Shoreline Sightseeing is Chicago's favorite tour boat company. Shoreline began with one vessel offering Lake Michigan Boat Tours showcasing Chicago’s fabulous skyline. In 1996, Shoreline brought the first Water Taxis to Chicago. In 1999, we began our very successful Architecture Tours on the Chicago River. Between 1999 and 2003 Shoreline commissioned three brand new vessels for its touring fleet: Star of Chicago, Evening Star, and Bright Star. Shoreline recently added three more custom outfitted vessels: Riverview in 2013, Cityview in 2014, Skyview in 2015.
