Did you know that you can take a nighttime kayak trip along the Chicago River and see a spectacular river of lights? Let’s take a trip with Kayak Chicago on the City Lights Night Paddle. This nighttime river float in Illinois is a remarkable way to see Chicago.

Most people take to the skyscrapers to get stunning views of Chicago, however, there’s nothing like seeing the spectacular Chicago skyline from a kayak in the Chicago River. With Kayak Chicago, you can do just that and even better, you can do it at night!

When the sun sets, a unique tour gets underway. The City Lights Night Paddle is great for people of any experience level and the guides are friendly and helpful and will make the tour a breeze. No experience is required, but you must be able to physically paddle the kayak.

Seeing towers of lights surrounding you and the reflections on the water is a magical way to explore downtown. I’ll bet you’ve never seen the city like this!

Some of the buildings turn themselves into works of art that are beyond the architecture as they are lit up with extraordinary colors and patterns.

The scintillating scenery will fill you with a sense of wonder and awe at the beauty of this city at night. This is truly one of the most wonderful ways to experience it.

For an extra special treat, take the fireworks tour and get even more of an amazing light show! A sky full of fireworks, while surrounded by beautiful architecture, is truly something!
