| The activity was great fun as well as informative. The tour leader, Hannah, was a very knowledgeable young woman who handled the group, with diverse individuals, very well. I highly recommend this experience. |

| THis is my third time, and it's a blast!
Despite the skill of our leader, though, the training took too long (8 people). For a 10:00 tour, we did not leave the training area until 10:50. I realize that this is group dependent, but given the number of staff in the office, it would've been helpful for one of them to follow us over, and help with individualized training where needed.
Because of this, our leader offered to go over the time by 10 min or so, but we had a committment, so didn't get to go around the perimeter of Millenium Park.
Note, a second group that went out at the same time as us (4 people) finished their training at 10:25. |

| 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. |
