Chicago Shoreline Adventure Boat Tour

Adventurous & knowledgeable • very well worth it‼️ #GoYachti

This is the best service!. Liam, the owner and operator, is a super nice guy, and very responsive to our requests, and then quick to follow through. The entire experience was truly 5-star. I continue to recommend them to anyone looking to meet up with boaters on the water or needing a ride back to shore. I wish it had been around years ago. THANK YOU, YACHTI ADVENTURE TOURS, TENDER, and CHARTERS!

Highly recommend for anyone needing a quick water taxi! Communication arranging my ride was excellent, worked with me on short notice. Yachti is a reliable and safe way to get around by water!!

Our time with Liam of Yachti Charters was absolutely amazing. He is so knowledgeable we were able to enjoy Lake Michigan on the water as well as learn a ton of interesting historical facts. Would recommend to all. Was WONDERFUL!!!

Definitely love being on the water tickets were easy to get and they have a military discount. You are sure to smile when you get on the deck and see the beautiful water

Liam is GREAT! Great communication. Picked me up and dropped me off at the right location in a speedy and safe fashion. I highly recommend him and trust him! Will be using his services going forward!!!

This was such a unique and fun tour for our small group of girls for my bachelorette weekend! Liam was super knowledgeable about the Chicago skyline and made the tour a great balance of historic factoids and exciting adventure with speeding/turns around the lake. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a more unique aquatic/boat experience other than your standard booze cruise.

So, here's a different kind of review- I cannot comment on Yachti as a tour, tender, or charter company, but I can reference its owner/operator Liam. I've utilized Liam's services twice to help with sailboat mast work, and both projects have been completed successfully (one with some greater challenges). Most notably, Liam's character and sense of professionalism and dedication to the projects was of the highest caliber. Not only does he do the job right, he is pleasant company in the process, even with some risky conditions. It's easy to find a boat captain to ferry people from point to point; it's another thing to find an operator with such personal standing. Liam is a cut above!

Yachti’s water taxi service made our day on the lake run so smoothly and saved us hours of time! Liam and the crew at Yachti are incredibly professional and very punctual. In my opinion, this is the most convenient way to get to and from a boat charter mid day without having to waste time going back to the harbor. During our charter, we had a few people who needed to leave early and Yachti saved the larger group a trip back while helping my friends get to shore and make their flight on time. We also used them to complete the last mile of a spontaneous pizza order to the boat and keep the party going! I will definitely use their service again and highly recommend them to anyone who needs a water taxi.

My girlfriend and I went on the Adventure Tour in early October last year, and it was an exceptional experience. Our captain, Liam, was incredibly professional and attentive throughout the entire trip. When we encountered a boat issue, he quickly resolved and more than made up for it. One of the highlights of our entire trip was the special tour that Liam treated us to. Not only did he showcase the beautiful sights of Chicago, but he also provided us with a wealth of historical knowledge, making the experience all the more enjoyable. Overall, I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a memorable experience on Lake Michigan. Liam's dedication to ensuring a seamless trip, combined with his expertise and professionalism, make Goyachti a top choice for anyone looking to explore the waters in style.

We had a blast! Liam was amazing - we even had a snafu with TripAdvisor communicating the booking, but it did not matter, Liam pivoted on a moments notice and wanted to make sure we got on the water and enjoyed ourselves. We had teenagers with us, including an exchange student from Italy, and they were laughing so hard they were crying while Liam maneuvered the boat around the lake. The small size of the boat really makes it feel as if you have the entire Chicago skyline to yourself, it's different than any other tour you can book - a nice balance of history for the adults and speed and adrenaline for the teenagers! We highly recommend this for those seeking a more unique option and for those who like a bit of speed and fun with their tour :)

Wow! Liam knows how to steer a boat and great knowledge on the area. A really fun trip. Thank you Liam 😊 would recommend! Definitely a memorable experience!

What a great way to spend time on the water, see the city from a different perspective, go fast, turn fast, and learn some fascinating history from a fascinating guide. I don't know what other guides are out there, but I can't imagine there could be a better one than Liam.

Liam gave us a great tour with many stories, historical facts and tidbits. We also loved the fast turns and speed! The teens in our group loved his entertaining stories and of course speeding across Lake Michigan at top speed! Liam loves Chicago and its history as well as boats. He helped us to love them too.

This was amazing!!! I would highly recommend it. Liam is extremely knowledgeable and very entertaining. Great combination of exciting fast speeds and quick turns and sitting at all the right locations so that we could learn about this beautiful city. The tour is great for all ages. The boat has a fascinating history. Make sure you ask about it!!!

Just say yes to Yachti! Liam is fun and knowledgeable about the area, by the end of the tour we felt like he was a long time friend just along for the ride! I was a little bummed at first that the weather didn't cooperate and give us a hot sunny day but that could not damper the trip that Liam gave us! We had a blast going fast and making hair pin turns as well as slowing down and taking in the sites of the city skyline and navy pier. I can't say enough about what a great time we had. Swimming off the side of the boat, sharing laughs and snacks, enjoying the majestic lake Michigan. I would highly recommend Yachti Adventure Tours to a friend. Absolutely loved our time!

