| The weather was terrible, but we had a great time. Our guides were personable and knowledgeable and clearly enjoyed their jobs. $75 sounded steep at first, but if you've never ridden a Segway before, this tour is worth twice that much. Highly, highly recommended! Great "walking tour" for an older person. |

| On the morning of my daughter's wedding, I scheduled a Segway tour for eight:
all out-of-town guests for the wedding.
We needed to change our Segway tour time and Amanda, the office manager, was extremely helpful in following through on our request. She made it possible for us to start the tour early so we could attend the groomsmen's lunch.
There had been some concern (from the wives) that someone might have an accident or be injured on the day of the wedding. I had inquired about the accident rate and been told that it was not an issue.
And it clearly wasn't. The group, ranging in age from 24 to 64, took about a minute to get the hang of it. It was great! Very intuitive and very easy to handle. Within moments, we were all rocking back and forth in place (great fun and a nice way to "feel" your relationship with the Segway) and then heading out and chatting easily as we toured the lakefront.
Our guides were great, too: both very personable and just fun to be with. Jeff's commentary was always interesting and insightful. Mike was helpful, too, offering to take pictures and, in general, looking after our group.
We covered Buckingham Fountain, the Museum Campus, Soldier Field, Millenium Park, the Bean and the Chicago Faces Fountain. The tour was over much too quickly. We could have gone another couple hours easily. But we had a full days' events to get to!
Everyone agreed that the Segway tour was one of the highlights of the weekend and we all said that we would look forward to taking Segway Tours in other cities.
But I'm definitely heading for the Chicago Segway Tour the next time I've got out-of-town guests in. The fun factor is off the charts! |

| Thank you so much for the great experience that I had on this tour. I would highly recommend it to anyone who would love to see the city in a short amount of time. The park riding was great and the views of the skylines were wonderful. I had such a great time. Our tour guide was also a pleasure to be around. |

| We had excellent guides and they were very patient as they taught us to ride. One of my friends was very nervious about the activity and our guide was very reassuring and she got over her fear quickly and really enjoyed the tour. It's a great way to see the parks and attractions and it gives you a great feeling of adventure and fun in the process. |

| We had a group of 2, so Pierce and Mike were our personal guides to Chicago. Pierce was personable, fun and passionate about Chicago. He knew what he knew and didnt make up what he didnt. I loved the tour and would certainly recommend it to anyone! Thanks a million. |

| We absolutely recommend the segway tour provided by MySegway Tour in Chicago. It is one of those experiences we will never forget. It was fun, invigorating, a great way to see many sights in a relatively short period of time. The tour guides were the best! They were very knowledgeable about both the operation of the segway and the different sites on the tour. They not only stopped at what would be considered major stops (museums, etc) but also at more incidential spots that as a tourist you would not otherwise know about and that provided more interest of a more personal nature to the tour. The guides cared very much about what we wanted to see and hear -- this was not a canned presentation -- there was a lot of interaction and interest in making sure we were having a great time.
We would definitely go on the tours conducted by My Segway Tour again...and again. |

| Great experience for me and for my daughter, age 13. We will do it every time we are in Chicago if time permits. So interactive, staff was wonderful and really patient. Information we received along the way about the landmarks from the guides was even better than what we got on the double decker bus! Even better than "Wicked", which was amazing too! |
