Picnic Spots for Family Weekends in Chicago with Ford Transit 12 Passenger Van Rentals
- Rental Vehicles
A family picnic is one of the best ways to enjoy a Chicago weekend, and a Ford Transit makes it easy to bring the whole family, the coolers, and the gear in one trip. Here are the city’s best picnic spots and how to plan a great day.
Iconic and central, Millennium Park pairs green space with “The Bean” and great people-watching — a fun, lively spot for a family afternoon.
Sprawling and family-friendly, Lincoln Park has room to roam, the free zoo nearby, and plenty of shady spots to spread a blanket.
Chicago’s “front yard” offers wide open lawns, Buckingham Fountain, and skyline views — a classic picnic setting right downtown.
With its imaginative play areas, Maggie Daley Park is a hit with kids and an easy pick when the little ones need room to run.
Pack a cooler, bring blankets and games, check the weather, and load it all into the van. A Ford Transit seats the whole family with room for the gear — and everyone arrives together, ready to relax.
For a family picnic day, the 15-passenger Ford Transit or the 12-passenger Ford Transit carries everyone and the gear affordably; step up to a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter for extra comfort. See the full fleet.
