We are spending a week in St. Joseph and would like to take the Amtrak to Chicago. I%26#39;m not sure where to find any good Amtrak discounts available for July? Also, what is the best way to get from Union Station to the Shedd Aquarium? Bus or cab? Thanks for any information!
Amtrak discounts from St. Joseph, MI to Chicago?
Look on Amtrak.com in the ';hot deals'; section, then click on ';weekly specials'; to see if any of the route(s) from St Joseph are featured.
You could walk the pretty reasonable distance to State St. and take the 146 bus to the Shedd.
Amtrak discounts from St. Joseph, MI to Chicago?
I believe Amtrak has a discount deal through AAA.
From Union Station to the Shedd - walk to the corner of Washington %26amp; Canal St. Catch a CTA #14 Jeffrey Express bus. Get off at the Museum Campus bus stop.
Thanks for the information!!
Amtrak offers a 15% discount to seniors (62 and older) and 10% to AAA members. Children (ages 2-15) receive 50% off the rail fare and students with a Student Advantage Card will receive an additional savings.
As far as getting from Union Station to the Shedd Aquarium, I recommend a taxi. It should be relatively inexpensive ($10-$12 at the most) and easier than a bus. If you are able to, you could always walk. There is a walking path along Lake Michigan that is really beautiful and it leads you directly to the Museum Campus. It is about a two mile walk.
