Fun place to take the kids! Winter is a great time with the ice skating that they offer

Not as exciting as the Sears, but great at Christmas time. Free picture with Santa! We loved it!

I have been here many times a long time ago but neither have my daughters have gone. That is pretty sad for the 12 year old. I really need to take them both.

It is kind of expensive considering the fact that you spend there half an hour at the most. But the view is great and you must visit it at least once :)

We love going here to get a good view of our city. I love their new glass see thru floors. It is a little scary though. I would not recommend it for young kids who might get really scared. We also love going here or the Sears Tower with out of town guests.

Much like the Sears tower this is another great place to visit, with the fantastic views of the city. Discounts abound, and you are close to restaurants, like Cheesecake Factory or walk around the neighborhood for tons of other ideas. Chicago el stop is nearby. I like Sear tower better.

Okay! So I couldn't even look down, especially on the new supension/glass flooring. We enjoyed having brunch on the next floor up. Great place to go.

A great way to see Chicago and it's waterfront. While you are there, stop to eat at the 95th floor restaurant or the Cheesecake Factory in the basement. A great spot for out of town guests, but do look for coupons to cut down on the cost.

Great for out of town guests or if you are downtown and haven't been up there in a while. Not something I would do regularly but it is a must do at least once.

Loved the spectacular view from the top! Would be more worth it, if I had known there were coupons in the Oakley guide, since it can be expensive for a family of four.

I have been going here since i was a little girl and of course had to take my girl there this summer. My 4 year old loved the views and kept saying she was a bird. We went with my parents and everyone seemed to have a great time.
