  What to do with out-of-town guests that are looking for more than the usual sites? Get out on the lake! After researching and calling around, I went with Offshore Boat Charters as they were by far the most accommodating and booking was a breeze. We took full advantage of their BYOB policy and in hindsight, I wish we would have brought food for the grill they have on board (they also have a sound system which you can hook into). My friends were extremely impressed with the views the boat offered (as was I, even as a long time resident). We ended up cruising along the river too (which has equally exciting views of the city) since the lake was chilly this early in the year. Offshore's staff was both friendly and knowledgeable and the boat was spacious and well kept (bathrooms were spotless, which is always crucial). The price was beyond a deal for the experience--I'm already planning an outing this summer to take advantage of the extras they have (free kayak and paddle board)! The charter ended up being the highlight of the trip! THANKS, Offshore! Delete review

  We chartered with friends for a trip through the Chicago Harbor Locks and down the Chicago River. It was a little cool that day but, the scenery was fantastic! In all honesty with the sun shining on us it wasn’t all that cold. Plus, this is a BYOB boat so we warmed up quite nice. The Captain and crew ran one smooth show. I even got to get my hands a little dirty which added to the experience! Who knows maybe I can be a part of the crew? From the dock to the harbor lock gives you one heck of a view of the Chicago skyline. This is simply one of the best routes to take fantastic pictures of all of the architecture the City of Chicago has to offer. The boat was clean and spacious. There was more than enough room for all of us on board. I can’t wait for a hot summer day to do this again!
