And if it is true that you have not been to The Bean, then you should really make a date to do so. Bring along your wife or your husband, your kids, your friends, your co-workers, your neighbours – well, you know what we mean, so why not plan a day’s bus rental Chicago weekend trip and come visit this really unique and interesting place that many have been talking about.

Popularly or fondly known as “The Bean” by the people of Chicago, you will find that it is located right in the middle of the Millennium Park. If you have already made plans to rent a Chicago bus to check out The Bean, there should be no worries about locating it or finding a place to park your car. You will definitely not miss The Bean – it is a place where there is always a crowd and whenever there is a crowd, it can only mean one thing – it is a place not to be missed!

One other thing that you must never forget when you are visiting The Bean – make sure you bring your camera! This will be a wonderful opportunity and time where you can put your shutterbug skills to the test. There will be so much fun exploring the “funny” faces that you can make because of the concave reflective surfaces of The Bean. If you didn’t already know, Cloud Gate (the official name for The Bean) is the work of British artist, Anish Kapoor and this is his first ever public outdoor work installed in U.S. It is made of seamless series of highly polished stainless steel plates, reflecting the beautiful skyline of Chicago as you cruise past in the rented Chicago bus rental vehicle and the clouds in the sky – making it one of the biggest sculptures of its kind in the world – with a whopping size of sixty six feet in length and thirty three feet in height!

After a fun day of exploring The Bean with Bus Rental Chicago, you and your group may feel a little hungry, so hop back on to your rented bus and if you feel adventurous, then put your faith in your bus driver in bringing you for some good food nearby The Bean.
