    Had a great time It was a nice long length a ride with lots of information thoroughly enjoyed it.

    Had an AMAZING time with the Segway tour. It was an extremely unique experience being able to tour the chicago highlights with a great tour guide. Highlights were definitely the history of natural history museum, planetarium, and aquarium. Definitely highly recommend for anyone's first time in chicago.

    We had a blast on our Lakefront & Museum Segway Tour! Ian was a great guide; fun, knowledgeable and patient. Definitely one of our favorite experiences in Chicago! Highly recommend!

    Our tour guide, Raquel, a beautiful day in Chicago, and a fantastic tour.

    Enthusiastically giving Absolutely Chicago Segway Tours FIVE STARS ... would give them more if I could. Here is why: 1. They are service oriented and very good at it. I called them ahead and told them that we have a special needs daughter. The manager, Aaron did not hesitate. He invited us to come in. He worked with my daughter to teach her how to ride while he was carefully evaluating her for safety as well as her needs. He then arranged for a private tour with our tour guide, Raquel who was at her home. Within a short time, Raquel came in and took us out for a fantastic and informative tour. 2. Their location is the best. They have rented space from a garage at the Millennium Park. This is very good because you get started with the tour right away and you don't waste time to get there. 3. They gave us a great orientation. My wife and I have done Segway tours in different parts of the world. So, we are pretty familiar with the whole process. But we learned new tips in handling Segway after their orientation. 4. Prices are very reasonable especially for a private tour. They charged $90 extra for the private tour (2 hours) plus normal fees and gratuity. That's very good considering the special attention Raquel provided for our special needs daughter. I really appreciate their positive attitude and their flexibility. Raquel is just a happy soul who made the whole experience exceptional as well as informative. THANK YOU.

    If you're visiting Chicago or a long time resident, this activity is just pure fun and you're bound to learn something new and interesting about the Windy City. Located in the bottom of Millennium Parking Garage head down East Monroe Street toward the lake and you'll see their signs. Really friendly staff and great Segway instruction before starting off on your 2 hour tour. We got really lucky with a nice temperate day and only the 4 of us on our tour. Our friends visiting from Pittsburgh felt like they got a great introduction to the city. Our guide Pat was very engaging, knowledgeable and watchful of our safety. Also a humorous, charming guy to spend a couple of hours listening to as he told stories of Chicago history on all the parks, fountains, artwork, museums, Soldier Field and the gorgeous buildings of the Chicago Skyline as we rode our Segways. Highly recommended - it's fun!

    Our family - 2 adults, 2 kids (14 and 12) - thoroughly enjoyed our Grant Park/Lakeshore/Museum Campus tour with Cari. She was fun, knowledgeable and helpful to first time "gliders". My kids said this was their favorite part of our weekend in Chicago - we'll be back for sure!

    We had a GREAT time on our Segway tour with Absolutely Chicago! They went above and beyond to accommodate us and help make our trip fabulous! Our guide was wonderful and it was the best (and most fun!) way to see a lot in a little time! Highly recommend!

    We booked this last minute. We have always wanted to go on a Segway tour but this was our first. We got our helmets, watched a video and met our guide Michael who did a great job showing us how to get on and use the Segways. After our entire family was comfortable using and stopping we departed thru millennium Park. We stopped several times over the 90 minutes to learn about different areas and items that we were passing. We drove around and they museum park and soldier field. We drove thru the outdoor exhibit of Agora. We finished our tour at the art Institue before driving back to the Segway drop spot. A great end to 9miles around the city. We learned a lot about the city and how to get around on a Segway. Make sure you get Michael if you go!

I wish the audio was a little bit louder on that level due to the sound of the fans and people talking. If you like my reviews, consider "following" my profile for reviews all across the SF Bay Area . Why "follow" someone? It causes the person you follow's reviews to tier to top when you pull up a business. I find this very handy when researching venues. Rod's Review grading scale explained. Essentially I personally base it on the likelihood of a return visit and I try to be stingy with 5 star reviews since they should be "special" in my eyes. Price/Value also play a role obviously but there are $ and $$$$ littered across my grading scale. 5 stars - "I'll go out of my way" (approx 6 % of my reviews) 4 stars- "If I was in the area I'd go here and would recommend", (approx 38% of my reviews) 3 stars "Maybe if was nearby", (approx 37% of my reviews) 2 stars -"Would likely not return, Only if you want to go", (approx 16% of my reviews) 1 star -"No thanks, even if I was hungry", (approx. 3 % of my reviews)

Me and my partner scheduled a 90-minute architecture tour for 06/24/2025 at 8:30PM (Total $90 for two tickets). We arrived early and while waiting, we received an email at 7:56PM saying there was an issue with their boat and they had to cancel the tour. We went down to the ticketing office and spoke with the employee. He explained there was an issue with their boat and it was impossible to refund our tickets at his ticketing office. He advised me that we could call the main office number and ask for a refund and then shrugged saying he wasn't sure if they would be able to. The employee stated he could reschedule us to 8:45PM (a firework tour - not what we wanted) or 9:00PM for the architecture tour. I advised him we would be fine with shifting our plans to 9:00PM. He printed me and my partner our tickets and we stepped aside to wait for an hour. We looked at the tickets and noticed that the 9:00PM tour was printed as only 45-minutes long, not the 90-minutes originally purchased. I went back up to the ticketing office and inquired about the discrepancy and asked for a refund on the difference, as the 45-minute tour was only $28 per ticket (Total $56 for two tickets). The employee again said he couldn't refund us for the difference. At this point I was upset because literally, what do you mean you can't refund the difference? After me being persistent (and a different employee also saying no refunds), they finally admitted they actually COULD refund me there, and then issued me a refund / receipt saying my card would be credited for the original amount in 2 - 5 days. I left completely confused by the interaction. How are YOU going to cancel on me, and then say "Oh no refunds" *shrug*. Umm you didn't provide the service I purchased... I would urge you to use literally any other architecture tour group.

My wife did this tour a couple years ago and highly recommended it, but I wasn't especially interested because I had also gone to school here and figured I knew enough about Hyde Park already. However, she insisted that it would be worth our while and so I agreed to climb on the bus. And it was the absolutely right decision, because the tour was excellent. In fact, it wasn't just a tour of Hyde Park. It included the surrounding neighborhoods of Washington Park, Kenwood, Jackson Park, and Woodlawn. Since this was a UChicago sponsored event much of the information related to the University's investment and involvement in the area. Our tour guide and founder of Chicago Detours, Amanda, is herself a graduate of UChicago and thus she had some additional insight into the relationship with the community. Though the 75-minute tour felt a little slow-going at times, there was much to learn about the vibrant but sometimes troubled history of the area. Amanda has tremendous knowledge and the excursion was both fascinating and entertaining. I can imagine that Chicago Detours would have equally interesting tours of other neighborhoods in this diverse city.
