Hey Robert! I live in Chicago. Thank you for coming! You took some of the best video I've seen of Chicago. You did the city proud. I cringed when you said Willis Tower, but then you included "Sears," so we're good. LOL!!
Hello again, and just WOW, Robert. I stumbled upon your channel merely looking for the Winnebago travel trailer review (which was great itself), but I am really amazed (again) at how good you are with these videos! The cinematography is excellent. The editing is excellent. The choice (and volume) of background music is excellent. The subject matter is excellent and well-chosen. You have me wanting to plan a similar trip, now. Also, your narration is excellent! Not only do you have a great voice for narration, but you do a good job of giving a little bit (not too much) of history/background of the things you are filming. Gee, I'm impressed. There are so many garbage UA-cam travel channels, but you are amongst the top! I also like the links to the places you ate and tours you took, in the notes. Bravo! 19,209 subscribers as I write this, but I see a whole lot more in your future! :)
Thank you for your fabulous videos I can't stop watching them ,every time I watch them I keep counting the days till retirement and just hit the road in a Roadtrek or Chinook
I recently discovered Traveling Robert and his fabulous videos and music. Like him putting a sticker on each state he visits, I am going to post this comment on all the videos I watch! You da man, Robert!!
I attended college in downtown Chicago, right next to the loop. You are right, it is an amazing town. I try and go back at least once a year and have taken my RV there twice now (but I driveway surf). There are so many amazing things to see and do, you could easily stay a week or more. Thanks for sharing, I think you captured the city very well.
I am really enjoying all of your videos! But thank you so much for making my city look so good. You have really captured what we natives know and love about the city. I feel blessed to be able to spend every day there. Please come back again soon!
Chicago is one of the greatest cities I have ever been. So much to do everywhere you turn, summertime in Chicago is also amazing. Very clean, things happening all hours of the day and night, and great for the tourists.
Thank you, Robert. Just back from Chicago in March 2023 - the city is great in downtown, outside it’s a bit depressive. And it’s cold. But Art museum is fantastic and some restaurants as well.
Robert, your enthusiasm, cheerfulness and sense of humor are contagious. Love your videos. This is a wonderful look at the highlights of Chicago. Extremely fun to watch. The building you showed at 3:10 was the tallest in the city when I was young in the 1950's. A little shrimp among the giant whales now! Loved seeing Wrigley. This is a great year to be a Cubbie fan. Can't wait to see your St. Louis visit, too. Keep up your outstanding work. We all love it.
I agree with Tanya, you did the city proud. We have a bad rep for violence, but I've lived here 37 years and I've never seen it. Thank you for showing the good side.
A lovely Place Chicago Illinois perhaps I will go there sometime and look in that a big mirror thing such a fascinating City wow amazing skyscrapers beautiful Waters great presentation Robert God bless you
Time just flew by watching this video.....and I was left wanting more!! haha That was a lovely vlog and Chicago is really beautiful!!! Awaiting your next....
Oh yes ,Chitown,love that place,have been a few times,but still learned one or two things from this video,hopefully next time,great footage,thanx for sharing.
Fantastic night view of the city.......so beautiful....makes me wish I had an apt. in one of those buildings......you did an amazing job....thank you so much.
My son help fabricate the bleachers across from Wrigley Field/Cubs Park @ 21:24. He installed them himself. I used to work at the Equitable building across from the Wrigley building. I'd get almost blown away crossing the bridge during the winter. Not called "the windy city" for nothing. Wow, you were there nearing the playoffs. Watched til the very end and see that you weren't. HEY, DIDN'T KNOW THAT WAS YOUR SONG AND YOU SINGING. VERY TALENTED. New sub here. Thanks for the memories.
What a beautiful 4K video from Chicago . We watched this video on our 4k TV . Nice sharp images and pictures. What high buildings. We enjoyed this video.
I dont know how you do it, and from where you gain your knowledge, but its like i am travelling with you and a personalized guide! Have fun and visit also more awesome places:).
