It’s a great way to see the city! Tour guide Sarah was very knowledgeable and did a great job taking us around.
Colton was excellent!!! Super funny!!! We rode everywhere downtown and stopped at every tourist spot. He was knowledgeable about Chicago history.
I have been on several segway tours over the years and feel like there are less opportunities to explore cities via segway. Fortunately, my husband and I were guided by Kevin in Chicago. After completing the waiver sheets, helmet fitting and training, we were off. We began our tour near Millennium Park and were able to ride through Grant Park and along the Michigan Lake coast. We were able to see some of Chicago’s highlights while having fun. Kevin was always willing to snap a picture of us too. I recommend it!
We had such a great time- Tammy was our guide and she emphasized all the safety planning, eased us into riding and was incredibly patient during our ride! She was also a complete hoot - even my grumpy teenager was laughing and having fun! Thanks Tammy!!
Matt our guide was terrific! He made the trip fun and we learned so much! Definitely recommend highly this tour.
Fantastic tour!!! Michael was great, and good instructor with the Segway’s and keeping us all safe and informed! Would definitely highly recommend!
Fantastic afternoon sightseeing on the segway. Perfect thing for me to do with my 13 year old son. Our guide Colton was wonderful - knowledgeable, funny, and a very nice person. So glad I did this.
Very fun and educational about the history and sights of Chicago. Super fun and educational and hard to hit 100 characters
Tammy did a wonderful job training everyone how to use the Segway and the tour was very enjoyable. I would highly recommend.
Segway is a great way to explore an unfamiliar city. Tour leader, Kevin, did a great job of getting everyone familiar with the Segway machines and getting us out and about quickly. He was informative and entertaining.
