Chicago has two supertall observation decks, they are among the best things to do in the CHI. Which one is better -- 360 Chicago & Tilt vs Skydeck & The Ledge?
The John Hancock Center & Sears Tower are two of the Windy City's most iconic skyscrapers and as of 2021 are the only ones to offer observation decks to the general public.

Want those epic views from the John Hancock Center (875 North Michigan Avenue) but don't want to pay for admission to 360 Chicago? Be sure to check out the Signature Lounge!

Have you been to 360 Chicago and/or Skydeck Chicago? Which do you prefer?

@VNeisler82 2 жыл бұрын

I have family in Chicago,so I have done both. I’d say that I certainly enjoy the view from the Hancock,more than the view from the Sears Tower. Skydeck and TILT are both “must do” when visiting Chicago,though!

Best way to book for tickets??

@chicitygamer Жыл бұрын

I haven’t been to the John Hancock in years but recently went to the Skydeck but I tend to agree that the views are better at the John Hancock.

I miss my Chicago! I will always refer to Willis Tower as Sears Tower. I grew up in Chicago. I moved to NC and I've been here 20 years. Best food will always be in Chicago. It's still the best for many things.

@jmoney-z5561 Жыл бұрын

Personally as a Chicago area resident, John Hancock is considered to be the best. The Sears Tower is great and has amazing views. Frankly, I don’t consider it to be the best imo. John Hancock feels like your in the center city and part of the vibrant metropolis. Overall John Hancock would be my observation deck!

Oh wow I so did not know that it no longer had the John Hancock name! Yes I so agree that the tilt was a bit of disappointment. I went up both of them fairly recently. They really need to clean the windows because they're full of a lot of dirty spots and that makes taking good pictures more difficult. I will say though, I live in Chicago and I prefer the Sears Tower. Prior to the elevator, the Hancock is mostly information to read while the Sears Tower has a lot of things you can take good pictures with like the huge Chicago sign, the mics on the stage, the huge displays of important people of Chicago's history, and the fake CTA. I just feel it makes it more exciting.

@MsTia0123 2 жыл бұрын

Hey Carlos! What do you mean prior to the elevators? I’m reading comments to determine which one to visit while there with my husband.

@carloscaycho8641 2 жыл бұрын

@@MsTia0123 Hey! I'm talking the elevators that take you to the observation deck. I'd highly recommend the Sears Tower! I disagree with what a lot of people here say that you can't get a view of the lake. It's not as good of a view as from the Hancock but it's still good, in my opinion. Also the Sears Tower has the ledge that you can stand on and literally a glass will be between you and the street 103 floors below. The views are epic. If you have any questions on where to go and what to do, let me know and I'd be happy to help! 😊

I was just at the Skydeck yesterday. It was amazing. I've done Tilt twice. Loved it. And that outdoor porch. Hancock has better water views because of its location. Willis has better City views since its 90 feet higher and further into the city.