We're heading to Chicago in September and this is a city we're really looking forward to visiting. Your video has given us some insight into what it's going to be like and has provided us with some ideas of what might be fun things to do. Cubs tickets booked!
Thanks for introducing to one of the great American cities. The building architecture here could be one of the best in the world ! The river cruise, fountains, observation from towers everything was so nice. I never realised how the time flew by... thanks.
Hi Robert, I don't know how you did it...? You packed so much, and seen so much in such a short period of time. My hat off to you, it has been most entertaining thus far. awesome and thank you.
Robert, I would love to be able to travel! me and my wife do a one year trip, this year we went to south Carolina. but I want to invest in a camper! my next goal. you are inspiring!
Hands down the view is spectacular way up in the sky amazingly done with your cameras continue the good work God bless I bet the ferris wheel would have even a better View perhaps it would :-)
+Doe Says Thank you so much. Yeah didn't care for the navy pier so much. Seen those kind of places in most cities. Margaritaville was my cue to continue going.
When I went to Navy Pier it was so crowded I literally could not move. There was a line for everything even to get into a store. I left after five minutes because I started to have a panic attack. I had a feeling that it was unsafely crowded where if a fire had broke out everyone would have died.😨
The good old days before they built everything up was when Jayne Burn was mayor and we had Chicagofest there. We'd see all the big rock and roll bands on the main stage and there were smaller stages for other types of music. It was a good time back then.
Thank you once again for this outstanding video!! I'm going to Chicago in a month and you gave me some great ideas of where to go check out. Thank you again from a fellow Miami native!
I just want to say that I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! You do a good job with them. I have not traveled much in my life and would love to but have not had the opportunity. I love the fact that you narrate everything so well. Thanks
I wish you would have lingered more on the glass top and took more videos of that stunning view like literally falling view wow indeed it was a little scary perhaps
Please come! You will be welcome! Beautiful city with Midwestern friendliness. Don't pay any attention to the "bulletproof vest" comment. I've lived in Chicago for 37 years and I've never even seen a gun here (except on the cops). Stick to the downtown and north areas and you will be fine.
Robert, that was one of the best vids of chicago Ive ever seen, but u forgot about the museum of Science and industry at 57th and Lake Shore dr.FANTASTIC place.
Hello Robert, I live in the Eden Prairie city, which is the suburb of Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is actually 17 miles away from Minneapolis to be exact. I really enjoy watching your Road Nomad trip cross the U.S.A. I would like you take trip to Minnesota when you can and cover this great state and city of Minneapolis, Minnesota just like you did in Chicago, Illinois or St. louis, Missouri. In addition, I discovered your channel on October 17, 2016, and I just subscribed your UA-cam channel. Thank you.
+Liban Mohamed Thank you. Next year I'm thinking of visiting Minnesota for sure. Maybe as part of a Wisconsin-Minnesota-Dakotas road trip. Not sure yet...but I hope so soon. Thanks again!
Awesome, You would like Twin Cities ( Minneapolis+ St Paul, Minnesota when you finally come through. By the way, your UA-cam is professionally done. I think you will be contact by an agent from Travel channel or Discover channel near the future. You are doing a big things Robert. keep up the good work.
Great tour of Chicago! We live over the border in Indiana and never knew half of this stuff! We visit there every few years. How did you find your spot for camping there? Do you need a reservation? Do they have a dump station? Thanks for all your videos! Love watching them! 😊✌🏼🙏🏻
Yeah robert..You right..But had a good time visiting LA, vegas, Dallas and Seattle as well. Seattle was the best ...Hope to see you visit India soon:-)
Also a place to get absolutely phenomenal pizza is at Pequods Pizza in the Lincoln Park neighborhood. If you ever go get the deep dish, not the thin crust.
Hey Robert! I live in Chicago. Thank you for coming! You took some of the best video I've seen of Chicago. You did the city proud. I cringed when you said Willis Tower, but then you included "Sears," so we're good. LOL!!
Only now I want to go to the museum and Portillos. I'm sorry you didn't get a chance to have a Chicago dog at Portillos, they're really good!
Next time we'll have the Chicago hot dog

