Spirit of Chicago Dinner Cruise

Highlights / General details

Dinner Cruises sail for 2.5 or 3 hours, depending on the day of the week. Watch the Chicago skyline light up from the water and enjoy beautiful sunsets during the summer months.

Departing from Navy Pier, the cruise route will take you north along the lakefront and then back down toward Museum Campus and Soldier Field. Enjoy phenomenal views from the rooftop observation deck or the many windows surrounding the climate-controlled dining decks.

Spirit of Chicago’s creative, contemporary buffet-style dinner is available throughout the cruise. Sample a variety of delicious dishes and be sure to save room for dessert!
