| We had six in our group that joined the tour. The Segway was easy to learn tp ride. We all had a great time. We saw sights that we would not have had time to see. The guide was very informative. We would say the Segway was one of the high lights of our trip. |

| As a group of sisters, not far from greatgrandmotherhood,we wondered if we were getting in over our heads. The tour was an absolute delight. Riding the segways came with very little practice, and made us feel like kids again. The places we saw throughout Grant Park were very beautiful. Our tour guide was congenial, funny, and informative. We all have highly recommended this trip to friends. Thanks for the experience. |

| My husband and I loved driving around Chicago on the Segways! They were so much fun, and we enjoyed learning about the different museums and buildings in the Chicago skyline. Our tour guide (Mike) was very knowledgeable, personable, professional, affable, articulate, and accommodating. His narration of our tour was animated, enthusiastic, funny, and very interesting.
Mike did a great job of teaching us how to use the Segways and getting us into the comfort zone. Riding a Segway seems almost magical because they are so silent and responsive to the body. It seems impossible that these machines can zoom around as they do, propelled by barely discernible body shifts.
We had a beautiful sunny day in Chicago and enjoyed every minute of it. |

| Andrew was such a great guide. I've lived here for 5 1/2 years and still learned new things about my city. It was such a fun way to participate in a tour and not as easy as one may think. Andrew was very patient with our group, which happened to be a little larger than usual and involved some folks who didn't have the best control. My only wish is that we could have explored more areas. |

| The safety movie freaked me....but after we were on the segway for a bit, I felt more comfortable. Of course, there is nothing more beautiful than the Chicago lake front. Combine the view with the ride and you have a great memory of windy city! |

| Combining the segway experience with riding through and experiencing some of Chicago's most beautiful and interesting real estate vowed both an adult who has seen it all and a daredevil teenager... |

| I was taking a friend's son out for the afternoon and the Segway tour came up as an option. I was most excited about it as an idea but I wanted to give my 13 year old companion several choices. It was by far his top choice. . . I couldn't believe we agreed! I was so relieved that we were able to get reservations and do the tour the next day. I wondered if it would be worth the high price. I highly recommend it because it SO was! Riding the segway was surprisingly easy to learn and I think our whole group would probably agree as there were no stragglers or accidents. Our tour guide was nice, patient, & caring in addition to being passionate and knowledgeable about segways and Chicago. If you listened to him you got a fun, safe ride and some interesting trivia which I've already busted out on my friends a few times. My buddy gave the tour a rave review as well. |

| My daughter and I were in Chicago for the weekend celebrating her 25th birthday. I wanted it to be unique and memorable. When I found this tour, it sounded great....though both of us were a little nervous of what to expect and how difficult it might be to drive the segway. Mike was our tour guide. He made the whole experience fun, funny and hugely interesting. Not only was the Segway easy to master, but it was so much fun to ride. Both of us were ready to kick it up to the next level of speed. And it was a really great way to see the waterfront. Mike was a fanstastic guide. He really new the city, gave us lots of interesting facts and kept the tour moving at a really good pace. All in- it was a really good time and surpassed my expectations. |

| The Segway tour is quite fun. We took the Chicago Experience tour and it was through Grant Park and museum campus; it was more about the riding experience than the sights. Next time I would try the architecture tour. The Segway was great though, I want one! |