+Robert Garskof Oh yeah, we barely scratched the surface on this trip. Thanks!
My wife and I have watched all of your videos, and this is our favorite. It's a great overview of Chicago-love the architecture there.
+tonyziptube Thank you! Chicago is beautiful.
I lived there for 20 years. You did the city justice--great video!
Thank you Robert,those of us who can't visit these lands you are making us virtually travel there! Hats off
+Nasir Soomro Thank you!
I am really enjoying all of your videos! But thank you so much for making my city look so good. You have really captured what we natives know and love about the city. I feel blessed to be able to spend every day there. Please come back again soon!
Thanks for touring my city! I grew up on Lake Shore Drive. Spectacular city!
19:56 love that musical riff. reminds me of the Keys!
+icollectstuffdude 🍺🌴

I enjoy all your videos my friend and yes, I enjoyed my visit in Chicago and the video helped me recall my Chicago vacation.
Thanks for sharing your visit of Chicago!!! I am originally from the Chicagoland area. I miss the area. Thanks again!
Thanks for the video, Robert. Remembered me my last stay @ Chicago. Me encantó!
+Alexander Karrer Gracias!
Chicago is one of the greatest cities I have ever been. So much to do everywhere you turn, summertime in Chicago is also amazing. Very clean, things happening all hours of the day and night, and great for the tourists.
+K2 (Digital Nomad) We had a fun time there.
Thank you, Robert. Just back from Chicago in March 2023 - the city is great in downtown, outside it’s a bit depressive. And it’s cold. But Art museum is fantastic and some restaurants as well.
Great video Robert, love your commentary and insightful view of the cities you visit.
+Ashley Braden Thank you!
Robert, your enthusiasm, cheerfulness and sense of humor are contagious. Love your videos. This is a wonderful look at the highlights of Chicago. Extremely fun to watch.

Can't wait to see your St. Louis visit, too. Keep up your outstanding work. We all love it.
+gmaneis Thanks! Working on St. Louis now. Chicago is a tough act to follow.
Thanks for sharing this remarkable trip to the beautiful Chicago. Makes me remember my visit in late 1998. Greetings from Germany.
I have seen many Chicago tour videos, but yours is by far the best I have seen. Thank you
+Tanya Dimitrova Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I sure enjoyed making it
I agree with Tanya, you did the city proud. We have a bad rep for violence, but I've lived here 37 years and I've never seen it. Thank you for showing the good side.

That was a very well done trip. So exciting traveling with you. So many places to see. Safe travels
Thank you!
If you're ever back in Chicago you cen get a bite to eat and have a wide selections of beers at Howells and Hood in the Trbune Tower.
We're heading to Chicago in September and this is a city we're really looking forward to visiting. Your video has given us some insight into what it's going to be like and has provided us with some ideas of what might be fun things to do. Cubs tickets booked!
Thanks for introducing to one of the great American cities. The building architecture here could be one of the best in the world ! The river cruise, fountains, observation from towers everything was so nice. I never realised how the time flew by... thanks.
+Anjali Rajadhyaksha Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed my video. We certainly enjoyed the trip.
Wow wow wow 103 hundred three floors up with a glass walkway stunning views from there:-) would love to be able to experience that indeed I would
Chicago has changed through the years. As usual very entertaining video and tour.
+Gino Rigucci Thanks!
My hometown! :) Chicago is a lot of fun in the summertime...Portillo's has the best char burgers too.
Lake shore drive is a very beautiful view.
Superb as usual. Coming over from UK next year, just got to decide where. Been to Memphis, Nashville, New Orleans and Orlando.
Brilliant Video! A lunch break well spent!
Hi Robert, I don't know how you did it...? You packed so much, and seen so much in such a short period of time. My hat off to you, it has been most entertaining thus far. awesome and thank you.
Great video. Chicago looks so beautiful, so busy and so big. Awesome to see.
Thank you!
ahhhhhh yes! once again, not disappointed. love watching these videos after work and unwinding! +100000
Thank you! I'm unwinding too right now :-)
Robert, I would love to be able to travel! me and my wife do a one year trip, this year we went to south Carolina. but I want to invest in a camper! my next goal. you are inspiring!
Love it! I haven't been to Chicago in 4 years and would love to get back soon.
+Kelly K We loved Chicago too. Thanks!
Amazing video Robert! It has a place in my list of favourite videos. Thank you for sharing!
+Dutch Americans Hey thank you! Glad you liked it.
Thank you so much Robert for this amazing visit of Chicago! You are the best traveller! 👍😎🚎
Bravisimo Robert
+Dorin Dorian Thank you!
Man, the Bean is wild. You guys know how to have fun. Wonderful video, as always.
Thanks man, we sure had a great time!
Hands down the view is spectacular way up in the sky amazingly done with your cameras continue the good work God bless I bet the ferris wheel would have even a better View perhaps it would :-)
I wasn't really interested in Navy pier either! Loved it when you said "it feels like a tourist trap" keep giving us your opinions! Love your show!
+Doe Says Thank you so much. Yeah didn't care for the navy pier so much. Seen those kind of places in most cities. Margaritaville was my cue to continue going.
As a Chicagoan I can tell you, we don't go either, it's strictly for the tourist.
Being from Chicago myself, it's a tourist trap, but one that is well worth it. The Midwestern Santa Monica Pier, or the Midwestern Pier 39.
When I went to Navy Pier it was so crowded I literally could not move. There was a line for everything even to get into a store. I left after five minutes because I started to have a panic attack. I had a feeling that it was unsafely crowded where if a fire had broke out everyone would have died.😨
The good old days before they built everything up was when Jayne Burn was mayor and we had Chicagofest there. We'd see all the big rock and roll bands on the main stage and there were smaller stages for other types of music. It was a good time back then.
I'm riding... you guys are soon much fun.
Thanks!
I went here in the summer of June 2010 when I was 11 and I remember going to Willis tower and the aquarium, the history museum, and the planetarium.
+Michael Young Cool. Great place
Amazing video Robert, Chicago is a very pretty city.
+MICHELLE DALTON Yes it is. Thank you!
We've visited Chicago several times, and have never felt unsafe. A fabulous city, and cheaper than NYC.
We didn't feel unsafe either
Thank you once again for this outstanding video!! I'm going to Chicago in a month and you gave me some great ideas of where to go check out. Thank you again from a fellow Miami native!
+mded691 Awesome. Enjoy Chicago! It will be a little colder by the time you go. Thanks!
I love your narrative.
Thanks!

