Sweet! Checkin' it out now
Beautiful City
Perfect
I went to mostly all of the things on this list
Great! Thanks :).
You can also catch these hands for free in Chicago.
💀
On god 💀
😭😂
😂
Lmaooo wtf dude 😂😂😂
-Willis Tower-
*Sears Tower*
LOL. If it were going to remain the Willis Tower forever, we could have got used to the new name. But since it is likely to change name again, we figured out we would just keep the original one :)
IT ALWAYS WILL BE THE SEARS TOWER
Hi There spelled Willis pronounced Sears.
I hate when people say Willis tower
yeeeees
Thank you for calling it The Sears tower!!!!
Haha! If it was going to keep the Willis Tower name forever, then we might eventually get used to it. But if it's going to change name again, we might as well keep the stable one. You know, we often refer to the Aon Center as the Amoco building. We just don't learn quickly :)
I like "Sears Tower". I don't think I ever going to name this building Willis Tower. I can't even spell this correctly. 😁😁😁😁
@angelina angel The building was bought and the new owners changed it. But to native Chicagoans it will ALWAYS be the Sears Tower
You can pay for the observation deck but if you eat The signature room you pay a little bit more and at least you get a meal with it ...
I thought the view was better
I just came back from chi-town. (MY HOME TOWN) I moved to ATL then Miami, and when I say there's no place like Chicago! There's no place like CHICAGO.
Agreed :)
Just fine, because it’s always hot in Florida 😉
Waynaworld True
JK 64 Ur just mad because u probably live in a Cornball ass Hick Town No One has Ever Heard Of 😂😂...the people with So much $#!t to say about Chicago usually probably Never been to Chicago & Live in some Crappy Country Hillbilly Backwoods No Name Town 🤷♂️😂😂
JK 64 Ur just mad Because ur Town's Idea of "Fine Dining" is Olive Garden & Applebees's & the most entertaining thing to do is mozzy on down to the Nearest Wal-Mart 😂😂😂😂😂
If u like art the Mexican Art Museum in Pilsen is free! Also the neighborhood has lot of great restaurants and bars u could hit up later!
Thanks for the advice. We haven't been to the Mexican Art Museum for years. And we rarely go to Pilsen because we live on the north side. But it is a neighborhood a with great vibe and lots of restaurant choices.
krysg86, mentioning you is just so this comment will end up here where it belongs, since I want to point out to those not familiar with Chicago, that Pilsen is another of the many neighborhoods of Chicago, rather than a suburb.
Krysg86, based on your advice, we just went to the Mexican Art Museum. First time in many, may years. It was fantastic! Thanks you so much for recommending it. We are working on two other videos about Chicago off the beaten path and Chicago museums and took great shots of Pilsen and the museum. Whenever we get around to finishing these videos, the Mexican Art Museum will be featured :)
That museum is the most boring thing ever!!’ As a Latina living in little village, there are better places to visit
You know what that's all about. I find it odd they didn't mention The DuSable Museum. Probably never been to it, even though they did mention Hyde Park.
Don’t forget about the free fire work show!! They do at navy pier
When do they do that?
This past summer it was on Wednesdays and Saturdays!
I live in the Chicago area. These particular places might be free and they are fun places to go to but the parking prices are high. Sometimes, I just put my bicycle in the car and park on the north side of Chicago and ride into downtown. Also, you can take the "L" train.
Absolutely, we never drive downtown. The L, the bus or bikes are the way to go.
Very good point do whatever you can to not rely on a car here.
if you are driving from a different city, it might be better to take amtrak in or at least take the metra/southshore line commutter rail in from the far suburbs. parking is usually either free or dirt cheap at those stations and many have security.
Plus over the last decade the amount of bike lanes has been going up a lot, you can get basically anywhere downtown on a bike.
i've lived there all my life and honestly i just love it, there's a ton of stuff to do. chicago is fricken lit
Haha. We love it too :)
Your video makes this home town girl proud. Thank you for showing our INCREDIBLE CITY in such a beautiful light! My grandparents immigrated to Chicago from Italy in 1910!! This makes me feel like jumping on a train and spending the day in the city!
Thanks for the kind words. As you might expect, a lot of work and effort go into making these videos. You absolutely should jump on a train and visit the city. You can also check our latest video about Chicago Off The Beaten Path. Some more great sites featured in that video.
