Chicago Two Hour Glide

Duration: 2 hours (approximately) Make a Reservation Back to Tours

This two-hour glide will cover the same route as our expanded three-hour tours, but will focus more on the experience of riding Segways through our beautiful parks and less on the history and quirky facts about our hometown. Tour breaks will be shortened to accommodate the two-hour time limit, so guests looking for a more leisurely experience should strongly consider our three-hour tour options at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. The 6pm Two Hour Glideis the perfect tour to see the city as the sun sets. This tour is perfect for the traveler or local that wants to try riding a Segway, but is constrained by a tight schedule. 

Reservations

Reservations are required for this tour. All walk-in customers will be served based on guide availability.
