Chicago Student Trip
If you’re ready to shake up the usual school trip itinerary, consider Chicago- recently named one of the Student Youth Travel Association’s Top Ten Student Destinations in the U.S.
Chicago Highlights
Navy Pier
Start on the shoreline of Lake Michigan at Navy Pier, a 50-acre playground packed with fun. Student groups will get a bird’s eye view of the lake and the city as they soar 200 feet in the air on the Centennial Wheel. Then they’ll splash down for an incredible tour of the lake or the Chicago River on a cruise departing from the pier.
Millennium Park and Magnificent Mile
Once the group is back on land, continue exploring at Millennium Park, boasting a state-of-the-art collection of architecture, landscape design and art (all free!) and a fresh spin on the “town square.”
Then stroll down Chicago’s renowned Magnificent Mile for some retail therapy or a slice of that famous deep-dish pizza.
Museum of Science and Industry
The Museum of Science and Industry is another extraordinary attraction unique to Chicago. Open since 1933, MSI is one of the largest science museums in the world.
Skydeck
Thrill-seekers will rejoice with a visit to the Skydeck Chicago in Willis Tower. They’ll step outside the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere at a height of 1,353 feet and onto the Ledge’s glass boxes, which extend 4.3 feet out from the Skydeck.
