If you’re planning on taking a few of our tours—or even trying the Around Chicago in 85 Tours Challenge yourself—I highly suggest that you get a CAF membership. CAF members enjoy many benefits, including more than 65 free tours and annual 2 for 1 tickets for CAF’s most popular tour, the Architecture River Cruise. With individual memberships at only $55 it’s a steal!

Find out more information on our memberships page and then get out and see your city, Chicago!

One city…one year…85 tours…

Around Chicago in 85 Tours Challenge

From January through December 2010, I have challenged myself to take all of the Chicago Architecture Foundation’s 85 tours. I’ll be walking, biking, bussing, boating, and Segway-ing all around the city and surrounding areas learning about the rich architectural history of Chicago. All of the tours I’m taking are open to the public so come on out and join me!

See. Comment. Share. Connect.
Follow me online as I take the Around Chicago in 85 Tours Challenge. I’ll be posting comments, pictures, videos, questions, interesting facts, interviews, a tour countdown, and even a mile tracker. Comment, share your photos, upload your videos, and connect with others who love our city and its amazing architecture.
