Grandparents/Grandchildren Day in Chicago

Think back (many years, I know) to your own grandparents. I know they were some of the most important people in our lives. The values they imparted to us and the memories they created, still remain today. That is why I am excited about this opportunity Tri-State Travel has for us on a one-day trip to Chicago. The date is Wednesday, June 26, 2019, right in the middle of summer vacation.

Think of how amazing it will be to take your grandchildren to the Lincoln Park Zoo! This zoo is one of the premier animal habitats in the country. We will spend 3 ½ hours discovering all of the animal wildlife there is to see, from tiny mice to massive blue whales! The zoo was created in 1868 and houses both exotic and regular wildlife. It is composed of 35 acres of specially created enclosures that are guaranteed to surprise and impress us all! The gorilla and ape house is one of the best and most exciting for all ages. The zoo offers unmatchable learning opportunities for everyone. There is a special Children’s Zoo for the younger ones, and a Merry-Go-Round that will thrill us all. There are several dining areas for rest and relaxation. None of us will forget this exciting trip to the zoo, and I know your grandchildren will remember this trip forever!

After the zoo, and lunch on your own, we will go to the well-known Navy Pier for our 75 minute cruise aboard one of the boats from Seadog Cruises. We will travel through the Chicago Locks and up the Chicago River. Our trip will be narrated with amusing stories and facts about Chicago’s history, and we will see all the famous buildings along the Lakefront!

The cost of this bonding opportunity with your grandchildren is $100 per adult, and $94.00 for each child, ages 4 – 13. Call Tri-State Travel at (563) 359- 1682 today, and get onboard for this great trip! Remember, you have your choice of convenient pick-up locations – either Davenport or Moline.
