Chicago Fireworks Cruise?
 
Hi all,

Will be in Chicago in mid-June. Would like to do a Wednesday night fireworks cruise, buy am unsure as to which one we should book. We are a family with 3 kids ages 10-15. The Seadog cruise sounds fun, but is very short. Shoreline Cruises also offers a fireworks cruise, but I'm not sure if it would be as fun.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

We did a river/lake cruise last summer. We tried to do the firework cruise but all were sold out hours in advance. I would recommend going down to the pier for a look around early in the day and booking what looks good in advance..

Thanks... if I can figure out which cruise to book now, I'll do it before we even get there. Thanks for your help!

We took the Shoreline fireworks cruise last September. It was neat, but I don't know that I would describe it as "fun". The kids might enjoy the Seadog Cruise more. The best part is the view of the Chicago skyline at night. I think I have enjoyed watching the fireworks from the pier even more than from the cruise in the past.
