Couple on a Date |
| My husband and I have been together for over 50 years and we enjoy doing things for the "first" time together. We find things we like and then do some again and this would be high on the list to do again.
We had a beautiful day to be in Chicago and our guide was very knowledgable.
We enjoyed his support and patience in instructing us and his kindness when we were a little slow. Our guide let us stay in our comfort zone. |

| 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! |

| My husband, our two sons, ages 15 and 13, and I all loved our Segway tour. Scheduling was easy, all staff members were professional and friendly, and our guide , Laura was entertaining and careful to make sure we all were safe and comfortable. We highly recommend this tour ! |

| We had a great time on these Segways! It's the best way to cover a lot of ground up close while riding an interesting gadget. The 2-hour tour of Chicago's Museum Campus and the surrounding areas was awesome!
If you don't get there 15 minutes early, it's not the end of the world - they will still train you on how to use the Segways. It's still advisable to arrive early though. Reserve in advance since timeslots go fairly quickly!
Mike was our guide and he did a great job - though the other people there seemed equally nice. |

| The Segway Experience is a great way to see a lot of Chicago in two hours. Our guide was helpful, friendly and eager to tailor the experience to the needs of the group. A good time was had by all. |

| I had heard of a few places that do this and these guys were the only authorized company so I went for it. My 19 yr daughter & I did the 2 hr tour on Monday (Memorial Day) and it was a perfect day wetaher wise. The young guy who led our tour was gracious and a great trainer and was very helpful an knowledgable. I will be back with others and use these guys again !!! This is a fun, safe way to see the city... a blast !! |

| We had a group of 8 family that had 6 first time Segway riders and this company was fanstastic about teaching us and making us comfortable with the Segway. I highly recommend them and do not be scared, nervous or worried, you are in good hands.
Our guide was Scott and he was absolutely the best! He was witty, knowledgeable and patient with us. He gave us some options on where we were going etc. and was quick to point out some interesting spots or information that even as locals we did not know.
This is the most friendliest group of employees I have every encountered and would recommend them as THE choice for Segway tours in Chicago! |

| It was a cold day, but it was a blast to ride a Sedway. the instructions were very good, and safety was emphasised. It was really easy to learn and become comfortable riding it.
The tour was interesting, saw somethings I had not seen in along time. I would reccomend this to tourists that visit Chicago, as well as people who live here. I will definatly do this again. I am even thinking or buying one. |

| There is no better way to take in Chicago's downtown lakefront and environs than the Segway tour. The tour covers much more ground than you could do walking and the view is much better than by car or bus. Plus, you go many places that cars and buses can't. Add to that the fact that riding the Segway is a blast, and you're bound to have fun.
On the downside, it's pretty expensive. And if you reserve ahead of time (tours are sometimes sold out early) you can't cancel because of weather--they go rain or shine, and I suspect tours can be pretty miserable in the rain. It can also be very chilly, so dress way warm! |
