Two days in Chicago might not sound like enough, but with the right plan you can experience the very best this incredible city has to offer and still have time to soak up the atmosphere and wander at your own pace. Start your first morning with coffee and a pastry at one of the charming cafes in the River North neighborhood, then make your way to Millennium Park to see The Bean and enjoy the beautiful surroundings before the crowds arrive. Spend the rest of your morning exploring the Art Institute of Chicago, one of the finest art museums in the world, before heading to the Magnificent Mile for lunch and a browse through the incredible shops and boutiques that line this famous stretch of Michigan Avenue. On your second day, wake up early and head to the Willis Tower for a sunrise view from the Skydeck — it is an experience you will never forget. Then explore one of Chicago’s incredible neighborhoods — Wicker Park for vintage shops and coffee culture, Lincoln Park for its beautiful zoo and lakefront, or Pilsen for its vibrant murals and incredible Mexican food scene. End your weekend with dinner at one of the West Loop’s fantastic restaurants, and raise a glass to one of America’s greatest cities.
