret Thatcher would be proud! Wonderful!
😅😅😅
was on the oasis of the seas, i watched this show 3 times
It really was fantastic!
@@SmallWorldTravelAmbience it was, which is why i watched it 3 times, and i'll watch it more on youtube
Tysm for uploading this. I just got off the ship yesterday and I’m already missing it so much. This is bringing back some good memories
I also saw them practicing for this on the last day of the cruise
Glad you enjoyed it!
Never delete this!
We've got no plans to! 😁
We saw this show in September, best show ever and I've been to 2 Cirque shows in Vegas, you can't miss this if you're cruising on ICON
It's amazing! Definitely one of the favorites.
watching replay
Replay as many times as you like! 😁

Thanks! Hope you enjoyed the ambience!
The oogie boogie is really boogie-in Also he looks like he about to burst out laughing
He might just bust a seam, now, if he don't die laughing first.
There's no Duke and Duchess... why??
Hmm. You know, I don't think I've ever seen them. Maybe I just missed them... 🤔
Omg one best Halloween back ground music. Having autism lot sounds drive me nuts. But this was amazing in back ground. Great for Halloween but also relaxing at same time. Thank you so much for taking time to make this
Thanks for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Happy Halloween! 🎃👻🎃👻
This is the best copy of the ride I've seen! Great job!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks!
Wow! Thanks so much!
was this the oct 18th sailing? if so, i was on it!
Hope you had a great time! This was Labor Day week.

Not too long until it looks like this again too! 😁
Hello, I was wondering how long it took you to walk to Philipsburg from the cruise port. It looks like a very long walk. My grandson and I will be going there in January 2026 and I will be using a wheelchair, we may have to do this walk.
Hmm, that would be a tough walk with a wheelchair, if I'm being honest. Most of the sidewalks are okay, but there are some parts that were very narrow or broken on the main road to Philipsburg. The walk recorded here is in real time with cuts only when I was checking a map. To get to the actual boardwalk and Front Street, you're looking at at least a 15 minute walk from the Cruise Port's exit. Probably 20-25 if you go straight from the dock. Hope that helps!
@@SmallWorldTravelAmbience That helps a lot thank you for the information.
@@ritalockett9788 No problem! Hope y'all have a great trip!
Love it
Thanks!
Omg rover is adorable I can’t get over her
I think she's 9 months in this video. Adorable. 🥰
Nice! Can you do independence of the seas at night?
Thanks! If we find ourselves on that ship, we most certainly will. Next ones on the docket are the Symphony and the upcoming Star!

I go on Nov 9th what day is this?
On which day
This was the first day. Sometimes they'll have extra lobster the day after lobster night in the main dining room too.
Thank you for this complete and perfect image upload 👍🏻
Thanks for watching!
Do they have fireworks every night in december?
They have for the last 2 years, as soon as they start doing the holiday stuff. This show ran multiple times per night, but I "think" they will have a new show this year.
I saw this show last night - it was just mind blowing. The talent and skill of these athletes/acrobats/models is unbelievable.
The water shows are always top notch!
I there before
That's awesome! I hope you had a great time!
That seems so quiet and peaceful! Alaska really is beautiful...
I highly recommend it as a cruise destination.
What a pier-fect day!
😅😅😅
Thanks for letting us SEA everything!
😂😂😂
That looks pretty sleek and modern 👍 I need to take my family on a train ride, if for nothing else, than just for the experience.
Absolutely. The Brightline was surprisingly nice!
@@SmallWorldTravelAmbience I haven't ridden a train in the longest time. It would be fun to go again, and to tour a sleek modern station.
That's sick you get to design your own vehicle, at least in the computer system!
Sadly, that may be gone now as Disney updates it to 3.0.
@@SmallWorldTravelAmbience I'd like to hope they will upgrade it to something better, but who knows...
I'm not sure I'll ever go back to Disney World with my family given how expensive it is and the need to plan trips months in advance, but if we ever do go there, I'd love to see this!
It's the best attraction at Hollywood Studios! But yeah, Disney has become rather overpriced....
@@SmallWorldTravelAmbience My current plan is to go once when each of our kids is in a good age range, perhaps five or so years from now. I've heard good things about the Disney cruises, so I'll probably check out that option as well in a few years.
@@PunmasterSTP The cruises are very nice, but rather expensive too. Unless you really want the Disney experience, you can get more for your money with Royal Caribbean imo.
@@smallworldambience2895 Thanks for telling me. I will keep that in mind.
Man, I haven't actually been in an airport in years. This one was fancy! Thanks for sharing your trip.
Thanks for watching!
@@SmallWorldTravelAmbience Hey no problem! I hope you didn't run into any trouble filming inside of an airport.
@@PunmasterSTP None at all! You just can't film at security.
@@smallworldambience2895 That’s good to hear.
