| A little daunting at first but very intuitive to use. A bit pricey. |

| Learning how to use the Segway was as much fun as going around Chicago on it. Tour guide was helpful and knowledgeable about various attractions along the tour. |

| I've always wanted to ride a Segway, and really enjoyed the tour. The staff and tour guide were very nice, and the training session made me feel comfortable on the machine. Give it a try!
The tour guide asked whether we were interested in the information portion of the tour (about local landmarks and parks). We mostly just wanted to ride around so she ran through that stuff quickly. Don't pass this up if you live in Chicago! |

| The Segway tour was lots of fun. The experience was unique. They are easy to learn to drive. We covered lots of ground you couldn't do walking. The best part though was the guide HANNA she was fun, informative and a genuine pleasure to be arround. |

| Our friends from Ohio came up for a Chicago experience. They like a little adventure and this had it all. Sara taught us well so it was easy to use the Segways. We cruised all over and definately got our money's worth. Many other tourists on feet(poor things) asked us about the tour as we sailed by. Great overview of Museum Campus, Buckingham Fountain, and other sites. You will have to be pried off the Segway. It was not that physically demanding on the legs. Go--run and get tickets. |

| The instructions said to be at the site 1/2 hour before the tour started, and we were. We had hoped that the training would start then and leave the full 2 hours to ride.
We had a delightful time on our tour.
Our tour leader, Sara, was thorough in her explanation of the equipment and safety procedures. She was very patient with everyone in the group.
We would most definitely do it again! |

| I had injured myself because of being given a huge Segway when I specifically asked for the smaller, more controllable segway but there were none left in the store to use. I really think the store representative should had used the big one and allowed the paying customer, like myself, use the one of my choice. The company leader did this so sneakedly----left me for last in the group (since I was the young guy--and said here is your SEGWAY--the "big boy". What could I say when no other one was available and everyone else had their vehicle and were ready to go? Terrible experience!
Never asked me is OK...just gave it to me!
I also expressed my concern about the competitor company giving one extra hour of riding compared to this one, but they would not listen. I wish I would had gone to the other company who was able to travel the Millenium Park. etc.
My next trip I will not come home with sores on my knees and elbows-----because I will be given the correct size Segway--the one I had specifically asked for paying $70. This company was not prepared for large crowds at all. They must remember the CUSTOMER.
One more issue---the brochure said come in one half hour earlier for training---that was not part of the two hours. I have no idea why 45 minutes of the two hours was taken up with training....not according to advertisement.

| Training is simple and to the point. Segway is easy and very fun to ride, and it would take much longer and wear you out to try to cover that much territory walking. This is a "Must Do" experience! |
