Flyover is an indoor simulated flying experience at Navy Pier. You're suspended in moving seats in front of a massive curved screen, with wind, mist, sound, and other effects making you feel like you're soaring over Chicago Incredible views of Chicago's skyline and landmarks. Feels similar to Disney's Soarin' ride. Great indoor activity when Chicago weather is cold. Exciting visuals and realistic motion effects.

Charles_G, Nov 2026
Nice, but would like to see movie go slower. It was more of a thrill ride than an informative ride thru Chicago

Best Chicago experience yet!!!

Ciara_G, Oct 2026
It was an experience!!!! Everyone that’s visits Chicago should definitely experience the fly over it was beautiful !!

Maybe a little more...

Virginia_B, Oct 2026
Maybe a little more description of what to expect. More explanation of the movements as if riding the front seat of a roller coaster.

Disappointing

Melissa_H, Oct 2026
The skyscrapers were bent which really spoils the effect. The image was out of focus which was also distracting. Overall definitely something that upu can give a miss. Much too expensive for the experience

Fly over

sharronda_E, Oct 2026
Its located at the navy pier. Parking was $35. They take you through 2 rooms first before the actual room. The experience is about 15 mins. The kids enjoyed it.

Exhilarating!!!!!!

Wee_M, Oct 2026
Absolutely unexpected experience, love the introduction. Well thought out view of our city!!! A must do adventure for all.

The Kams over Chicago

Kamieria_T, Oct 2026
At first I was scared and nervous but then I was like this is cool. My boyfriend loved it and we might do it again. My only knit pick was how long it took to board the ride but great time flying over Chicago lol I had one eye open it felt to real for me

Flyover is a Must!

Aurbandy_J, Oct 2026
Flyover is a must when visiting Chicago, especially for the first time! So far it bas been the highlight of our trip!

Fly Over Chicago.

Sandra_B, Oct 2026
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Incredible Experience! Flyover Chicago was absolutely amazing! From beginning to end, it was such a fun and exhilarating experience. The breathtaking scenery, incredible visuals, and sensation of soaring through the air made it feel like I was actually flying. Whether you’re visiting Chicago or live in the area, this is an attraction you shouldn’t miss. I would absolutely do it again. I only wish it lasted a little longer.

The title I would give my review would be "Don't Stop Believing"

Sonya_L, Oct 2026
So actually this is our hometown me and my husband we still reside here however, this was our first time. From the beginning until the end I love how we were given a presentation and the breakdown of what our beautiful city Chicago is like. And how we are believers and how we strive to make it and keep pressing. We reeeeaaaaallly enjoyed the Fly Over part it was so amazing we will definitely be back I can't believe it took us this long to do this the customer service was amazing as well everything was tip too notch quality.Agaun we will be back thank you all so much for your hospitality.

Fly Over Chicago

Jordyn_B, Oct 2026
Don’t go if you’re afraid of heights or get motion sickness, have epilepsy, don’t like flying, don’t like rollercoasters. This was trippy! Everyone else in my group loved it. It’s definitely a way to see all of Chicago! It was a cool experience!

4d at its best

Dominique_S, Oct 2026

Melisa_A, Oct 2026
Ive tried multiple tourist attractions to get a good view of Chicago and this was by far the best way. Would recommend

My youngest wouldn't be...

Gamil_E, Oct 2026
My youngest wouldn't be admitted to ride and I couldn't get a refund for her ticket and I had to miss out on the ride too because I had to stay with her

Fun but Short

Brian_L, Oct 2026
It's fun, but very short. Would like the flyover to have been over more Chicago neighborhoods. I think it would have been a more holistic experience.

Fun adventure for everyone

Vincent_S, Oct 2026
Fun escape and adventure. It makes you feel like a kid again. I highly recommend this for family, friends, and visitor

Amazing adventure

Cheryl_P, Oct 2026
