Enjoyable experience on a segway

We started the tour with learning how to operate a segway in a park. At first it was a little strange moving around on it, but it didn't take very long to get used to it. Soon enough we were moving it without very much effort. It was really lots of fun once we got used to them. After we all had our little lesson on riding and stopping them, we started the tour portion. At times I found it a little difficult to hear the tour guide, but when I was near him I found him to be extremely knowledgeable about the area and the history of the area. Being from the Chicagoland area, I found there were a lot of little things that I either never knew or noticed. During the second half of the tour it began to rain, but luckily we were provided with some ponchos which helped greatly. Also I found that although we weren't walking around, you're still standing on your feet for the duration of the tour. So I would recommend wearing shoes that are comfortable. I was in flip flops and my feet were really sore after the tour. Overall though, it was lots of fun and a great experience just to be on the segway alone.

This felt like a perfect area to use a Segway. It was easier to ride than I thought, very intuitive with the right encouragement. I found the staff to be pleasant , professional and relaxed. I was surprised how fast we could travel great distances that on foot would have been a struggle. It was fun to feel the wind on your face and to have freedom to ride with only one hand or even no hands sometimes. I was glad to have a strudy pouch to carry valuables and rain gear...I worried about having to leave stuff behind. The architectural part was interesting and just he perfect mix of fast touring and stopping for information and phots ops. I found both tour guides very knowledgeable with an understated charisma which quickly gave us a sense of warm friendship. This excursion exceeded our high expectations. Such a good value for the money. I would take it again and I hope to bring the whole family next time.

Segways are remarkable machines and easy to ride. We highly recommend the Architecture Foundation trip as adding an additional element to the enjoyment of riding the Segways.

This was so much fun! Honestly, I would have paid this money just to ride a Segway. The architecture tour was an added bonus! Really interesting, and nice tour operators. Definitely do this when you're in Chicago!
