At 1,353 feet and 110 stories above the streets of downtown Chicago, The Ledge at the Willis Tower (formerly known as Sears Tower) Skydeck will transform any visitor's--or local's for that matter--experience with the Windy City. In January 2009, Willis Tower owners began a major renovation of the beloved Skydeck, which originally opened in 1974, and served as a premier tourist attraction throughout the skyscraper's tenure as the Sears Tower. When ownership changed hands, the fresh blood added a fresh look--and adrenaline rush--to the 103rd floor in the form of retractable glass balconies extending about 4 feet over Wacker Drive and the Chicago River below. Still the 8th tallest building in the world, and the absolute tallest in the Western Hemisphere, Willis Tower's Skydeck draws 1.5 million people a year who are eager to ascend the 110-story, 1,454 foot (443 meter) building for awesome panoramic views of the city and surrounding countryside. Your journey to the top of the Willis Tower starts with a walk through an airport-style metal detector, followed by a slow elevator ride down to the waiting area where visitors queue for tickets. A sign will tell you how long you'll have to wait to get up high; this is a good time to confirm the visibility. Even days that seem sunny can have upper-level haze that limits the view. On good days, however, you can see for 40 to 50 miles (64 to 80 kilometers), as far as the states of Indiana, Michigan. Iowa, and Wisconsin. While you wait, you can watch a film about Willis Tower factoids. Then you'll wait a little longer before the ear-popping, 70 second elevator ride up to the 103rd floor deck. From here, the entire city stretches below, and you can see exactly how Chicago is laid out. Willis Tower, Skydeck, and The Ledge Fast Facts The hundreds of forehead prints visitors left behind each week on Skydeck windows served as this inspiration for The Ledge. The Ledge boxes can each bear about 4-1/2 metric tons of weight, and adventurers who trust that statistic enough to prove it can often be found jumping and bounding around the entirely translucent enclosures as Chicago's heavy traffic and infrastructure bustle below. The Ledge’s glass panels weight 1,500 pounds apiece, and each box is comprised of three layers of half-inch thick glass laminated into one seamless unit. In addition to serving 1.3 million tourists per year in its 4.5+ million square feet of space, Willis Tower is home to more than 100 companies, including prominent law, insurance, transportation, and financial services. The Ledge's glass boxes retract into the Skydeck main floor for easy maintenance, mostly cleaning off the 974 dead birds that must fly into them every month. The Moonwalk is the most popular dance performed on The Ledge, followed closely by the Running Man. Riverdance clocks in at a distant third. Bringing people who are afraid of heights to The Ledge is not recommended, unless you are mean-spirited or really don't like them. In which case, you should probably just take them here. Willis Tower was known as Sears Tower for decades, until the 30th anniversary of Diff'rent Strokes, at which point it was rightfully renamed.
Reptile House Crocosaurus Cove presents the World’s largest display of Australian Reptiles, with over 70 species of reptiles on display in your reptile enclosure. Most reptiles on display are from the Northern Territory’s Top End and Kimberley region, however be sure to check out our new Desert region which is home to a range of species found in Australia’s Red Centre. A reptile can be described as a vertebrate (ie has a backbone) that derives it’s body temperature from an external source, such as the sun. It’s body is covered in skin from which grow scales. Some scales are very difficult to see as found on geckos, while other reptiles have modified scales that create a suit of armour or plating as seen in turtles.

Conozca la gran dama de la ciudad de Nueva York desde cerca y personalmente con el tour a la Estatua de la Libertad.
El recorrido empieza con un poco de contexto, visitando sitios alrededor de Battery Park. Allí los monumentos conmemorativos rara vez reciben la atención que merecen, como los visitantes con prisa para subir al ferri. Las historias que tienen para contar merecen la pena, de manera que emplearemos menos tiempo en el Monumento Nacional del castillo Clinton, Pier A Harbor House, el memorial a los marineros comerciantes americanos, The Sphere y el memorial a los veteranos de guerra de Corea.
A continuación, saldrá hacia la isla de la Libertad, con entrada exprés para el ferri, de tal manera que no deberá hacer colas y podrá conseguir los mejores asientos - y como que salimos tan temprano (normalmente en el primer ferri, dependiendo de la época del año), llegará a la estatua antes que las grandes multitudes. Una vez allí, podrá disfrutar de fabulosas vistas de la ciudad y de un recorrido guiado que le llevará al pedestal, permitiéndole acercarse a la gran dama más que en una visita normal.
Allí su guía le hablará sobre este icono de la ciudad. Fue un regalo a América de parte de Francia y fue diseñado por arquitectos incluyendo Gustav Eiffel (cuya torre parisina le pueda ser familiar) aunque no fue acogida como se pensaba. Con un guía experto, aprenderá sobre la problemática y qué la hizo tan especial para la gente de Nueva York.
A continuación, volverá al ferri y se dirigirá a la isla Ellis, donde podrá seguir los pasos de 12 millones de inmigrantes. Con su guía experto, aprenderá sobre el largo proceso que las personas pasaron, caminará por las Escaleras de la Separación para entender los 2 nombres tan diferentes de la isla – ‘The Island of Hope’ (la isla de la esperanza) y ‘The Island of Tears’ (la isla de las lágrimas). Explorará la colección y las exposiciones interactivas de museo, con la oportunidad de hacer preguntas a su guía. El tour finaliza en la isla Ellis, así que podrá permanecer un rato más en la isla, o podrá volver en ferri con el guía.
Con pequeños grupos de 20 personas o menos, y saliendo en uno de los primeros ferris de la mañana, le aseguramos un viaje tranquilo y relajado, eliminando el estrés y frustraciones de una visita normal.

Tour guiado por la Estatua de la Libertad y el Museo de la isla Ellis.
