Glide around on our Chicago Evening Segway Tour

Join Fat Tire Tours for an evening adventure through Chicago! This two-hour glide through the Windy City covers similar highlights as our standard three-hour Chicago Day Segway Tour, with a fun nighttime twist. Our iconic skyline looks even better as the sun sets and the city lights and park fountains begin to glow! Every one of our tours begin with a thorough introduction and training on how to ride a Segway at our office, so no need to worry if you've never ridden before. Our expert team will make sure you are comfortable before we take off into the night. Your group size is limited to ensure a safe and personal experience with your tour guide and fellow riders. 

This tour glides through Grant Park, enjoying an epic sunset over Lake Michigan and the Chicago skyline. The famous Buckingham Fountain light show begins at dusk from mid-April through mid-October, and this beautiful display of light and color really is a treat! We'll cruise out to Museum Campus, home to Chicago's world-class museums including the Field Museum of Natural History, the John G. Shedd Aquarium, and the Adler Planetarium. From here, you get another fantastic view of the skyline! Whether you're brand new to Chicago or a local, we're sure you'll learn something new. 

Your local, expert guide will be happy to provide additional advice and tips once your tour is over to help you decide hot to spend the rest of your evening out in Chicago. Ride with us and experience the fun and beauty of Chicago at night!
