Explore the masterpieces of the Art Institute of Chicago with a self-guided audio tour.
Housed in a magnificent Beaux-Arts building on Michigan Avenue, the museum features works by Vincent van Gogh, Claude Monet, Pablo Picasso, Edward Hopper, Georgia O’Keeffe, and many other celebrated artists.
Begin on the 1st floor with the art of Asia, discovering Buddhist and Hindu sculptures and traditions spanning thousands of years. Continue to the art of Ancient Greece, Rome, and the Mediterranean before moving into European painting.
On the 2nd floor, admire iconic Impressionist and Post-Impressionist works by Monet, Renoir, Seurat, Van Gogh, and Toulouse-Lautrec. Discover how these artists transformed the way light, colour, and everyday life were represented.
Continue to the Modern Wing for works by O’Keeffe, Warhol, Matisse, Kandinsky, Picasso, and Dalí. Finally, explore American Modernism with Edward Hopper and Grant Wood, then enjoy panoramic views of Chicago from the Bluhm Family Terrace.
The tour takes approximately 2–3 hours and includes maps and text hints to help you navigate the museum.

You should tell people it will take more than a day to go. Or give 1/2 off passes for going 2 days in a row.It is probably actually a 5 star experience done correctly.
