| At first, we were worried that we may have balance issues in learning how to ride the Segway, but we were pleasantly surprised how easy it was. Dave, our tour guide, was extremely patient and full of good humor. Even with our clumsy first attempts, he was understanding and actually made learning fun. I would enthusiastically recommend this experience to everyone, no matter the age. The park scenario was perfect. We were able to tour the whole park and feel the fresh air without getting tired. |

Something fun the family should try!

| We've been to Chicago many times but never saw the Lakefront in such a fun and unique way! The operator was very safety conscious, fun-spirited and made our whole group feel comfortable with the Segway prior to embarking on our tour. We had people in our group from 12 to 78 years old and everyone got the hang of it right away. It's so easy to do and definately a one-of-a-kind type experience! State-of-the-art equipment and, as the main supplier of Segways to the other tour operators, certainly the definative tour group to go with when deciding on a Segway tour. |

| I took the 5pm tour and it was the best thing I did in Chicago. The weather was nice with a cool breeze and the two hours just flew by. I loved the Segway Chicago experience so much that I plan to take the Los Angeles tour. |

Great tour and professional staff

| We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and found it very enjoyable. Our tour guide Jenny and Docent Joyce were very informative, professional and helpful. We were pleased with the pre trip set up and instruction. From the time we entered to check in to the end of our tour it was a very positive experience.
We felt the tour was a great balance of "ride time" and information and learned a lot about the fascinating history of Chicago. As we had our 13 and 16 year old children on the tour with us they found it a great experience. As a consequence we would definitely plan to do it again either in Chicago or another city where the tours are available. |

| I have been to Chicago numerous time before and even visited the same parks, but this Segway tour really lays out parks and museums like nothing else.
I signed up mostly to try out the famous Segway, but the tour turned out to be an excellent introduction to "things to see and places to visit". |

very knowledgable guide, could last longer.

| Other segway tours in town go for 3 hours, for the same price, aside from that, it was perfect. |

| When first hearing about the segway tour of chicago the first thing that came to my mind was" of course, this is going to cost probably hundreds of dollars a person. Being only 70 per rider for 2 hours including the lessons, it is very wallet friendly. We got to go and see some major things in chicago on one of the most technologically advanced machines in chicago. Just the feel of riding one is out of this world, at first you think that it might be unstable and hard to ride, but its easier to do then a bike! The machine balances itself and by merely putting a bit of wiehgt on you toe or heel it goes that way. I loved riding by and having big groups of people smiling and pointing you out because youre riding this thing, and i cant even count how many times i got pictures taken of me on one. The group stops for some "kodak" moments so you can get a picture with the friends and family. The employess were very generous and took their time making sure you were comfortable riding on a Segway, and would stay with you as youre getting the hang of it. If you want to have one of the most fun and memorable experiences in the windy city, i recommend trying out one of these segway tours of chicago! |

| This was a perfect way to start a Saturday night date and we both thoroughly enjoyed every second of it. Our guide and "host" was delightful and although we're native Chicagoans we saw views never before experienced.
The Segway was a blast. After about 4 minutes we felt it was part of us and we were part of it.
Bottom line, we'd do it again...even with the occassional rain...and we'd highly recommend it to anyone. Matter of act we already have! |
