| I really enjoyed the segway tour of Chicago's museum campus. The segway was easy to operate and allowed the tour to progress at a reasonable speed in both crowds and in open areas.
It rained for a bit during our tour and we were not slowed down at all.
best thing: you sight-see without fatigue. It requires no more than moving your wrist, shifting your weight and standing in place. How easy is that?

| Other segway tours in town go for 3 hours, for the same price, aside from that, it was perfect. |

Riding the Segway is great fun

| We had a great time riding the Segways for two hours. Yes there is a Chicago tour involved and yes one gets to see a lot of city scenery, but the real focus is to learn how to ride the Segway unit and to enjoy it for a couple of hours. Our tour guide (Dan, I believe) was very pleasant and gave us very good instructions on the use of the units. I would recommend this to anyone interested in doing something fun and different. |

Don't miss this amazing experience.

| Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly and patient. Learning was really easy … just like they say. The Segways are incredible machines that do all of the work. Truly anyone can do it. And the two hour tour down to the Planetarium and back was the perfect length of time. I’ll be back |
|
Very enjoyable experience and highly recommend.

| My husband and I both felt this was one of the highlights of our recent trip to Chicago. It was a beautiful day and our guide was extremely helpful and thorough on giving us tips and putting us at ease with the machine. In a matter of minutes we felt comfortable with controlling it and had no problems whatsoever. One negative comment on the office staff. We arrived early and they suggested we might want to get water before the trip and pointed outside to a nearby shop, which we took advantage of and paid about $2 a bottle for the water. Just before the tour started, however, the office staff sold bottles of water for $1 a piece to folks who arrived on the late side. Our take on that was we should have gotten there just before the tour to get the deal on the water. Otherwise, everything was first class and we loved the experience.

| This was something very cool and fun. I am from Chicago and have taken the boat tours before. This was much better. A 2 hour tour was just the right amount of time.
Omar was a fun guide. He knew the Segway and was very good at teaching us how to use it and what to watch for. He also taught me a few things about Chicago that I didn't know.

| We had a very nice time at our Segway tour. I'm not much of a group activity person but it was a pleasant and low key way to learn the Segway and see the museum campus area. |

Outstanding!
