What if you could fly over Chicago in just 30 minutes, from the river to the lakefront, without ever leaving your seat? Flyover at Navy Pier makes it happen: a jaw-dropping immersive ride that lifts you above the Windy City for a perspective you will never forget.
The adventure starts on the ground, where stories and local color connect you with the true spirit of Chicago. Then the theater comes alive: suspended in motion, you soar over, around and through the city’s most remarkable places, with scenes captured by an award-winning creative team using custom-made drones and helicopter-mounted cameras.
It is not just the visuals that take your breath away. Scents, sounds and music deepen the immersion, so you can almost feel the lake breeze and hear the city hum as you glide past its icons. The whole experience, from welcome to landing, takes about 30 minutes, and it runs rain or shine, making it a perfect plan for any day.
Rated 4.69 out of 5 by hundreds of visitors and with tickets from $27.95, Flyover is one of the most delightful family experiences in Chicago, and a wonderful first stop to decide which real-life sights you want to explore next.