It's a DEMOCRATIC SH!THOLE. Best moves I ever made was leaving over a year ago
10 free things to do in Chicago:
*breath*
YOSHIMATIONS uwu blink
Might get taxed as well sometime soon.
*Breathe
You can't even spell, trying to be smartass 😂😂😂
J.C R.M Oh you better believe that is going to happen in our near future
I love my home Sweet home Chicago ☺️❤️
Johnny Tribble, we just released a new video on Chicago Off The Beaten Path. Hopefully, it will make you love the city even more :).
Hello
I know you are from Chicago because only real people from Chicago say Sears Tower and not Willis Tower. As a fellow Chicagoan, I certify his credibility 😂
Haha, we're so hard core that we still refer to the Aon Center as the Amoco Building 😂. If you enjoyed this video, take a look at our new video about Chicago Off The Beaten Path. It will be released tomorrow afternoon.
Ikr Im also from chicago
Absolutely, and it will always be the Hancock Building. When I was young, the Field Museum's name was changed to the Chicago Museum of Natural History or something like that. Nobody called it by its new name and it is now the Field Museum again.
Not true. I am from Wisconsin, have been to Chicago a few times (would like to go more). I always call it the Sears Tower.
YES! Native Chicagoans do NOT say Willis Tower. It is SEARS Tower and always will be!
I've been there a month ago and I'm happy I've covered about 90% of the list. Beautiful and welcoming place.
Good to hear. We think Chicago is grossly underrated as a tourist destination :)
I luv visiting Chicago, such an amazing city! We in Wakanda think Chicago is one of the best cities of the world.
We love it too :).
Lmfao
😂😂😂
Build an embassy here
Chicago Skyline is so beautiful. I grew up in the Western Suburbs of Chicago, my husband grew up on thyhe Southside of Chicago- near The Cook County Jail.
The beautiful skyline is awesome. I love Chicago & of course The Chicago Cubs.
Enjoy your visit to this amazing city.
mrs Bee, agreed. The Chicago skyline when you fly in over the lake from the East Coast is absolutely amazing!
CHICAGO LOOKS AWESOME 😎😎👍🏻🇬🇧🏴🇺🇸
Six months out of the year, it is :)
That's because it is.
4 months out of the year it is.
Just don’t leave downtown you’ll be aight
Chicago is my favourite city! 💕
It is our favorite city too, although to be fair more so six months ouf of the year 😎 than the other six ⛄️.
James and Laurent's World Travels fair! Although I have to say that I prefer the winter haha
Yo amo chicago es mi segunda ciudad vivi varios años ahi demasiada cultura y gastronomia simplemente lo mejor
I really appreciate the effort you guys put into making this. As a lifelong Chicagoan who relocated to the East Coast, I look forward to enjoying things I missed out on during my upbringing.
Thanks for the kind words. You are right that a lot of time and effort went into this video. We are glad it doesn't go unnoticed and people enjoy watching it.
I lived in Chicago for 15 years, and truly miss it. Robbie House is a can’t miss.
We hope you get the chance to go back from time to time.
@@JamesandLaurent I come back every fall.
Great time of the year to visit.
Some great spots for sure.
This is a very useful video! Thank you for taking the time to do this. I'm going to share it with all my friends!
Thanks :)
I am new to Chicago suburb I was always wondering where to go but thid video is informative, I wish to get other videos like this
Me das tu numero
Can you please share it with me also
Thank you for calling it the Sears tower 😂
Yes, if it were going to remain the Willis Tower forever, we could have got used to the new name. But since it is likely to change name again, we figured out we would just keep the original one :)
I’m from Chicago and I have no idea what your accent is but it’s not Chicago or midwestern but great video! Highlighted great areas!
Haha. French all the way with a fairy dust of American and Australian along the way.
James and Laurent's World Travels I visit Lincoln Park Zoo before on 6:42
JK 64 if you don't have nothing nice to say then say nothing . FYI Chicago 25 place for homicides.
@JK 64 tool
Loser@JK 64 you're full of 💩it!!👎👎
I'm visiting Chicago soon and have only been one other time. I'm on a tight budget but wanted to explore Chicago without having to be on a tour. This video was extremely helpful, thank you!
