Amusing joy

Amazing experience, Marshal and his buddy were very patiente and were both very cordial and conveyed a lot of joviality which made everything more enjoyable

Amazing evening tour!

My 15 yr old son & I tried this for the first time & it was so much fun! Our guide Kevin, was good at instruction of the Segways to make sure we felt comfortable riding them, & explaining all the attractions downtown. We got to see so many things we never even knew existed in Chicago. I highly recommend doing the evening tour with the fireworks over Navy Pier- our view of the skyline was absolutely amazing! We would definitely do this again!

Fun just zipping around

The moon over the Fountain. The fountain, changing color and heights and the moon just overstriing everything.

Great activity for families with teens!

Response from Host, Jul 2022

We think the city is magical with its twinkling lights, illuminated buildings, and fireworks displays. Thank you for riding with us.

Big glitch!

Ann_V, Aug 2021
No memories were created as the text with my tickets and change of location were not received until the day after the event! I'm having a problem that since the tour went ahead, Viator will not refund my money. Very angry.

Fantastic!

Tour was excellent. One of the best activities in Chicago! Our tour guide Fred was the best!!!! We would definitely do this again on our next visit

Best tour of night time Chicago

Cari was such a phenomenal tour guide!!! Even though we had EDGAR, we all had a blast! Cari was knowledgeable and funny! The views of downtown at night were worth every Penny! I have gone on many Segway tours and this nighttime fireworks tour was my favorite! We had a perfect view of the fireworks and the beautiful lot of city of Chicago! It was a perfect evening!
