| The tour was great. Our granddaughter insisted on riding the pink Machine. It was different from the rest and harder to operate. The tires were thinner and it took more weight leaning in either direction than she had. I rode it later and found a big difference. We had a great tour and our guide was a lot of fun and was caring.

| We took the 5:00PM tour on Venetian night. After a few minutes of simple instruction we were off on our tour from Buckingham Fountain thru Grant Park to the Shedd Aquarium. I was concerned at first because of the crowds gathering for the festival but the segways are easy to steer and control and a wonderful way to sightsee and save your feet. Mike, our guide, was very informative and funny. He kept a close eye on the group and made sure we stayed together. You do not need to possess any special skill or athletic ability to comfortably manuver these vehicles. We will definitely return and will ask for Mike as our guide. Thanks for a unique experience. |

| Wow. Riding a Segway is a thrill. I can't believe they haven't caught on more than they have. I may have to be the first Segway owner in Flagstaff, Arizona.
Andrew, our coach, guide, docent, whatever you want to call him, was a trip. He was, first, conscientious, safety oriented and helpful; and second, he was fun, intelligent, Opinionated, and a hoot.
And of course, there is the city of Chicago. What a wonderful playground for things like Segway adventures.
When I return, I will definitely book another tour; the same one would be just fine for me.
I should mention that my experience booking the tour with Zerve was a pleasure. I would book any tour they were the agent for through them again. |

| The Segway Experience was even more fun than I thought it would be, and I had very high expectations. Everybody in the group "got it" very quickly, and there were no mishaps of even a minor nature. It was challenging enough to be great fun. We had the opportunity to try out a variety of terrain -- uphill, downhill, concrete, grass and loose pebbles, and once we were all old hands at it, our guide, Paul, let us try his much faster Segway. The tour covered some of Chicago's lovliest sights, too. |

| Very enjoyable, the group leader was very informative. One member of the group declined to go on tour. He was worried about issues of balance and falling off the segway. |

| Great service--both via Zerve and in the office the day of the visit. Our guide trained us well and was most patient with two "mature" folks. We took the tour at 10 AM on Thursday, 6/12 in downtown Chicago. We have already recommended it to several friends and plan to take visitors on the tour again sometime soon.
Thanks, C R M |

| My husband and I have been together for over 50 years and we enjoy doing things for the "first" time together. We find things we like and then do some again and this would be high on the list to do again.
We had a beautiful day to be in Chicago and our guide was very knowledgable.
We enjoyed his support and patience in instructing us and his kindness when we were a little slow. Our guide let us stay in our comfort zone. |
