Chicago Trolley Company offers guided tours on a fleet of rubber-wheeled "San Francisco-style" trolleys that stop at a number of popular spots around the city, including Navy Pier, the Grant Park museums, the Museum of Science and Industry, Lincoln Park Zoo, and the cluster of theme restaurants in River North (Hard Rock Cafe, Planet Hollywood, and so on). You can stay on for the full 1 1/2-hour ride or get on and off at each stop. The same company also operates the Chicago Double Decker Company, which has a fleet of London-style, red, two-story buses. The buses follow the same route as the trollies; if you buy an all-day pass, you can hop from bus to trolley at any point.
