Publisher's Synopsis
This compact pocket guide provides nine in-depth walking tours in the heart of Chicago, including Michigan Avenue, the Magnificent Mile, walks along the river and the lake, the Loop, the Art Institute, Grant Park, Navy Pier, and the galleries of River North. Independent travellers will appreciate the large, easy-to-read maps with informative listings of sites, restaurants, and shopping areas along each route. Once the trip is planned, travellers can leave heavy guidebooks at home and just carry this lightweight walking guide, which is packed in a reusable plastic sleeve that fits in any purse, pocket, or backpack. Useful information such as local dos and don'ts, top attractions, historical information, tipping guidelines, and weather is included.
