Anyone got any other general tips/suggestions for Chicago? I'm heading through to run the marathon. I arrive on a Thursday afternoon and depart on the Monday evening, the marathon is on the Sunday morning so the rest of that day will be a write-off for doing anything afterwards.
Is the bus tour any good for $35/$40 for a day pass? Thinking I might not be too keen on doing much walking around on the Monday.
I'm thinking of picking up a CityPass which seems to be reasonable value for the main attractions (e.g Willis Tower, Field Museum, etc) and includes fast-track access to avoid some queuing. I've got a ticket for Kanye West on the Friday and I'm also looking to snag a Chicago Bulls ticket for a pre-season game on the Saturday evening.
