| My son loved the Segways. O.K. so did we. Maybe just a little more historical info would be nice. The guides were just great though and very nice and fun. |

| We have lived in the Chicago area for over 20 years and the segway tour ranks as one of our top 5 Chicago adventures!! It was a blast! We saw parts of Chicago that we didn't even know existed. The segways are easy to use! Our college son and his fraternity brother raved and raved about the experience! My husband and I now plan on taking all of our out-of-town guests on this tour. We are also planning on making this a "couples" event in the near future with some of our friends.
Definitely an experience not to miss!!
Our tour guide Derek was also awesome! He provided interesting facts about the city and the sites we segway'd past, but, left us alone also so that we could enjoy ourselves. Terrific guy!
Thanks again! |

| Great way to visit the city. Our guide Jonathan had a lot to say about Chicago. We strongly recommend this tour to people who want to learn about this wonderful city. Riding the Segway is a thrill too but easy though once you get the trick!! Thanks to the team there, you really helped us to enjoy this nice city. |

| My daughter and I will remember this experience for a long time. We were a bit at a loss of what to do with teens in Chicago - after schools in the US started again, many fun activities (Six Flags, for instance) are closed.
Segway was our way out. Thank you so much for offering this activity. |

Adam - Our guide was the best.

| Our family did the Segway tour as a group (children are teen-age) and we all enjoyed it tremendously. The tour was well-run, and the tour guide (Adam) was really good at providing tour-guide information, but balancing it with our desire to just ride for the fun of it..... He kept a good eye on the less confident riders, and provided lots of hints to help us adjust to the machines.
The actual mechanics of the Segway were pretty easy to master - we were given a couple of minutes of one-on-one instruction, followed by several minutes of practice in a protected area, and that's really all we needed to feel pretty comfortable with the riding. The tour through Grant park provides really cool views of the city, and allows you to travel a lot more of the lakefront than could be managed on a walk. We picked a bright, sunny day, and it was equally fun for all of us. |

| I've always wanted to ride a Segway. I hoped I might get 5 or 10 minutes on one, but when we got the chance for two hours, we couldn't wait to sign up and go.
There was a short orientation video that explained the device and its safety features (and safety measures). The Segway is full of technology that really makes it safe and easy to ride.
We went across the street to the park where our tour guide, Sarah (she was fabulous) explained how to get on and drive the Segway. Though it looked simple, she came to each one of us individually, started our units, made sure got on o.k., and then made helped as as we went forward, backward, and in reverse. We then had some free time to drive in the perfect area to get acclimated to the Segway. Within minutes we found the Segway so easy and intuitive to drive I could hardly believe it. It is nimble, agile, and so well balanced it is amazing. I think you'd have to be quite uncoordinated to not be able to maneuver this thing.
Anyway, we had a nice tour of a variety of attractions and our tour guide gave us some nice information about the area. I couldn't have enjoyed my time more! |
