| The entire experience was great. Learning the Segway was fun, riding was fun, and the tour was fun. Ask for Andrew as your instructor/guide - he taught us how to ride safely, gave an interesting city tour, and was an all around great ambassador for Chicago and for Segway. I will be doing this again with more friends and family. |

| I am a Chicago resident and took the tour with my best friend who lives in Philadelphia. The tour had the perfect balance of interesting info about the areas covered in the tour, and moving around on the Segways (which was really the main attraction!). Jeff, our tour guide, was so personable and patient with those in our group who took a little longer to get the hang of the Segway. He had a great sense of humor and good stories to tell. Two hours was just the right length of time for the tour--although since the weather was perfect on the day we went, no one wanted to get off the Segways!
One of the people in our group was in her late 60s and took a little longer to get a feel for how to move the Segway, but she did it and good for her! The minimum age for the tour is 12 and I think some 12-year-olds might not be good candidates unless they are mature (not daredevils), have good balance, and can understand the concept of shifting their weight to control the machine. I highly recommend this tour! |

| My husband and I purchased the segway experience for my brother and his wife for a Christmas present.
What a wonderful time we all had!! Laura was just great and made our experience even more enjoyable.
If I had one thing I would recommend - it would be more practice time upfront, so you feel more sure of your self driving the segway.
Other wise a totally enjoyable experience! |

Great fun, a super way to see Chicago highlights!

| Our guide was excellent and knowledgeable about Segway and about Chicago sights. I was nervous about learning to use the Segway but it turned out to be very easy and a very fun experience. It's great way see a lot without long, long walks or taking the buses, etc.
Worth it! |

| Even though we are life long Chicagoan's we enjoyed the tour and would do it again. You get to see so much more in the time alloted then you would otherwise. Our guide was knowledgable and easy to talk to. We told him early on we were from Chicago and he was able to tell us things we did not know about our city. |

| I have done this Segway Tour several times - both with family and business associates and clients. All love it and have subsequently either returned on their own or have made plans to return on their own - taking either their families, friends, associates, etc.
It's a lot of fun. Having done both the summer and winter tours, for first timers I would definitely recommend the summer tours.
I love the experience and will do it again. |

| We really enjoyed our Segway tour of the parks in Chicago. Even though we are from Chicago, our tour guide did a great job keeping the tour fun and interesting. He was very good at giving tips and pointers regarding the Segway riding itself. We had a blast. Daniel was really friendly and flexible with the tour stops and had a lot of useful and fun information. Plus, we took the tour on a cold and windy January afternoon and still had a blast! |
