| Our guide was a young man named Ed and he did an awesome job of explaining all the safety instructions and details on operating the segway. He was educated on the the downtown sites and did a great job. The only suggestion I have is, when it comes time to take the 10 minute break, why not take the break in an area where there is shade? We happen to have a hot. humid day and the break was by the shedd aquarium right in the hot sun. Of course the downtown view was spectacular but it was hot... |

| My comments would be that the experience was fun but there were some issues with the experience. The place did not have our reservation (did it on line with your service) and so there were too many people in the group. They had to take us but they didn't have enough charged Segways. So we found units and the minute we left, mine was beeping and had to be replaced. That took 10 ninutes and then another persons took 10 minutes so the Segways weren't the most reliable. The tour was nice but the guide was not very informative about the site. We ended up using up time along Lake Michigan in this open area and just drove back and forth. I would have preferred seeing more and hearing about the places.
So it was fun but I think the other guy (guide) may have done a much better job and woudl want more reliable Segways.

| The Segway was as easy to handle as they say it is. The tour guide was more than helpful in making us feel comfortable on the machines before we took off. We had varying levels in out group of 9 and all were "experts" by the end. He was knowledgeable about the sites we saw. He was personable. THANK YOU!!!! |

| The Segways were easy to learn--very good instruction was provided. It was a beautiful clear evening in Chicago, so riding through Grant Park, past Buckingham Fountain, along the lake and around the museums was delightful. Our leader was very nice and gave us some good Chicago information, but the "tour" was really secondary to our riding the Segways. The 2 hours was more about riding, enjoying the scenery and enjoying each other. By the time the tour was nearing its end, no-one wanted to give up their Segway. They become almost a part of you--they are quite intuitive. Anyhow, it was a fun thing to do with my 20 year old son. We only wished we could have gone faster! |

| It was a fun way to spend time with my children, high school and college age. Although we knew the locations being narrated, it was a different approach to view downtown. We were told they offer the tours year round; we would love to try a winter tour. |

| We loved the tour. Our tour guide was clear, concise and fun to be with. I highly recommend this tour for families and individuals that like to try something a little different. It was a blast! |
