| Our guide was great! So glad we did the evening tour because the temperature was cool, the crowds were less, and the lighted monuments were beautiful. Our segway tour was the most memorable activity of a very busy week.. Recommend that you tour early in your visit (rather that the last). Only negative was some of the idiots in our group ("can we stop to shop for a t-shirt"). |

| My husband has always wanted to do a Segway tour and being someone who is afraid of rollerskating or bicyclying I have refused. As a surprise anniversary gift this year I booked us a weekend trip to Washington D.C. and as part of the trip we were to take a Segway tour. To put it mildly HE LOVED IT and SO DID I!!!! After viewing the instructional video I was terrified of falling, being mamed, etc. However, just after a few minutes of personalized instruction from a very, very patient young man, I was off and gliding! My husband enjoyed the ride, but I think he more enjoyed watching me overcome my fear. The machines were wonderful and very easy to use. One of the teenagers on our tour insisted that her mother purchase one when they finished the trip. The tour guides were fantastic and very informative. They even kept our group up to date on the score of the U.S. vs. Brazil soccer game which was taking place during our tour. I would highly recommend this experience for anyone, young & old, who would like to see D.C. from a different perspective. We have toured D.C. many many times in our 33 years of marriage (even spent our honeymoon there). This was by far one of the best tours that we have ever taken and will definitely do it again. We are now looking into a Segway tour for our trip to San Juan, Puerto Rico at Christmas time with our adult children. Can't wait !!! |

| Tour guides were very knowledgeable and professional. It was very easy to learn how to use the segways. We enjoyed being able to see all the historical sites and take pictures. It was great to also hear specific history about the sites. It's a great way to scope out the city to see what museums you want to go back to. We had a great time. Definitely worth the money. Would do it again with out hesitation. |

| First time on a Segway and it was a lot of fun. Good to have the wireless headsets - not sure all the segway tour companies have them. Probably spent more time playing around on the Segway than looking at sights, but still saw a good few things and picked up some useful local information. Would recommend it to anybody. |

| Wow, what a blast!
I have been on a segway before a couple of years ago, so I knew how much fun they were already, but that was just a two hour rental, not a tour. This was SO MUCH MORE! A tour with informative and fun guides, and a great way to have fun! My guy had never done it before, and now he praises it to high heaven.
DC is a perfect city to segway in, and Capital Segway is the perfect segway experience. The guides were terrific! Learned some new things and they would take us some places that we could really open up the throttle (as much as a segway can, about 12 mph but feels fast) if we wanted to. and I always did when given the cance. There were people from age 20 - 70's in our group, and all had a great time. |

| ...but two things that you might want to mention on the next tour...
> feet placement is very important...and everytime that you re-position your feet, you almost have to re-learn your balancing, and...
> your feet will get tired quickly from standing in one place for a long time, so comfortable shoes are a must. |

| As a long time Washington resident I had never visited so many monuments so easily. The instruction on the Segway was comprehensive and the machine itself a pleasure and fun to use. Both my daughter and I had a most pleasurable trip. I highly recommend this tour. |

2. Very friendly staff.
3. Have you ever wondered what it's like to ride a segway? Don't wonder about it, do it. |

| I purchased this outing as a birthday gift for my wife. She was in DC to visit our daughter for the weekend. They had a wonderful time and would go again in a heartbeat. |
