| What a blast. Riding a Segway was easier than I imagined. Buying the tickets online was a breeze. Everyone at Zerve and the Segway tour was helpful and friendly. I would definitely recomend this to anyone wanting to have a fun and "out of the ordinary" activity!!! |

| Josiah was an excellent tour guide, patient with younger kids and experienced. The address to your shop should have a plot plan along with the ACTUAL address. The address you give is confusing and could cause someone to miss their tour and lose their money. The tour was fun and I recomment it. |

| Four friends (of different coordination abilities) got together for a fun day of touring Chicago's Grant Park and museum campus. Our guide (Josiah) was patient and thorough in his training which made for a very fun and successful Segway experience. I would do this again and again. |

| Very different experience--but be prepared for cool conditions. It was about 60F when we went, but with the wind blowing off the lake some of our group was shivering.
With a Segway, you're really just standing on a platform racing down the street, so there's not much physical activity to keep you warm.
Dress for at least 10 degrees cooler than actual air temperature.
Our guide was very pleasant, knowledgeable about Chicago and of great assistance in teaching our group to ride..
An older woman with us (60's) never really got the hang of it (balance issues?) and walked back the last two blocks. |

| We very much enjoyed our tour with Mike . He was informative and very charming. The segways are fun after a short learning period. I was only a bit sore the next day. I highly recommend it especially if you want to please your teens.!! |

| My 18-yr-old nephew was in town for his first extended visit of Chicago. This tour was a perfect way to spend a few hours.
Great tour guide and tour route.
I highly recommend. |

| Had a great time. I was in town for the marathon and wanted to spend some time sight-seeing (but without much walking) so the Segway tour was a perfect choice. Training was quick and easy. By the end of the second hour everyone in the group was traveling with ease and confidence. No one wanted to stop at the end of the tour. Tour guide (Jeff) was friendly, helpful, and patient. Great fun! |

| The staff had a great manner working with first-time Segway riders--all the way from the sign in on out. The training period was very good but I could see it was tedious for one person who was on her third Segway tour...wish they had an "advanced" tour where you didn't need a half-hour instruction period. The tour was well-arranged with the various stops/points of interest being explained well. I thought, however, that we stopped too much and we didn't have adequate opportunity simply to ride the Segway without interruption. However, this was a GREAT experience to enjoy in Chicago and I have recommended it to family and friends. My wife and I would likely take another Segway tour in the context of introducing another couple to it but, if it were just the two of us, we would want a more advanced experience, as noted above. |
