ChicaGo By Boat

ChicaGo By Boat offers private boat charters from Burnham Harbor in Chicago, creating memorable experiences on Lake Michigan and the Chicago River. Groups of up to six passengers can enjoy an intimate cruise aboard either a sailing yacht or a powerboat, with charter durations typically ranging from two to three hours.

The experience is well suited to organisers looking for something distinctive for a small corporate outing, client gathering, team celebration or private occasion. Routes and timings can be selected around the occasion, whether guests want a peaceful morning on the water, an afternoon cruise, a skyline sunset or an evening beneath the city lights. The boats also provide an excellent viewpoint for seasonal highlights such as Navy Pier fireworks, the Chicago Air and Water Show and views around Museum Campus, Northerly Island and Soldier Field.

The sailing yacht, S/V Nightswimming, offers a comfortable setting with seating, a refrigerator, marine toilet and Bluetooth audio. The M/V Mahgeetah provides a different atmosphere, combining the character of a classic powerboat with a relaxed cruising experience. Both vessels are presented as private, captain-led options, allowing the itinerary to feel personal rather than like a standard sightseeing tour.

For event planners, the company can add an original water-based element to a Chicago programme, incentive itinerary or intimate celebration. It is also suitable for romantic proposals, milestone occasions and small groups wanting a private view of the skyline. With flexible departure times, a central Chicago location and the option to tailor the outing around the group, ChicaGo By Boat offers a memorable alternative to conventional land-based venues and activities.
