Conseils aux voyageurs
Se déplacer dans les environs
Trains are the fastest way to get around.
I prefer trains over buses but to each their own. The safest lines are brown, yellow, and blue. If you have to take the red line please be careful because that one can be dangerous. Just be aware of your surroundings and if you are lost ask CTA personnel and not random people on the street.
Réservez avant de partir
Most downtown restaurants require reservations!
If you are looking to do anything downtown be sure to check if reservations are required. Many places still require reservations due to covid.
Que faut-il apporter ?
Always bring warm clothes to Chicago, just in case.
Our Chicago weather can be spontaneous. One moment it can be 80 degrees and sunny and a few hours later it can drop 30 degrees and snow. I am not joking either, happens often so always be sure to pack something warm, just in case. :)
