| My husband and I came drove 40 miles into the city on a Wednesday morning to participate in the Segway Experience. We enjoyed the tour and the guide's knowledge of little tidbits of the city we didn't know before. A great experience - I recommend it. The Segway was easy to learn to operate and before you knew it we were zipping around like pros. |

| This was so much fun. It's way easier than we expected. Our guide, Omar, was very patient with everyone. At $75 for one and a half hours (+30 minutes of training), it's kind of expensive, but save up for it, because it is worth it. |

| Taking the Segway tour was a blast. My 23 year old daughter and I went and although she was a bit apprehensive, it didn't take long until she was right in the front with our guide. I had done it before in another city, but the tour in Chicago was great! |

| We were trained to ride a Segway at Disneyland. Therefore, we were experianced.
I felt the first time rider in our group needed more on board training.
The 1st generation equipment felt antiquated.
Our tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. |

A unique experience! |

| We booked a tour on the morning of the 4th of July thinking the Segway tour would be a good way to get an overview of the city. It was but much more. It ended up being one of the highlights of our 5 day trip to Chicago. Beautiful city with very informative dialogue from the tour guide. We highly recommend the Segway Experience Segway tour. |

| My wife and me and our son and daughter-in-law signed up to take the tour together, even though I felt it was a little expensive and was worried that my wife might find it difficult. I was wrong on both counts! We had a great time and with our guide's help everyone quickly learned how to ride. My recommendation is "just do it!' |

| Segaway is an experience on its own. It is hard to compare it to a scooter or alike. It is a chariot with 5 invisible gyroscopic horses but better because after an hour of driving it feels like it is a part of your own body... Surprisingly, the tour was very interesting and informative. Our tour guide Andrew was very knowledgeable and attentive.
A lot of fun for your money. I'll do it again. |

| I thought the Segway tour was great. I enjoyed learning to ride and found it easy. The instructor was patient and helpful. The tour itself did not provide as much information as I would have liked. A scheduled break for a beverage or rest rooms would have been nice. Overall, it was a fun way to spend a few hours on the lakefront of Chicago. |

Really fun!
Great for those either from the Chicago area or for out-of-towners.
Our guide (Laura) was very knowledgable, fun and friendly, and patient as I was learning how to operate the Segway-- plus she sure knows how to handle her machine like second nature. Our guide also was very good at leading a group of newbies around-- even with the extra number of "tourists" because of the Taste of Chicago going on. |
