| The tour was quite entertaining. It's just a new experience that every person should have. Even if you life in the city, you should try it out. The biggest thing that should be said at the beginning is DON'T LOOK AROUND while controlling the segway. Ha. Thanks for the trip. |

| I would recommend this activity to anyone visiting or living in Chicago. I actually got sick right as my tour was supposed to start, and Mike (one of the guides) was so helpful in rescheduling the tour for the next day. The segways are easy to ride and are so much fun. It was a great way to see Chicago within just 2 hours. |

The Segway is amassing! It is very intuitive piece of equipment, very user-friendly and absolutely not threatening in any way. The engineering is ingenious and fascinating! You feel that you operate it with your though rather than button or handle…
I enjoyed the tours with this company twice.
First trip was in Millennium Park-Museum campus-Soldier Fields, second – off Navy Pier to Lincoln Park Zoo and back through the Gold Coast.
It takes 5 minutes to learn how to ride. The guys in the company are very good and very helpful - both times we had exceptionally friendly, funny and knowledgeable guides.
The trips are enjoyable on two levels – you cover lots of ground and see lots of beautiful landmarks and you are not tired at the end. The rides are very pleasant and safe, fun for all ages. Will not recommend for people whose weight is around 100 lb – it makes it difficult to get up to speed with the rest of the group. If this is the case I think a backpack with a couple of water bottles in it or any other way of extra weight on the body should help. It was great to take my out-of-town friends on a tour! It was different and flavorful.
I regret not having money on me for the tip on my first trip! The guys more than deserve it!
Booking was a brieze too!
Money well spent! |

| I had a great time, I was a little aprehensive at first because I don't have the best balance, but after a few moments on the segway I was ready to go. It's very easy to learn and master. I would highly recomend this activity to anyone. I saw several things and learned facts about many things I didn't know about in the city.
This was absolutely awesome!! |

| Was disappointed that the information given when I booked this tour said we should arrive 30 minutes earlier than scheduled activity was to start for training video and equipment fitting. We arrived at said time and no one was there. About 5 minutes later a guy arrived, didn't introduce himself only said it'd take a while for him to get set up and to have a seat. He was right as it was almost an hour before we got started. Then there was no "training video" only the guide telling us the "dos and don'ts." There is not much input from the guide during this tour but a lot of time getting to ride the segway. We have taken a segway tour from another company before and the guide gave much more information about Chicago, its history, and the sights. I guess it depends on what you want from the tour. |

| The evening tour was fantastic. Our tour leader was knowledgeable and engaging. My kids, (ages 12 and 14), thought it was the best part of our Chicago vacation. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun way to see some sights of Chicago in a unique way. |
