Walking Tour: Underground Chicago via the Pedway System

Location Chicago, Illinois, USA
Stripe Paypal Visa Mastercard Amex Discover
Overview
Chicago’s Pedway system is a network of underground tunnels that enable pedestrians to pass from one end of the Loop to the other without ever going outside.

Our tour begins in the lobby of the Swissotel. We then descend into the Pedway and begin our underground journey to the Cultural Center. After a brief tour of the Cultural Center and its famous Tiffany Dome, we return to the Pedway for a short walk to view the magnificent interior of the iconic Macy’s department store.

After a brief stop at a nearby food hall, we return to the Pedway and follow it to the Daley Civic Center where we ascend to view the famous Picasso sculpture. We return to the Pedway for a short walk to City Hall and Marriage Court and then on to the L Stop at Wells and Washington Streets.

A quick train ride to the other side of the Loop takes us to the origin/terminus of Route 66 and the Art Institute on our way to Millenium Park to view the famous Cloud Gate sculpture, aka, The Bean, where our tour ends.
