Prices can vary so I'd make sure to ask for discounts, some places have discounts on certain days, for example the Shedd Aquarium has some days for discounts but they tend to change them around. This is possibly why you might have trouble finding details about cost too, it can change from time to time. What order to see the site you mentioned? The Brookfield Zoo is outside the city a ways so I'd recommend seeing Navy Pier, Willis Tower, Shedd Aquarium, then Brook field Zoo or reverse the order and start with the Brookfield Zoo, other wise you might not be able to get to everything. Getting downtown by Public Transportation If you're in Paletine, go to the nearest train station and they have lines that take you right into Union Station they'll have maps on the walls most of the time, you can find your location and the times of the trains, from there you can make your way around the city pretty easily. See the links below for more details.
