| My husband and I took our "almost" 15 year old grandson on the Segway tour in Chicago. My grandson thinks the Segway is the neatest invention since electronic games. And us "old folks" enjoyed it too. Our guide was very knowledgeable and able to answer all questions that were thrown at him. Segway beats a walking tour or a bus tour any day of the week. |

| We had a fantastic experience. Mike was our guide and he was knowledgeable, pleasant, courteous and friendly. We went on March 30th so the weather was colder. Next time we will choose a warmer day. |

| What a great way to see Chicago's lakefront! After about 20 minutes' training, our tour guide led us through Grant Park, the Museum Campus, along the lakefront, and back up Michigan Avenue. There were about a dozen folks in our tour, ages 16 through 50-something, and we all had a good time. There's no pressure to go faster than you're comfortable with. The Segway is unbelievably easy to control, easy to learn, and a lot of fun! |

| I had always wanted to try the Segway since I first saw it. This tour helped fulfill that wish. The guide not only helped us learn how to navigate the Segway, but he also gave us some of the history of Chicago. I found the tour to be a great new way to see Chicago. I would recommend (and have) this tour for those looking for a great fun way to experience the Windy City. |

| Jeff, our guide, was knowledgable and a lot of fun to be with. We had three people in our group including Jeff so we were able to ask many questions related to the Chicago Skyline and development of the City of Chicago. In two hours we saw more of Chicago than we could see in a whole day without the Segways. The tour was worth the price! His directions were explicit and easy to understand and follow. Riding the Segways was an experience we will repeat in other cities and look forward to returning to Chicago to "do" the other Segway tours that are available.
Only the next time, we will Segway first, then go back to the locations that appeal to us. |

Great Tour!

| My daughter who is from NYC and I who works locally in Chicago did this tour this August. Learning to handle the Segway was a breeze. Each one only needed about 5 minutes and we were off to do the Lakefront tour. We had already visited the tour spots earlier during the week but we were looking forward to the Segway experience while again looking at the same sites. It's a totally different feeling when you're on a Segway. You feel like you're on top of the world. People also can't help but look at you as you proudly move through the various sites.
The tour leader was very affable. He gave historical background on the various sites that we visited although I wish that he gave a lttle bit more of the unique tidbits for each of the sites instead of just the plain textbook info.
My only gripe is that the tour was pricier for the 2 hour tour as compared to 5$ less for the competitor for 3 hours. We also had the later model Segways with the handgrip navigation instead of the newer models where you tilt the handlebar sideways to turn left or right.
In any case, this is still worth the money for a first timer. |