+armand dima I would love to go back to Toronto, maybe even some day a cross Canada road trip.

Love (Jealous) that you got to Wrigley, hope I will someday.
Wonderful tour. Didn’t realize Chicago’s downtown was so big.
Have a friend that moved up there. I should go. Right? ❤
Thank you for sharing your trip. Very nice. I enjoyed a lot.
+D. R. Thanks!

You will love it. Chicago is the best place on earth
I was lucky to have lived there......wonderful city !!!
Yes, Chicago is great

Thank you!
Robert, that was one of the best vids of chicago Ive ever seen, but u forgot about the museum of Science and industry at 57th and Lake Shore dr.FANTASTIC place.
Thank you! I know, I couldn't do everything in 2 days
Chicago es una ciudad adorable.
You can now have Portillo's in Brandon and Tampa, FL.
+Arlene Corsini That's great news
They are opening 20 stores in Florida. Hopefully you will get one in Miami. :)
We got one here in Brookfield WI.
Hello Robert,
I live in the Eden Prairie city, which is the suburb of
Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is actually 17 miles away from Minneapolis to be exact.
I really enjoy watching your Road Nomad trip cross the U.S.A. I would like you
take trip to Minnesota when you can and cover this great state and city of Minneapolis,
Minnesota just like you did in Chicago, Illinois or St. louis, Missouri. In addition, I discovered your channel on
October 17, 2016, and I just subscribed your UA-cam channel. Thank you.
+Liban Mohamed Thank you. Next year I'm thinking of visiting Minnesota for sure. Maybe as part of a Wisconsin-Minnesota-Dakotas road trip. Not sure yet...but I hope so soon. Thanks again!
Awesome, You would like Twin Cities ( Minneapolis+ St Paul, Minnesota when you finally come through.
By the way, your UA-cam is professionally done. I think you will be contact by an agent from Travel channel or Discover channel near the future. You are doing a big things Robert. keep up the good work.
Nice to see the "brighter" side of Chicago. All one hears about is the violence that permeates that city....thanks for another fine video!
+Guy Mooglie Like every big city there's good and there's bad. I was there for the good...and I really liked what I saw. Thanks!
This city is huge. I have been here 48 years and have never even been touched by anything bad
one of the greatest travel youtube channels! Thanks Robert!
Thank you!
Great tour of Chicago! We live over the border in Indiana and never knew half of this stuff! We visit there every few years. How did you find your spot for camping there? Do you need a reservation? Do they have a dump station? Thanks for all your videos! Love watching them! 😊✌🏼🙏🏻
Thank you. No reservation, no dump station.
You need to check out Northern Wisconsin in the summer time or the fall time!
Yes I do
Another great job Robert!
+Janet Clement Thank you!
wow I usually watchs video Robert 's , I live it, thanks so much when you do it
+Yến Ĩn Thank you!
+TravelingRobert you're welcome
nice video Robert
I went here in Jan month this year but bad luck skydeck was closed due to severecwinter fog and rain .
+Satya Rajaram That sucks. I guess January is not a good month to visit Chicago.
Yeah robert..You right..But had a good time visiting LA, vegas, Dallas and Seattle as well. Seattle was the best ...Hope to see you visit India soon:-)
Awesome work Robert!
Thank you!
Also a place to get absolutely phenomenal pizza is at Pequods Pizza in the Lincoln Park neighborhood. If you ever go get the deep dish, not the thin crust.
I'm taking notes, for the next time I visit Chicago
Super Bro :) Love Chicago And You Too :) Big Thanks :)
+Rafsan1983 Thank you!
