Las Vegas to Chicago: Everything You Need To Know

Chicago is a wonderland of museums, architecture, arts, and lake recreation. The city makes a memorable travel destination for families and is a sophisticated getaway for adult travelers. 

The downtown Chicago area is packed with treats for tourists. The Magnificent Mile is a stretch of Michigan Avenue filled with posh shopping and elegant restaurants. You’ll glimpse Navy Pier’s iconic Ferris wheel in the distance. The pier itself is a tourist-friendly attraction with restaurants, museums, and Instagrammable views. Just grab an Uber to make the 8-minute trip from the Magnificent Mile to Navy Pier.

Just south of the Mile and Navy Pier, you’ll find Millennium Park, where you can visit the city’s famous Cloud Gate sculpture, affectionally known as The Bean. Be sure to walk underneath, where you’ll see many versions of yourself reflected in the shiny curved surfaces. Below the Bean is an ice-skating rink that’s popular in winter.

Chicago’s museums are mostly located near one another, so it’s doable to make a day or two of it. You can arrange admission to the Art Institute of Chicago, the Field Museum, the Museum of Science and Industry, Adler Planetarium, and Shedd Aquarium using discount passes, or take advantage of their free day schedule. 

The Windy City offers a lot of great entertainment, ranging from Second City comedy to classic operas at the Lyric Opera House. Sports fans will be thrilled to tour Wrigley Field or see the Cubs or Bulls play a home game. 

Definitely carve out time to visit Lake Michigan on the eastern edge of the city. The water stretches all the way to the horizon — with seagulls circling overhead, it’s hard to remember that you’re not looking at an ocean. Its freshwater beaches are a lovely place to spend the day, but most visitors like to get on the water for a day cruise or a riverboat dinner at sunset. 

Speaking of dinner, be sure to try Chicago’s famous deep-dish pizza while you’re in the city. Giordano’s and Gino’s East are popular choices near Millennium Park.

Pro Tip: Get the most out of your flight from Las Vegas to Chicago by visiting the suburban village of Schaumberg. Here you’ll find a charming historic downtown area, Legoland Discovery Center, a sculpture park, and the Medieval Times franchise, making the town worth a weekend all by itself.
