| We had a great guide, Lissa, who gave us enough one on one training to be confident once we set off. It only took a few minutes to get comfortable on the Segway, even in Chicago traffic. Lissa was very aware of her "ducklings" at intersections and other potentially hazardous situations.
The Segway is a GREAT way to tour Chicago and a lot of fun! Lissa was an excellent guide, well versed in the history and the "scoop" on the sites on our tour. She was always audible and easily heard - something some tour guides overlook.
We were very pleased with our tour and the Segway experience. I can safely say it was the high point of my 12 yr old's trip. We will definitely be booking another Segway tour on our next trip to Chicago. I highly recommend the tour group, and especially our guide, LIssa. |

| My son (45), grandson (14) and myself (73) took the Grant Park Glide Segway tour and enjoyed it tremendously. The segway is so much fun to ride, and it's so easy to operate. They are almost intuitive and seem to know what you want to do. It was pretty nifty going so close to sites that I usually see only from a car, such as Buckingham Fountain and the monuments along Solidarity Drive. Our guide, Brandon, was an excellent teacher and soon had everyone riding like experts. My grandson and I did the tour from Navy Pier last August, so we were experienced already and were ready for another segway trip. Brandon had a lot of interesting information about what we were seeing, and he picked good spots for photo ops. I'd like to bring my other sons on a segway tour sometime. I know they would all enjoy it. That was a totally perfect way to spend the last day of summer before school started. |

| Second time on the segway for my wife and I - first time for our boys and her mother, all of 82 years young. Fabulous time - thoroughly enjoyed it. Beautiful day, our guide June was terrific - friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. She paid particular attention to my mother in law, though I have to say after about 1/2 hour, she was very comfortable with the segway. All in all a great couple of hours, and this after our last experience which I didn't think we could match, but match it we did - maybe even bettered it (Northerly Island!). Can't wait to do it again. This is sure to become a routine introduction to our fair city for friends and family. |

| Before the kids headed back to school, we wanted to spend some time with them doing something fun. A couple days in Chicago was great and the Park Glide Segway Tour was the highlight. We had a beautiful day, and the scenery was awesome. I definately recommend it! |

| Segways are lots of fun - you look like a dork but eveyone asks how they can do it too. It was a little pricey, but worth doing at least once. |

| We had a terrific time. Once I found my "center" I was ready to roll, lol. Segwaying allowed our family and friends a great time to spend together, to see behind the scene sites of the city of Chicago, and experience another fun outing. Our tour guides Eric and June were very helpful and informative about the tour. They made sure we all felt comfortable before we went out on our excursion. I would recommend everyone try this new way of transportation, but please wear comfortable shoes with a great arch support. In a nutshell, I would definitely do this again. |

| I was apprehensive before I got on the Segway. Once I got on, it was a piece of cake. It only takes about 2 minutes to learn and then your a pro. The guides were very nice and very informative. I definitely would do this again in a different part of the city. A easy way to see the city quickly. You won't regret this tour!! |

| This was our first Segway experience. My 12 year old son took to it with ease. With a little prompting, I soon followed. Our guide was great, the tour lasted just the right amount of time, and I really liked exploring Northerly Island. Would do it again. |
