Wills Tower FAQs

It's hard to miss Willis Tower amidst the Chicago skyline. Located along the beautiful Chicago River that runs directly through the heart of the city, Willis Tower is characterized by its dark, sleek exterior and geometric design.

Willis Tower outshines all other buildings in its vicinity – at 110 stories high, visitors get a bird's eye view of the Windy City.

Willis Tower is home to 100+ companies in the heart of Chicago. To get to the top – the SkyDeck – adult tickets start at $24. Discounted tickets are available for children aged 3-11, and children under 3 can enter for free.

At 110 stories tall, Willis Tower literally towers over the Chicago skyline. Formerly known as Sears Tower, it claims the title of the 12th tallest building in the world and is the 3rd tallest building in North America (and the Western Hemisphere).

It was an inexpensive way to see 3 great experiences in Chicago. I highly recommend it. I went on the ferris wheel, went y to the aquarium and the best things was the architecture tour.

About: Willis Tower

It used to be the Sears Tower, but in 2009, London-based insurance broker Willis Group Holdings acquired the naming rights. No matter what you call it (everybody still refers to it as Sears Tower), it's an architectural icon. When it was built in 1973 it was the tallest building in the world. It's now 14th-tallest, but offers unrivaled views of the Windy City, and sees more than a million visitors each year.
