Easter Brunch Cruise

Bring the family to enjoy an Easter Brunch, amazing views of Chicago by water, dancing to the DJ's Top-40 hits, goodie bags for the kids, and a visit by the Easter Bunny.

Enjoy two leisurely hours of springtime fun while you see the city's spectacular skyline.

You'll enjoy a bountiful buffet of wonderful taste treats; and to complement the stunning sights, a narrator describes the highlights of your ever-changing view.

The Setting

Feel right at home as you cruise in climate-controlled comfort. You'll be seated at your table where attentive servers will take your drink orders and invite you up to the buffet. Enjoy a bountiful meal as you gaze at an endless stream of riverfront sights. Unlike a restaurant or banquet hall, the cruise ship brings an ever-changing view of the Chicago skyline to you. You won't find such an array of attractions anywhere else.

Sightseeing on the Cruise:

Your cruise departs from the historic Navy Pier on Lake Michigan. Your excursion covers the magnificent lakefront with spectacular views of the city's downtown. No trip to Chicago is complete without a view from the deck of our festive ship. And while you're enjoying all the highlights, you can dine, dance and have a great time, too.

1. Navy Pier
This Chicago landmark was built in 1916 and today offers more than 50 acres of parks, gardens, shops, restaurants, and attractions including one of the country's largest Ferris Wheels.

2. Jardine Filtration Plant
The world's largest filtration plant; it processes one million gallons a minute.

3. Adler Planetarium
Built in 1930, this fascinating attraction was a gift to the city from Max Adler of Sears & Roebuck fame.

4. John G. Shedd Aquarium
Opened in 1930, its original salt water came by train from Key West. Today, it is home to more than 8,000 aquatic animals.

5. Soldier Field
Opened in 1924, it was named in memory of Americans killed in World War I, and later rededicated to World War II soldiers. It is now home stadium of the Chicago Bears football team.

6. Grant Park
Covering 319 prime acres along the lakefront, it was developed into one of America's great city parks after the Great Chicago Fire of 1871.

7. Buckingham Fountain
Built in 1927 at the center of Grant Park, this is the world's largest lighted fountain.

8. McCormick Place
This stunning lakefront convention center boasts the largest column-free space in the world.

13. John Hancock Center
When it was completed in 1970, it was the world's tallest building, supported by braces to prevent it from swaying in the gusts off Lake Michigan. Its skywalk observatory, at 1127 feet, is the Midwest's highest open-air experience.

14. Lake Michigan
Formed by Ice Age glaciers, it is the only one of the Great Lakes that lies wholly in the US. It is approximately 307 miles long, 118 miles wide and 925 feet deep.
