| I took my teenage nieces to Chicago for a special 'secret journey'.. What a great time we had .Mike ,our guide , was great and helpful in learning the ropes with the segway. The route was beautiful , enjoyable and not too difficult. Will take the rest of the family on this adventure . Although it is a litte pricey, it is worth the money.... |

Terrific way to see Grant Park

| A fun tour. Easy to ride after only a few minutes of training. Tour guide Mike, a local college student, was funny and informative, stopping at the Buckingham Fountain for photos and near the Natural History Museum for a brief review of the city skyline and some local history. This was a nice overview of the area and worth taking the time to do. |

Great way to see lakefront/museums

| Combining the segway experience with riding through and experiencing some of Chicago's most beautiful and interesting real estate vowed both an adult who has seen it all and a daredevil teenager... |

It was FUN!

| Segways are so fun and easy to ride. Our guide, Paul, was the best! She was informative, patient, and great instructor. He made it a fun experience for the whole group. We got to see areas that we never would have seen if it weren't for segways. |

Great, fun experience!

| My 50 year-old husband, 12 year-old son and I went and had a terrific time. I almost didn't get a ticket for me because I was afraid I wouldn't get the hang of it (not too coordinated, you know), but I had no problem. The guides were very patient and friendly and made sure everyone was comfortable before we began. It was a great way to see Grant Park, the museum campus, and the lakefront. Have been to Chicago many times and saw things I had never seen before from a different viewpoint. My son really loved it, just wished he could go faster:) Great activity for all ages! |

| I was a little nervous while watching the video. The actual hands on and positive attitude of Mike, the guide, were a lot more helpful.
When I realized the amount of land we covered...it was a great tour. A few more up close, not just in the distance view, might have been nice. Also, a bit more diversity in the items/buildings/sites of note,e.g., a monument to DuSable, other specifically ethnic site of interest, etc....
Overall, I enjoyed the total experience. The price was almost acceptable.. |

Easier & more FUN than anticipated.

| We took the 5:00PM tour on Venetian night. After a few minutes of simple instruction we were off on our tour from Buckingham Fountain thru Grant Park to the Shedd Aquarium. I was concerned at first because of the crowds gathering for the festival but the segways are easy to steer and control and a wonderful way to sightsee and save your feet. Mike, our guide, was very informative and funny. He kept a close eye on the group and made sure we stayed together. You do not need to possess any special skill or athletic ability to comfortably manuver these vehicles. We will definitely return and will ask for Mike as our guide. Thanks for a unique experience. |
