Our group was male and female, ages 29, 50, 58 and 61, all originally from Chicago area but 2 were visiting from Texas and Calif. We are all related or in-laws.
We found the experience to have been fun and certainly a stretch out of our comfort zone. As I was getting on the Segway, my thought was, "Why did I even think to do this?", but after about 5 minutes, I felt much more comfortable. It actually felt good to try something so new and different. All of us had a wonderful time and came away with amazing memories. Our guide, Brian, was patient and helpful. There was an older man in our group (maybe around 70+) and possibly he needed more "hovering" because it was difficult for him. |

The Folks at MySegwayTour were extremely helpful. I brought two C level clients into town for their first Chicago visit. My clients enjoyed the tour and had alot of fun.The guides were friendly, knowledgable and professional. I would recommend this tour to anyone from business professionals to families. I have already recommended this tour to a VP of sales for his team outing.
Thank You For Everything!

Tour was fine. 3 hour tour is actually a two hour tour with 1 hour of training. Architectual tour was three stops to look back at the city skyline. While the guide was informative, I'm not sure a Segway was any advantage to any other tour. Glad I did it but I doubt I'd want to do it again. |

The segways were fun and a great way to see the city, but the tour guide did not provide any true direction to the tour. Landmarks were only discussed if the group asked a question about something specific, which is quite challenging for someone who is not from Chicago and doesn't know anything about the city. Bike Chicago provided a much more efficient tour to truly learn about Chicago.
Segways were also the older models that did not have newer features such as leaning to turn rather than using the handle bar switch. |

Our tour guide was fun and knowledgeable. Unfortunately, several of the group members with whom we were placed were only interested in the ride, not the historical and cultural aspect of the tour. I think our tour guide felt limited by this. My husband and I would have liked a more informational tour. The riding experience was wonderful. We would recommend it heartily. |

We had a very nice time at our Segway tour. I'm not much of a group activity person but it was a pleasant and low key way to learn the Segway and see the museum campus area. |

The Segway experience was "just a blast". We had so much fun! The instructor was professional but firm with the people, which aged from young teen to early 60's.
I was, however, disappointed that we were not able to utilize our Go Chicago card for our earned discount. No where was it stated that we could have inserted this information to receive the proper discount. Then, to present it to the gentleman at the store, put him in an embarassing position when he had to say that "no, the discount cannot be refunded to you ." It was not fair to him, or us.
That is not a good way to do repeat business; however, we would recommend the Segway tour...with the above information included. |
