| The guides were very knowledgeable, patient, and clear with their instructions on how to operate the Segways. They stressed safely as the number one goal, and to have fun as well. They were able to deal with all the ability levels in our group.
I wasn't quite sure if the 2 hours included the instructions as well. When I read the website description it stated in one area that the 2 hours included instructions. But then another sentence in bold print said to come 30 minutes early for processing and instructions.
If instructions were not to be part of the 2 hours, then our tour time ended 20 minutes too soon. This might need to be clarified.
Otherwise, all went well. I will certainly recommend this to my family and friends. |

| We are 65 and 66 years old and enjoyed the Segway tour immensely. It was easy to learn to use despite our initial apprehensions and it was fun getting around Chicago on wheels. Guides were patient with everyone and informative on the tour.
It would be nice if Segway could provide a "certificate of accomplishment" for first timers. It would provide a nice souvenir for tourists. Or perhaps a little Segway ornament as a remembrance of a great time.
We would definately do it again. |

It was a much fun as we anticipated.

| The people in the show room were efficient and professional. The tour guide was friendly and very helpful as well as being very competent. The instruction period was just right and the directions given were very clear. The tour itself, was also well done - nice scenery, informative narration and about the right length for beginners. We plan on going on other Segway tours! |

| The tour was informative and scenic. But, more important it was also a great way to ride on a Segway for two hours. The overall instruction and safety review enabled everyone to have an safe and enjoyable tour. The quality of the instructors/guides was excellent. |

| I thought that this was a great activity! It was really fun to get to use the Segways and we got to see many great highlights of Chicago since we could get around faster than on foot.
My only complaint is that the description on the website made it seem as though the registration and training all took place a half hour before the tour and that the tour was a complete two hours. In fact, the training took place during the first half hour and the tour was the remaining hour and a half. I think an hour and a half is long enough for the tour, I just think that the advertising of the tour should be clearer and more accurate. |

| I'd never been on a segway, but was intrigued by them ... what a fabulous way to try something new and see some familiar sights in a whole new way.
Totally fun! |

| I did this with my 14 year old grandson, and we had a great time. The tour was very professionally run and lots of fun. Our guide (Sarah) did a great job of teaching us how to handle the Segway and leading us through Grant park. |
