| My wife and I had a fantastic time on this trip, and have been recommending it to everyone we know. The half-hour training session was invaluable in getting us comfortable on the Segways - Ed was a very enthusiastic and energetic tour guide. The tour itself was very scenic - we had never been down Astor Street, so it was neat to see a very historic part of Chicago. Even having grown up in the Chicago area, it was a great way to sightsee the beautiful lakefront. All in all, it was a very unique experience and well worth the money. |

| I was thrilled to be able to ride on a segway. We do not have tours with them where I live so I was glad to have that option when I visited Chicago. The experience was so great I almost didn't care if we just stayed in the immediate area. . . so the added benefit of going on a tour of the city just made it even better! |

| We two couples live in the Quad Cities and have been to Chicago numerous times. We have taken our bikes on the bike trails throughout Chicago, and have come up to enjoy all that Chicago has to offer, but the Segway tour was the highlight and definately one that we will and already have recommended to our friends. Our guide OMAR was fun and informative and truly seemed to enjoy what he was doing. We all felt well educated on the do's and don'ts by the time we stepped onto the Segways. His talking tour of the North Side of Chicago was very informative, and after he had evaluated our skills on the Segways, he gave us some freedom to enjoy them without having to stay in a line like school children.
We had one older lady in our group who was a bit slower than the rest of us in getting the hang of the Segway's operation, and he watched her carefully, without acting like she was a burden to the group. He was an exceptional young man who made our whole Segway experience fun and exciting. We will definately do this again with more friends in the future. |

| While I have lived in Chicago for over 35 years, you can never get tired of finding new ways to explore the city. My husband and I took our 16 y/o son on the segway tour and he hasn't stopped talking about it since. It's hard at this age to keep a teenage boy excited about doing things with their parents however he keeps asking when are we going to do it again. We took the tour begining from Navy Pier so we have 2 more tours to try. It was great and very easy! (I have limited use of my left hand and had no trouble riding it.) |

| Highly recommend the segway tour.
The segways are great fun, easy to ride, easy to learn (less than 2 minutes)
and the guides are great fun too.
the only problem is that when you hop off a segway and start walking away you just want to lean forward to go .,... which doesnt work all that well without a segway !!! |
|
Great fun if you have good balance.

| Going along the lake and through Lincoln Park free of traffic on a Segway is a great way to see the city amenities and have fun doing it. A few in our group had questionable balance due to age/weight and probably should not have been on a Segway at all. But for those that have good balance and want to have a fun time; this is just the ticket! |
