| My son and I have had "Father/Son Fun Day" each summer downtown for the last 10 years. He is 13 now. This year we tried a Segway tour as part of our day. It was one of the most fun activities we have done in our ten years of outings.
Neither of us had ever ridden a Segway before and we were both a little uneasy about riding one, but our guides did a very good job of teaching my son how to safely operate it and make him comfortable and keeping an eye on him during our tour.
I wish the tour was longer. It was a lot of fun riding the Segway and we will definitely take another tour. Thanks, jk |

| It was a beautiful day. Tour guide was friendly, polite, and helpful. Tour guide gave very little "tourist" history. We were disappointed that there was only a few sentences of Chicago history told to us. We would have been more saisfied with a more experienced guide. |

A Lot of Fun

| We had a great experience. Our tour guide was excellent. The only thing I would change is that people should be grouped by age. There were two old ladies in our group and I feel they slowed and shortened our tour. |

Awesome

| 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.... |

| 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, 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! |
