Excellent and informative guided tour
Robie House is one of the signature houses built by Frank Lloyd Wright. It is on the UNESCO world heritage list. Guided tours of the interior and extorior for USD 20 pp - guides are excellent and know a lot about the house and its former inhabitants, bringing the house to live. Really nice experience. It is located in Hyde Park, next to the Univ of Chicago - very easy to combine. Recommended trip.

Robie House Tour
My wife and I went on the Robie house tour for the first time and found it super interesting. Wright's design are quite beautiful and unique and this tour is a great way to experience his talents and family life. Great tour for out of towners and life long Chicagoans.
