Between its breathtaking river views and buildings that stretch to the sky, Chicago can be quite the charming city. Add some strolling with your loved one and a little cheesy love music playing in your head, and you’ve got an instant romantic date. On the History Lovers Tour, you’ll travel through Chicago’s Pedway while making stops at Macy’s (perhaps you could pick up a late Valentine’s gift), City Hall (ready to tie the knot?) and other landmarks. If you’d rather stay in the Pedway and discover all of its twists and turns, go on an adventure with the Pedway Lovers Tour. You’ll walk through almost all of its tunnels and concourses, learning about how the Pedway came to be. You may even be able to sneak off to a dark corner and give your sweetheart a quick peck. To add a little more spice to your Valentine’s plans, go on the Pedway Pub Crawl, which stops at popular bars like Houlihan’s, the Hyatt Big Bar and Tavern at the Park. Even better — your first beer or well drink is on the tour guide. We’re willing to bet after a couple of stops, the Pedway tunnels will look a little more twisty than before. Swoop in on today’s deal for plans that are guaranteed to leave your loved one swooning.