Thanks for the kind words. We hope you enjoy your trip :)
Use the bus. Walking downtown is free.
I miss my home town...thank you for the sites.....2 thumbs up ☺
You're very welcome, Maria. 2 thumbs up to you too :)
Ayyyeee I live in Chicago too #Windy City #Chi town It’s absolutely beautiful here there’s so much things too look at here and so many things to experience by far one of the most beautiful cities I know
We love it too. Six months out of the year 😎😎😎 more so than the other six ⛄️⛄️⛄️.
Chicago is beautiful!!!!
❤❤❤
We think so too :)
I have been on one visit to Chicago beautiful place beautiful people I am going back there in a few weeks looking forward too it
frances jones I suggest Hyde park Chicago’s cuz I LIVE THERE :)
Loved the tour, thanks fellas
We're glad you enjoyed it. You should come and visit some day :)
Wow!! The architecture is amazing!!! And the artwork is so beautiful and well integrated in the city that it is hard to see where the art end and the city begins. And of course we love the waterfront 😊 Beautiful video from a beautiful city👍🏻
We love it too. Chicago is very underrated :).
Thanks for putting this together...appreciate it
No worries. It was a fun video to shoot :)
Stanley George, we just released a new video on Chicago Off The Beaten Path. Let us know if you enjoy it as much as this one.
Yes it’s pretty good enough 😘👌🏾😎👍🏾
Haha, good enough is what we're shooting for 😜.
Well done, thanks!
You're very welcome :)
Wow awesome place keep loading... video incredible.. Chicago...
It means u loves ur country...
Moon Joon, we just released a new video on Chicago Off The Beaten Path. Hopefully, you'll enjoy it as much as this one :).
It’s really good to know this because I’ve been to Chicago so much and I live by Chicago but sadly I’ve probably done most of these but still giving the props to you🏙
Haha, we've done most of these attractions several times and we still enjoy going back. Enjoy the game :)
Laila Hornke, we just released a new video on Chicago Off The Beaten Path. Hopefully, you'll discover things on it you haven't already done :).
Great overview of the Hott Spotts around the Windy City!! Great highlighting during the Springtime!!
Thanks :)
Amazing! Thank you
You're very welcome. If you liked this video, we just released a new one this week called 'Chicago Off The Beaten Path', which is a similar style video and features more things to do in Chicago.
I live near Chicago and I love it
We love it too :)
Awesome job! We always talk about taking a trip to Chicago. That kids park looks awesome! We love your videos! BIG LIKE!
You absolutely should. You guys are so close. Now is the time of the year to do it.
Been there 3 weeks ago. It's good to be in Chicago, I had a good time with my American friends. I'm from the Philippines and as early as now saving and planning to go back in December 2019.
December is definitely not the best time to visit Chicago :).
Thanks a lot!!! I really appreciate your help.
We didn't know you were in need of help, haha. But we're glad people find this video helpful. It was the purpose of doing it. Enjoy Chicago!
Lmao I live In Chicago and didn’t know half of the stuff was here 💀
To be fair to you, a few of them didn't exist a few years ago. We hope you knew at least about the lake and about Michigan avenue 🤣🤣🤣
💀😂
The newest thing is Millennium Park or River Walk, both been there 10 years easily. Also, Millennium Park is right up against Grant Park where the Buckingham Fountain is.
Leo Cerero me either. I watched this like how is that I’ve NEVER been to even half of the places highlighted?
Grew up on the South Side (Washington Park, Englewood), and I've been to ALL of these places as nearly all of them are landmarks, and are Downtown.
You both did such a wonderful job with this vid! Thanks for doing our city justice🙌🏾🙌🏾😍😍
Sandra. Thanks a lot for the kind words. It means a lot to us. As you might imagine, a lot of work went into this video and we are glad people enjoy the final product. We are working on another video about Chicago off the beaten path. Once we get around to finish shooting it and editing it, it should be ready sometime in the fall, just when tourists stop coming here 😄😄😄.
James and Laurent's World Travels Awesome! I look forward to it! 😊
@@sandraa_mani We don't work very fast, but we finally finished editing our newest video on Chicago Off The Beaten Path. Hopefully, you'll enjoy it as well :).
Great information! Thank you for sharing!
