The Magnificent Mile — eight blocks of North Michigan Avenue from the Chicago River to Oak Street — is one of America's premier shopping districts. Royal Carriage Limo runs Mag Mile shopping days for suburban families, North Shore residents, hotel guests staying off-Mile, and out-of-town visitors who want to shop without parking-garage math.

Best Days to Shop the Mag Mile
