| The MySegway Tour was a fun way to spend the day with an adult child and husband. Tour guides were great and shared interesting archictectural facts of many Chicago landmarks. I thought the Segway was going to be a little intimidating, but it was very easy to learn to ride. How I wish we could just have one to go up and down the lake front at our own leisure! |

| Though the day was overcast the experience was well worth it! Our guide was well read on Chicago history and landmark's. He also made us feel comfortable with the Segway before venturing out along the many beautiful pathways along Grant Park. This was especially helpful, as we only had to walk a short 1/2 block and then was able to spend the next 1 1/2 hours in a park setting away from traffic and pedestrians. The tour was about 1 hr. 40 mins. rather than 2hrs. but was still enjoyable. I strongly recommend this tour to those wanting a unique experience unlike anything they have done before! |

| The tour was terrific and riding the Segway was awesome. Katie did an excellent job of leading us around and filling us in with local history and lore. |

| I didn't know what to expect with this unusual transportation vehicle, but wanted to try it at least once in my life. I wasn't sure I could get the hang of riding it. But, after 10 minutes of trying it, I was hooked on the thrill of the ride. The guide, Matt, was very informative and attentive to questions and made the whole lesson very easy. I only regret we couldn't have gone further and explored more parks and trails. The afternoon was perfect temperature, in the low seventies, and the ride felt comfortable with our light jackets and helmets. We rode at a speed of about 6 to 10 miles per hour. I'll be back to try it again in the spring when everything is in bloom. |

| Both tour guides for the morning did not show up for work. Another person in the office had to take us out. The group was very large (16) vs usualy 8. 3 people had falls, no one got hurt, but the group leader did not know about 2 of the falls because she was too far ahead. |

| My husband and I took our two grandsons who are thirteen and twelve, and we all loved it. The Segways are easy to ride . . . .intuitive and very quick to master. Our guide, Matt, was terrific. . . . very informative and patient . We found the whole experience fun and one we will definitely repeat.. Our grandsons told us it was their favorite day of the summer. |

| Andrew was our guide. He was meticulous, engaging and very patient. He made sure everyone understood the basics of the vehicle. He watched out for our security while at the same time made sure that we enjoyed our new wheels. The tour and the experience was excellent and I woul highly recommend it to anyone. |

| We had six in our group that joined the tour. The Segway was easy to learn tp ride. We all had a great time. We saw sights that we would not have had time to see. The guide was very informative. We would say the Segway was one of the high lights of our trip. |

| My husband and I loved driving around Chicago on the Segways! They were so much fun, and we enjoyed learning about the different museums and buildings in the Chicago skyline. Our tour guide (Mike) was very knowledgeable, personable, professional, affable, articulate, and accommodating. His narration of our tour was animated, enthusiastic, funny, and very interesting.
Mike did a great job of teaching us how to use the Segways and getting us into the comfort zone. Riding a Segway seems almost magical because they are so silent and responsive to the body. It seems impossible that these machines can zoom around as they do, propelled by barely discernible body shifts.
We had a beautiful sunny day in Chicago and enjoyed every minute of it. |

| Paul was our trainer and guide. He handled both responsibilities very well. Clear, concise explanation of how to use the Segway and very interesting and informative tellings of Chicago and it's landmarks. Very personable and made everyone feel at ease in our group. |