Glad it was helpful! Enjoy your trip!
Thank you so much! this is the first video that matches what I was looking for in planning for a trip - a lot about cultural places and less about big touristy attraction or food!
Glad it was helpful! If you are looking for cultural places, we also have a video about the Top 10 museums in Chicago and another video about things to do off-the-beaten-path. Depending on how much time you have in Chicago.
This is an an outstanding summary. Am going to Chicago next summer on vacation. Thanks so much guys 😀
Nigel. Thanks for the thanks 😊. Depending on how much time you are going to spend in Chicago, we have two other videos you might want to watch, one about things to do off the beaten path and another one about the Chicago museums. If your trip also takes you to New York, we are currently working on its sister video with our top 10 free things to do in New York 🗽🗽🗽. Depending on how quickly we work, we hope to have it ready in a couple of weeks.
@@JamesandLaurent Thanks again guys, my wife and I will probably fly to Washington DC as we are visiting a friend in Virginia, then anticipate about 4 nights in Chicago
I literally was just talking about how I'd live to visit Chicago. Y'all both are wonderful. Great video for someone who would want to sight see there. ❤
Thanks so much for sharing guys!
Thanks for watching. We appreciate it :).
That was AWESOME- thank you for sharing.
Thanks for the kind words. We're glad you enjoyed it :)
Chicago is the best city in the world. Change my mind
In the summer it is 😁.
Yes! The spectacular River Walk very much belongs on your list. But taking the River Walk absolutely in no way compromises the architectural boat tour. The River Walk only covers the width of the Loop from Michigan Avenue to Wacker Drive’s north/south section. And even there, your view of the tower to your south along Wacker Drive (e/w) is limited and you only get a complete view of the towers of River North, the downtown neighborhood across the river. True can walk the riverfront going east from Michigan Avenue to LSD, but is just an ordinay stretch of walkway, not part of the River Walk. The architecural oat tour gives you a more extensive view of the building of downtown Chicago, including both the north and south branches. Best deal: do both the River Walk and the architectural tour
Edward, Thanks for your advice. We absolutely love the architectural boat tour. We actually prefer the one that stays on the river rather than the one that goes on the lake (although both of them are great). But they are clearly not free :)
truly captures the great areas of chicago! i love living in chicago and visiting these places!💗
Thanks for the compliments. As you might imagine, a lot of hard work went into this video. We're glad you enjoyed it :)
Kylie, we just released a new video about Chicago Off The Beaten Path. Hopefully, you'll enjoy it as much as this one :).
LOVE THIS!
Thank you so much for all the information, so useful.
Visiting soon and this is really going to make my time worthwhile.
Thanks for the kind comments. We hope you enjoy your time in Chicago. Depending on how much time you have and how mainstream you want to stay, you can also check our video about things to do off the beaten path.
Great job guys I totally agree with your choices of places to visit in Chicago! I live in Chicago I luv this city!
Thanks. After a while, we kind of figured out what outoftowners liked and didn't like. We like it all :)
I am heading to the Gold Coast July 22!!! Cannot wait to experience this city. Go Chi Town.
We hope you'll enjoy it as much as we do :)
Please tell me! Lou Malnattis or Giordannos?
I am only staying by the Gold Coast, Michigan Ave and the Pier. I am perfectly aware that there are ghettos and that was a huge concern but I will not be near those areas. All this violence is senseless.
Try Palermos pizza it's better then the hyped loud malnatis.
We actually take out of towners to Gino's East. But we don't claim to be experts in deep dish pizza.
Thank you
You're very welcome :)
thank for sharing.
You're very welcome. We love our city 😊.
Lincoln Park IS NOT 'just north of the city'. It is in Fact IN THE CITY.
Right! Just north of the city center.
Correct, just the north side of the city.
🦯🦯🦯.
Adjecent at North avenue beach
The water air show
We are definitely going to the air and water show this weekend and hope to get enough footage to make a video out of it. But this video was about year-round attractions, not about one-time events like the air and water show or all the fairs and festivals in the summer.
Wow beautiful Chicago daley park amazings buildings and structures
Yes, we hope you get a chance to go there some day. Chicago is completely underrated.
