| Though it was a bit on the pricey side for us, we are happy that we decided to take this tour. The directions to get there were easy to follow, the people were friendly and the tour and the guide were highly enjoyable. The training was thorough and we felt confident on the Segway, the guide was amusing and informative, and the tour was terrific. We definitely recommend this company for anyone wanting to cruise around the area in a fun and different way. Fantastic and completely satisfactory experience! |

| My husband and I really enjoyed the Segway tour! It was really fun learning to ride a Segway. We had about a half-hour of training to ride the Segway and then we went on the tour of Chicago. The best part of the tour was riding the Segway because I am somewhat familiar with Chicago's landmarks, but our tour guide had good information about the sights that we saw, and I learned some new things as well. The only down side to our tour experience was that there was one person in our group who was less comfortable than the rest of the group riding a Segway, and I think that slowed us down a bit. Based on that experience, it would be nice if they offered the option of a longer tour for people who are comfortable on Segways, or take to it quickly (an additional fee would be OK). |

| They say to get there a 30 minutes before your schedule time I don't know why because when we got there it took 3 minutes to fill the form out then they told us to come back 10 min. before are schedule time go figure, then the tour started late plus you only get about and Hour and 40 min. on the segway, but once we got started it was fun the segways are pretty slow at times it gets a little boring. The tour guy Ed did a good job.
Next time I would check out the other segway tour in Chicago they are longer and I hear that half way thru the tour they set your segway to go faster, both companies are the same $, make sure you book ahead of time we also enjoyed doing the later tour at 5:00pm. |

| I was impressed with the Zerve service quick response. I inadvertently entered the wrong email address and a rep. from Zerve called the same morning to clarify the email address for e-tickets. |

Great time had by all!

| It was awesome - very fun activity for teenagers with their parents. It's hard to find things that appeal to teenagers, esp. boys and this was a perfect thing to do with our 14 year old son. Easy to learn and fun to do! |

Great Fun!

| It's not easy dragging two 13 year-old boys away from video games and computers on the weekend in search of something entertaining and exciting: my son rolled his eyes when I suggested this tour and tried to worm out of going! But when I brought a friend of his along, suddenly it seemed "cool" and by the first 15 minutes, both of them were incredibly enthusiastic and would gladly do it again. Of course, I had secretly wanted to try it myself, and loved every moment... |

Really enjoyed it

| Our guide Sarah was lovely (part tourguide, part drill sgt., part sweetheart) and its been my stepson's dream to take the tour for awhile. It was great.
All the best,

| Riding the Segway around Chicago was an excellent way to see a lot of things in the city without killing your feet. Of course, using the Segway itself is half the fun of the tour. I highly recommend this activity! |
