| The segways were a blast and quite hilarious to ride. I really enjoyed how much of the city we were able to see, out in the open air, in such a short amount of time. The information provided by the tour guide left a little to be desired, but the sites and areas we saw were great and (especially without the speed regulator) the segways were a lot of fun! |

| This is a really great way to see Chicago. We went on the tour that takes you north along the lake and were lucky to have a small group of only four people. The Segway is surprisingly easy to manage and there's a compulsory 'training course' before you start. (I managed to fall off despite this, but only because I became over-confident). It combines the advantages of a walking tour - you can get up close and personal with all the things you've come to see, and a driving tour - you can cover quite large distances painlessly. Well, relatively painlessly - it's a bit hard on the back to stand for so long, though there's a break in the middle that helps if you need to stretch. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable and the whole experience a lot of fun. |

| My wife, son, and I really enjoyed our Segway tour. We toook the navy pier tour that went along the waterfront, Licoln park, and some incredible neighborhoods. Our guide, Andrew, was very helpful in gettting everyone on the tour (total of 8) comfortable with their Segway's and feeling safe. In addition, he added a lot of insight telling us about Chicago history and architecture. |

| I wasn't sure what to expect when I booked the tour but my 16 year old daughter and I both walked away pleasantly surprised. It did not take long at all for us to feel comfortable on the Segway. In addition to enjoying the novelty of buzzing around on the Segway, our tour guide, Alex, did a great job of keeping us entertained and safe on our journey. |

| From start to finish....the tour experience on a segway was absolutely a blast! Segway training from staff was informative and simple. Our tourguide Josiah was pleasant and highly informative on all areas of the tour. I was born and raised in Chicago, but did not have the history and knowledge of the areas we toured. Josiah's guide was outstanding and very detailed. Our group had a great time and highly recommend this experience to all. Would do other segway tours again! Job well done Josiah! |

| 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. |

| The Segway was easy and quick to learn. It practically wants to stand straight up by it self. With five minutes of practice you're ready to go. In another ten minutes you are pratically a pro. The machine is amazing.
The tour along the lake front from Navy Pier to North Beach and on into Streeterville offered a beautiful view of Lake Michigan, the city, Lincoln Park, and the neighborhood of the North side.
Our guide was able to supply use with historical information about various parks, statues, buildings of Chicago, homes such as the McCormic mansion, and the city.
My wife and I really enjoyed the tour and would do it again. |