Thanks ! really helpful guys
Glad it helped! We hope you enjoy your stay in Chicago :)
good people good city )
Yes, we like it :)
Hello, I hope you are doing good
Chicago has the best blues venues. Deep dish pizza.
Thank you for sharing and your honest opinions ♥️
You're very welcome. Chicago has so much to offer that there is no need to embellish things when there are attractions we don't care about 😊.
Thanks so much guys!!! My family and I will be visiting this weekend 😊
We hope you enjoy your visit. If you run out of things to do, we also have a video on Chicago off the beaten path that has a few more things to do both in the core downtown and further away.
Why I'm I watching this I live on Chicago and I went to half of these places btw good video
If you live in Chicago, you should have seen all of these places, lol. FYI, we have a new video being released on Monday. It will be about 'Chicago off the beaten path'. It may feature places you haven't been to yet. Check it out.
@@JamesandLaurentok thanks 🙈😂💜
Lol sameee
Hail Papa Emeritus IV
I like Chicago
We like Chicago too :)
James and Laurent's World Travels thanks
wow! thank you. This is helpful
Thanks for the kind words. As you might expect, a lot of work went into making this video and we're glad you found it helpful.
NICE video, thank you.
Thanks for the kind words. We're glad we could help :)
You guys missed the mark. There’s so much to do at Navy Pier. Boat rides, plant sanctuary inside, restaurants and shopping. On Saturday nights during the summer there’s fireworks. I love Navy Pier. Also, you guys missed the mark on the Museum of Science and Industry, the Shed Aquarium and and The Art Museum. Are all free on certain days of the week. I believe it’s Tuesdays. Easy enough to find out with a phone call. The DuSable Museum if African History is always free.
If 10 million people go to Navy Pier, there's probably a reason for it. Just not for us :(. We will do a separate video dedicated to the Chicago museums. Everything else on the video is free every day.
EVERYTHING in Navy Pier costs
Free Things?
Livingboldlynfierce fireworks are on wensdays as well but he said free so....
Sea Turtle Queen16 I wasn’t saying the fireworks were free. I was saying that there are things to do at Navy Pier. Walking around it and watching fireworks are free. But most things at Navy Pier aren’t. I just thought disagreed that there wasn’t anything to do at Navy Pier.
GOOD CHOICES IVE BEEN TO ALL OF THEM EXCEPT MAGGIE DALEY PARK.
Maggie Daley Park doesn't make as much sense if you don't have little kids. But there is still rock climbing for grown ups.
Curtistine Miller, we just released a new video on Chicago Off The Beaten Path. Let us know if you've been to all the places on that video :).
It's pretty new and even though it's really a playground it's so well done everyone will enjoy seeing it and being there.
Thank you so much for making this. Great shots and helped me immensely.
You're very welcome. We hope you enjoy your trip to Chicago.
Especially great photography and anecdotes😀❤️🤗
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it!
Greatest City Ever!!!!
yes it is
Brian agreed! I'm from the southside but I live in the burbs..I have a family bro
D-Lo The Gamer Chicago is a violent city and police can murder a black man and get paid desk duty and never go to jail
D-Lo The Gamer no it's not in my opinion.
useipie 24 I feel you bro
I wanna meet u guys one day❤I also live in chicago😁😁
We do spend time in the city, occasionally, when we're not travelling 😁😁😁.
James and Laurent's World Travels ohh😁Have u met any of ur fans yet?
It actually has never happened. We were in Greece recently (we hope you saw the first video from our trip. The second is on its way). We were hoping to meet one of our early fans who's from there, but we couldn't make our schedules work.
James and Laurent's World Travels ohhh😀I did see the video tho😀
A most wonderful video. Thank you!
Thanks for the kind words. As you might expect, a lot of time and effort went into making this video. We're glad people enjoy watching it.
Very Helpful. I'm moving to Chicago in 5 days for college and I cannot wait to experience it all in person! 😊💖
Welcome to Chicago. We hope you enjoy it :)
You should include Marshall Fields on State St. Fantastic interiors!
MisterHot, Thanks for the recommandation. We are working on a new video about Chicago off he beaten path. We are still adding thins to the list. We should have it ready by September. Come check us out then.
