Girls weekend itinerary — Chicago edition 🌆

Everyone needs a girls weekend in Chicago at least once! This thriving city has so many great activities to do and places to explore!

We went to Gilt Bar multiple times because the vibes are simply 10/10! Plus there’s a vintage photo booth in the basement!

Tunnel is a nightclub in Chicago that you might miss if you’re not looking for it! But once you’re inside it’s huge and the music is energetic!

The Chicago train system is impressive and you can get almost anywhere in the city using it! I recommend taking it to the Riverwalk, grabbing a coffee and strolling along the river!

The largest Starbucks in the world calls Chicago home! Visit the Starbucks Reserve Roastery and explore this 5 level Starbucks coffee experience!
