Shoreline Sightseeing, established in 1939, began with one vessel offering Lake Michigan Boat Tours showcasing Chicago's fabulous skyline. Now in our third generation of family ownership and operation, Shoreline has a fleet of nine touring vessels and eleven water taxis. In 1996, Shoreline brought the first Water Taxis to Chicago. In 1999, we began our very successful Architecture Cruises on the Chicago River. Between 1999 and 2003 Shoreline commissioned three brand new vessels for their touring fleet: Star of Chicago, Evening Star, and Bright Star. Shoreline recently added two more custom outfitted vessels: Celebration in 2005 and Voyageur in 2006. All our touring vessels have been custom built or custom modified to offer our passengers the highest standards of comfort and safety.