I LOVE going there. they have tours as well
It hasnt been Marshall Fields in a decade.
the giant chandelier is amazing. marshall fields was a revolutionary department store that changed how people shop. one of his assistants, selfridge, went to england to spread this type of department store. many thought fields was nuts in allowing the customer to pick through piles of merchandise instead of a sales person bringing out one item at a time.
@@karmicobsession1636 technically it is macys at marshal fields on state street. there was a backlash when macys decided to retire the marshal fields name in the midwest so they decided to partially keep the original fields name on the building.
The Chicago beetches 😁😁😁😁🤣
🌊🌴🌊🌴🌊
Enjoyable!!! I miss my hometown. 😍👍
We just had our first snowfall of the year ❄️for Halloween 👻.
Great tips! Thank you. Going to refer to this city guide next time I’m in Chicago. Nice job
Thanks
I love CHICAGO!
So do we :)
Very informative since I’m currently working on my itinerary for my trip to Chicago in September.
We're glad you found it useful. This is why we made this video.
Karen Alvarado U will Love Chicago !
Dierre Sanders
Thank you! Though I will only be staying there for 11 days. I was planning to take a trip to NY but now, i’m just thinking of staying in Chi. I heard jazz music is lit as well. And i’ll be able to watch my first ever baseball game!
Karen Alvarado Go to a Cubs Game, it's an Amazing Experience. Many Clubs, Bars, Restaurants & Shopping in the Area of Wriglyville. Yes Chicago is Famous for Jazz & Blues Music !
Dierre Sanders can’t wait! Still 9 more weeks til my trip but taking note of all the tips. Thank you so much!!!
Cool!
Thanks!
I so much enjoyed the video. Thanks guys! Love Chicago and must go back.
Ivanko Kojcic, thanks for the kind words. As you might expect, a lot of work went into this video. We are glad you enjoyed it :)
Greatest city on earth!!
Absolutely… 6 months out of 12 😀
😀
😀 .
I only love during the winter myself. Summer well almost makes me leave here but cant the city is too great
Come on you know New York City does it better ladies😂😂😂😂😂
new York is only good for people who like filth so no not for me
Santos Perez Chicago is a clean New York. At least we don’t have rats on our trains
What?! No mention of GARRET'S POPCORN???
Garret's Popcorn is not free, as far as we know :).
@@JamesandLaurent No matter....if you haven't had Garret's popcorn, you haven't been to Chicago.
Thank you guys! I’m moving to Chicago in the next couple of weeks and I’m so excited to see all this cool stuff!
Haha, welcome home :)
Merci pour cet excellent vidéo! Can't wait for this summer visiting Chicago!!
We hope you enjoy your trip. Chicago has so much to offer!
Tourism in Chicago is at its highest and Chicago has been ranked best city overall and best city too live in last two years!
PRHILL9696 big lies !
Chicago is very underrated :).
Agree. It gets no better any where than Chicago!
@@robertpreston2220 True Chicago is the best of all
The Baha’i Temple is in Wilmette not Evanston I live two blocks away from it.
You're only the 20th comment pointing this out. We were off by 2 blocks 😁.
James and Laurent's World Travels wow I totally forgot I commented that, but I realized that I wasn’t the first to comment that but wow it took a year to say that
Great video! Thanks
Thanks for the kind words :)
Thank u so much..really enjoyed it...
You're very welcome. We appreciate the kind words. As you might expect, a lot of work went into making this video 🤗.
Lincoln Park ZOO and CONSERVATORY are BOTH FREE.??
Yes, free as free and they are right next to each other.
James and Laurent's World Travels okay good. I knew some things (museums and such ) are free but I thought you had to show Illinois residency. I live in Portage Indiana... near Valparaiso. (Northwest Indiana).
What sucks is parking isn't free and is in fact insanely expensive! DON'T bring a car if at all ya come here!
@@vaishx Use the SpotHero parking app. The parking is reasonable that way.
Chicago is awesome!
I have a whole generation born there,on another note some people there do just wild things(Murder,suicide,kidnappings,)
That's just the bad parts about it still a normal city!
I love chicago.
We love Chicago too :)

Thanks, this was helpful!
We're glad you liked it :).
From Memorial Day to Labor Day there are a lot of events in Navy Pier, music, beer, , fireworks on Wednesday and Saturday , children museum, restaurants, boat tours, etc.
Baha'i temple is in Wilmette, not Evanston
