| 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... |

Excellent time, even in the rain.

| I loved the trip, as well did my wife. Our friends on the other hand had some dexterity issues. She slipped on the mud and fell, and after that was only wishing the entire thing was over with. I will definitely recommend this to anyone that isn't afraid of a little adventure. The instructors were very nice and attentive to everyone's needs. I wish I lived in Chicago so I could go do this more often. I want the 12mph key!!! They should offer one ride a week for 'advanced' users that have ridden them before to be able to run the higher mph's. Even though it was raining the entire time we were out there, we had the most fun I had the whole weekend during those 2 hours on the segways. |

| The five of us that did the Segway tour on Saturday had the time of our lives! We loved every second and even the rain didn't diminish the fun. We look forward to more friends coming so we can do it again. |

| We had a great time on the Segway tour. In fact, it was the second year in a row that we took the tour. The tour stops at all of the highlights, parks and the museums. The tour operators are great and often stop to take photos and give a bit of history about a particular venue. I would recommend this to anyone! |

| The guide had good knowledge of the city. Everyone was comfortable with the machines before we left for the tour. By the end of the tour we could all manuver the machines as if we were walking. The views and locations we saw were great!
I would recommend this to anyone. |

| The guides were very knowledgeable, patient, and clear with their instructions on how to operate the Segways. They stressed safely as the number one goal, and to have fun as well. They were able to deal with all the ability levels in our group.
I wasn't quite sure if the 2 hours included the instructions as well. When I read the website description it stated in one area that the 2 hours included instructions. But then another sentence in bold print said to come 30 minutes early for processing and instructions.
If instructions were not to be part of the 2 hours, then our tour time ended 20 minutes too soon. This might need to be clarified.
Otherwise, all went well. I will certainly recommend this to my family and friends. |

| I went on this tour with my husband and a close friend who was visiting Chicago. It was an awesome way to see downtown and the Segway was AWESOME. Tour guide Rob was super fun and made sure we were all comfortable on our Segways before hitting the road. We had a great time and I can't wait to get back on a Segway. |

| I recommend that everyone, including locals, experience a Segway tour. It's worth it alone to be able to use this technology. It's truely amazing that this equipment works so intuitively. I was a little nervous at first, but quickly caught on.
Even though I've lived here for five years, touring on the Segway allowed me to see parts of the city that I was always too tired to walk to. It's great for all ages. |