Such a fun experience and kind and genuine people that want to provide a fun and safe experience. If you're looking for a fun ride, 10/10 recommend!

I would highly recommend this tour. Liam is a phenomenal story teller and brings the city to life with historical details that you may have never known even being a lifetime Chicago area resident. His knowledge and ability to share is second to none. This tour is unique in every aspect and if you think you have done a history or boat tour before - there is no comparison - don't miss this one! Part adventure, part historic, 100% fun and engaging!

How personalized this trip can be. The little Navy War Boat was a unique way to see the shoreline, close to the water. It was like flying or skimming the water.

This boat tour was the highlight of our trip! Liam is incredibly knowledgeable and personable and made the tour interseting and lots of fun on the water. Would recommend this tour to families - my 14 year old son really enjoyed it!

Liam took us out on a epic cruise of chicagos skyline. Always dependable! Always a great time! Highly highly recommended. Very reliable!

Go yachti was a fantastic experience ! Liam is very knowledgeable and a great captain! Definitely got some good speed and sharp turns which made the whole experience even more fun. If you are debating booking this , just do it !

Antonio was our tour guide and he did an amazing job. Very knowledgeable and made the tour exciting!

My friends and I had a great time on the luxury yacht! It was large enough to fit our party comfortably and the crew was fun and amazing. I would definitely recommend if you’re looking to enjoy the lake.

Yachti is a game changer. I’ve lived in Chicago my whole life and I will never get over how beautiful she is from the lake. Away from the hustle, serene out on the water, the experience is just good for my soul. It used to be rare to get that (usually only when friends and family came in from out of town and you took them on a crowded touristy boat). Yachti has made the lake not only more accessible, but also more peaceful and personal. The crew seems to genuinely care about your experience and have servant’s hearts. I’ve worked in customer care for years, and that’s rare to find. Highly recommend!

Booking Yachti was the best decision we made on our trip to Chicago! Getting to see the city from out on the water was the icing on the cake for our weekend trip! Thanks for such a great time!

Had a great time out on the water! Definitely would recommend seeing the city from the water to anyone

I booked an adventure tour with Yachti while some friends were in town last summer. Captain Liam had our group entertained throughout the whole tour! The online booking process was super smooth, too. I will absolutely book with Yachti again next time friends or family are in town! Thanks Liam for an unforgettable experience!

This is such fun! Takes about 75 minutes or so to complete the tour. The tour guides are very knowledgeable and provide so much information, and great fun facts. Plenty of time to take good photos of the skyline from many different areas of the river. There is a bathroom on board on the lower level, and drinks can be purchased on the lower level as well. Really fun way to spend some time on a nice day in Chicago.

I rented a boat to have a guys night and the captain made the night even better then we hoped. Thanks for a dope night.

Such a fun time with Liam our guide for this tour. Awesome boat ride and very knowledgeable on Chicago history. Had us cracking up at some of the crazy things that happened in Chicago over the years.

Highly recommend the fireworks tour! Liam is a great host. The tour went off without a hitch, starting & ending promptly, with so much fun in between. I definitely plan on booking this tour again in the future!

What an amazing time! I was fortunate to get to go out for a sunrise morning trip with Yachti. Liam was extremely knowledgeable when it came to the history of Chicago. You can tell he loves his city and strives to make the adventure tour something where you can learn about Chicago but also have a fun time. I had the chance to also head into the river and it was really cool seeing the city from the water. Snapped some awesome photos and will not forget this awesome experience!

Had a great time, lovely boat, knowledgeable captain. I Would definitely recommend Liam and Yachti!!

This was by far the best way to start the summer. The Ex Military Speed Boat Yachti not only gives you a knowledgeable tour, you get a thrill ride too...Highly recommend this on your bucket list this summer

The adventure tour was an exhilarating way to get a whole new perspective of the city! Loved every minute of it.

I've been living in Chicago for three years now but this was the first year I got to spend any time out on Lake Michigan. I can't imagine a better way to see the city than on the Yachti Adventure Tour. A fantastic mix of history of the city, fun on the lake, and with the beautiful city as a backdrop. The Chicago skyline at sunset is one of my favorite sights. Captain Liam is charming, knowledgable and made feel safe and welcome the entire time. Can't wait to come back and check out the Fireworks Tour next time!

Liam is a great captian! He's a fun, charismatic guy with a lot of knowledge about Chicago. Really glad I chose Yachti for my first time on the lake. I will definitely go out with them again.

I love Chicago and rode many of the normal boat rides. I wanted to be on a boat with a smaller group. Yachti had this Adventure Tour boat ride for 1 1/2 hours. This boat seats six. It was a former Navy Seals boat. It just happened my teen sons and I were the only ones signed up for the tour time. Liam our Captain was awesome!!! He drove fast with some fun turns. He is full of knowledge with Chicago’s history! We had a blast! I would definitely ride this again.
