| This was my wife's and my first time on a Segway. We were very comfortable on the ride within minutes of getting on. It is a great way to see the city. The tour guide was familiar with the area and provided enough detail to be able to appreciate what we were seeing. I will look for Segway tours of anywhere we go in the future. |

| I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to stay on the Segway, but it was very easy and I had a wonderful time. Dave the tour guide was the best. We had a ball and really enjoyed the day. I wish it could of been a 1/2 day tour instead of just 2 hours. I'm going to look for one to rent by my home. |

| The only reason to take this tour is to have fun on a segway for about 2 hours. |

| i expected to be able to take off on the segway from the get go, but the balance, stopping, turning took me about 30-45 minutes to feel comfortable. for a two hour tour that is a substantial amount of time, but nonetheless, the tour was fun and challenging. i would recommend of most anyone that is curious. we enjoyed a fairly uncrowded time of day at the parks, so that was a definite plus. i would not recommend trying to navigate through a crowd in grant park, for example.
our tour guide was great at patiently explaining the techniques and focusing on safety. he did an excellent job! |

| This is a great way to see Chicago! I took seven cousins there on a Friday before a Saturday wedding and we all had a blast! The hosts were great. They were very friendly, laid back, and pretty much let our group do what we wanted. There were plenty of opportunities to go "off the beaten path" a litle and enjoy the segways. My only suggestion is to have the hosts talk in more detail about city sights and trivia. When compared to what you learn on the riverboat tour, you get less information on the Segway tour. If they firmed up their knowledge just a little, it would be perfect. |

| Very enjoyable, the group leader was very informative. One member of the group declined to go on tour. He was worried about issues of balance and falling off the segway. |

Great Day on the Segway and with our Chicago guide

| Great service--both via Zerve and in the office the day of the visit. Our guide trained us well and was most patient with two "mature" folks. We took the tour at 10 AM on Thursday, 6/12 in downtown Chicago. We have already recommended it to several friends and plan to take visitors on the tour again sometime soon.
Thanks, C R M |

| I had a great time on my tour. The tour guide was very helpful and patient with my mom and helped her feel more comfortable on the Segway. I would recommend this to locals and tourists! |

| 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. |
