The tour is about 90 minutes long. Tes I would say so but it is not a place that kids can run around.

Yes, the main cabin is climate controlled.

Morning is often less crowded. The tours however, are the same.

They are both architecture tours. The Lake and River Architecture Tour visits the Main Branch of the river to the Junction, then heads through the Chicago Lock onto Lake Michigan. The River Architecture Tour takes a trip on the North Branch of the river to Goose island and the South Branch to Chinatown in addition to the Main Branch up to, but not on the lake. The cost is the same for both.

The are both architecture tours. The 45 minute tour travels on the South to the Willis Tower and main branch, up to the lake. The 90 minute tour also goes on the North Branch, and all the way to Chinatown on the South Branch.

I would recommend calling or contacting Wendella Tours directly for this information. Their website has a direct phone and email contact as well.

The River Architechture Tour is just in the river. That is the one we took. It was windy that day so we didn't do the longer tour with the Lake portion. There is plenty of room on the tour boats. We reserved a spot the night before at the time we wanted to go so it fit into our travel schedule. Seating is random. They sell tickets up to the maximum capacity for the boats. Ours was not full and it was a prime time. I don't know their cancellation policy but I did see people changing times at the kiosk while we were picking up our tickets. They appeared to be very accommodating.
