    I have watched so many videos in preparation for my visit. This is the best one.

    This is like it was made for me. I have a four-night solo trip scheduled, staying in Gold Coast, and I needed some beer destination suggestions.

    Great video! I am heading out to Chicago this Saturday for four days from New Jersey. I have only visited Chicago once before for a wedding weekend about 5 years ago. The wedding was held in the Museum of the City of Chicago. Was a very cool event, but I promised myself that I had to return again to explore more of the city. Have been binge watching videos to prepare myself. Loved your suggestions. I am not a great beer aficionado, but maybe you can mention a few Chardonnay stops along your way next time?

      Have a wonderful trip! I'll see what I can do to cover some wine another time. I've heard of some great wine bars there at the very least.

    Great video. The ledge looks scary. 😊 Thanks for showing the art gallery. You really have to take a river tour. 😊👍🇨🇦

      Thanks so much! And I loved the river tour. I did that in 2019. What a view! Few cities have water ways like that, and great architecture and culture.

    Que Frank Sinatra’s “Chicago”. You have to come back once they complete Obama Presidential Center in Jackson park where the 1893 Chicago’s world fair once was held.

      I hope I can get back to Chicago every year. It's one of my favourite cities.

    As a Chicagoan, please be careful doing a Malort shot. Do it only if you have a designated driver and you are not taking before a meal because it will destroy your taste buds. 😂

      @wanderpow  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The bartender convinced me to try it at the end and yeah, that's solid advice! 😆

    Nice video. How long did you spend there? Would 3-4 days be a good starting point?

    • @wanderpow
      @wanderpow  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks! 3-4 days is perfect to start exploring, especially if you're staying in the city core and close to your top attractions.

    Hey, would you recommend an architecture boat road during sunset or midday?

    • @wanderpow
      @wanderpow  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It's great any time, but sunset would be incredible with the buildings along the river.

    Can you get into goose island without a reservation?

    • @wanderpow
      @wanderpow  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The location in this video closed at the end of last year, but as for the West Fulton location, you shouldn't need reservations for lunch or weekdays, but you may need them for supper or busy days.
