Cities were often built around rivers because they provide the necessary resources for successful trade and waterpark industries. Take advantage of our forefathers' foresight with this Groupon.

Choose from Three Options

The lakefront speedboat tour ferries up to 135 passengers along the shores of Lake Michigan, passing such famed sites as Navy Pier, the Museum Campus, Grant Park, and the Magnificent Mile, while captains dispense enlightening tidbits about the skyline's history and architecture. With speeds of up to 45 mph, the Seadog Extreme takes passengers on a thrill ride, on which two 1,400-horsepower engines move through slaloms and 180- to 360-degree turns. Alternatively, the river and lake architectural tour kicks off with a speedboat ride on the lakefront before passing through the locks and meandering through downtown and its opulent skyscrapers on the Chicago River. All tours depart from and return to Navy Pier. Click here to see a map of the tours' routes.

The Groupon Guide to: Britcoms

Everybody knows that British sitcoms, AKA britcoms, AKA sitishes, are better and more artistic than American sitcoms, AKA USATVcoms—especially these, the world’s best britcoms:

The Hemleys of Northumberland: Even though couthness is held above all in England, this working-class family is not couth—uncouth even! The father is gruff from working in a northern smog factory, and every week he somehow manages to ruin the mother’s dinner party with the posh vicar!

Oh, Really Now!: What do a grimy, working-class department-store manager, a posh vicarwife, and a boffin fresh out of Eton who needs a job have in common? They are also bank robbingtons (British for “robbers”). Tune in to Dave. (They really have a channel called this. Google it.)

The Frasiering Hour: Frasier Crane is a popular radio psychiatrist, dispensing his wit and wisdom to the masses. He lives in Seattle with his retired bobby father, Martin, and his housekeeper, Daphne Moon. With Frasier’s brother, Niles, Eddie the dog, outrageous situations, and plenty of humor in each episode, this a worthy successor to Beers Ahoy (the show on which Cheers is based).

What are some of the greatest britcoms? Find out in today’s Groupon Guide.
