Chicago Travel Site

Anyone know the best way to reach Highland Park from downtown Michigan Avenue Chicago? I need to go on Friday and have a lot of luggage so taking the train is not a good option for me. Suggestions of taxis, limo services, other ideas? How much should this cost? What companies should I contact?

Can anyone tell me the distance - in miles - from Chicago, IL, to Lancaster, PA and back? Visiting friends in Lancaster but I don’t know the train details or distances at all!!
Thanks.

I will traveling there between Xmas and New years with my 9 year old grandson (it’s his Xmas present), and looking for some fun things with him and some good places to dine. Is there anything to do with trains or toy trains? We will be coming there from Chicago by Amtrak. What is a good mode of transportation? we will only be there 2 days and will only be downtown. Thanks.

We are taking the South shore railroad from south bend, in to chicago, il to go to the shed’s aquarium museum and are looking for the fastest route to get there. We have never been on the train or to the aquarium and the railroad website is very vague and confusing to us.

If i buy the $5 1 day pass can i use it on both the buses and trains?

I have an interview and was wondering what their salary is like? How is their training program? How long? Thanks!

I mean a huge, life-altering change.

I’m about to drive to Chicago, IL for some job training and sometime after that I’ll be moving there.

I’m scared s**tless.

I’m going to be taking my first day trip to Chicago. I’m thinking of taking the Metra train either from Kenosha or Waukegan. Are there any tips or hints from anyone when taking the metra. I also see there is a $5 weekend pass but I can’t find where to purchase those. Are they at the stations and does there have to be an attendant as I know not all stations have one? Then, once I get there, I see there are free trolleys to get around. Is there an abundance or would it be better to take the bus? I’m looking to do a few tourist things, Shedd aquarium, Navy Pier maybe, a museum, and would love to catch some really good authentic Chinese food. Any recommendations on that would be great also! Thank you!

Hey nice internetizens!

I am coming to Chicago for a 48 hour film festival, and I will be driving in from downstate. I am only bringing two big bags with me, so I will be mobile on foot for buses or train access. My main question is, since I have only a little money to sustain me for the week,

Does anyone know a cheap way to park my car in the city, or a way to park outside the city, and bring my two heavy bags into the area near the Hancock building?

I’m open to walking a couple miles for the right deal, but obviously, the closer the better. And if it helps, I have a student I.D. from a community college down here in Peoria.
Thanks in advance!
