We had an OK time. The pier is nice and the musis is nice. The rides are alright. We only rode a couple because the others didn't look that great. We rode the motion simulator which I thought was pretty lame. You really didn't feel like you were going through these places on the screen like you are supposed too. The Ferris Wheel looked fun, but didn't ride because it was down. It was moving REALLY slow though when it did open back up. We went in the Fun House and that was pretty fun. We enjoyed it. We then did the Mini Golf. It really needs to be updated. All the holes are pretty much the same and it really isn't up to par with other putt-putt courses. The "grass" needed to be removed because it looked very old and torn. The flowers around it were like pretty much all dead or trampled on too. It seemed like it needed a lot more care than it was being given.

Overall we had an ok time and would come back. It could use some improvements.

Navy Pier is easily accesible on foot, but wow, there were so many people! It's very family friendly with lots of fun eating places and rides and stuff, but I had already eaten and wasn't interested in games and rides. My main objectives were to get a fun souvenir and to enjoy some nice scenery. There was a fun magnet store inside the bland indoor mall, but it was difficult to enjoy the surroundings with all the people there. Kids will really enjoy the fun atmosphere, but it's definitely more busy than relaxing at the Navy Pier.

Navy Pier is a fun place to ride some nice rides, enjoy some pretty scenery, and catch a great boat ride! Eat before or after your visit, the restaurants are not the best! The ferris wheel is so much fun and offers a great view of the city! The Shoreline Sightseeing Tour is enjoyable and offers a great photo opportunity. We enjoyed our visit very, very much. Don't eat at Bubba Gump...it's a tourist trap! Overall, a don't miss stop on a Chicago visit!

We were there the beginning of October and the weather was great . The most outstanding part of our visit was the FREE stained galss exhibit . There were many works by Tiffany.
They could easily have charged for this exhibit and it still would have been a good deal.
