"Boat tour company started in 1935, offering river and lake cruises plus private boat rentals."

Wendella Tours & Cruises is a Chicago-based boat tour company, family-owned since 1935, offering river and lake cruises plus private boat rentals. Wendella runs guided architecture tours on climate-controlled vessels, including 90-minute and 45-minute Chicago River options, as well as sunset cruises, Lake Michigan fireworks cruises, and private events. Founded in 1935, Wendella has operated for over 90 years and holds the official boat tour designation for the Chicago Fire, the Chicago Cubs, and the Northwestern Wildcats. Wendella operates from its main dock at 400 N Michigan Avenue in Chicago, launching from the heart of downtown near the Wrigley Building and DuSable Bridge. Reviewers highlight knowledgeable and entertaining guides, comfortable boats with indoor bars and snack counters, and the appeal of seeing Chicago's skyline and architecture from the water.

This vendor hasn’t completed verification

Verified vendors have uploaded credentials such as a business license or proof of insurance, and our team reviewed each document by hand. Verification is a trust signal, not a requirement: you can still reach out, and payments run through Stripe either way.

Wendella Tours & Cruises hasn't claimed their United Vows profile yet, but you can still reach them.

We don't have an email address on file for Wendella Tours & Cruises, so we can't forward an inquiry to them. The way to reach them today is to call (312) 337-1446. You can still send one here — we'll keep it on your inquiries list, and it will be waiting for them the moment they claim this profile.

Two things worth knowing before you transact:

If your booking happens on United Vows: A $100 United Vows welcome or favor credit, if you hold one — this credit comes off one booking here, in full, funded from our commission on it, once that booking is a booking of $2,900 or more, paid to them in a single payment of at least $1,500 — you get messaging, quotes and contracts in one place, your payment runs securely through Stripe against a signed contract, and if the vendor no-shows, cancels close to your date or delivers nothing you can file a claim from the booking, which they have seven days to answer.
If the booking happens off-platform: none of the above. Your credits don't redeem. We can't help if anything goes sideways.

The simplest move: when you reach out, ask Wendella Tours & Cruises to claim their profile. It's free and takes a few minutes. It keeps your booking on the platform where everything we built for you actually works.
