If you're visiting Chicago, one of the most iconic sights you'll want to see is the Willis Tower. The skyscraper is known around the world for its incredible height and panoramic views of the city.
There are several options for getting a great view from the tower, but one of the most unique experiences is stepping out on 'The Ledge' at 103 floors up. This glass floor balcony juts out from the side of the building and offers unparalleled views of the city on a clear day.
You can take a bus, rent a bike or hop on a water taxi for a trip to Willis Tower. You can also rent a bicycle from one of the many Divvy stations in town and deposit it near Willis Tower to save you a few bucks on transportation.
If you’re looking for a good view of the city, try going on weekday mornings when crowds are smallest. You can expect to wait about an hour in the line, but that will give you a chance to enjoy the amazing sights without all the other tourists.
If you're planning on visiting the tower, be sure to bring a pair of good sunglasses and waterproof shoes. You'll want to keep your eyes open for the amazing city lights, so be prepared to take lots of photos!
