| My husband and I booked this tour for my 16 year old niece who was visiting us from New York. It was a lot of fun for all. She was most excited about riding the Segway (quick and easy learning curve by the way) and learned some interesting facts about the sites on the tour. She was then able to decide which one she wanted to come back and visit. My husband and I live in Maryland and it was cool to come into the city for non-work purposes and learn some interesting facts about the monuments we drive by every day. I recommend it for tourists and locals alike. The tour is a bit pricey in my opinion, but once you factor in the price of the machines you're riding and the uniqueness of the experience - the money becomes well spent. |

| My wife and I took several tours during our stay in D.C. Most of them were pretty decent, with one being terrible. My wife suggested the Segway tour and I was more than a little apprehensive about riding around on one of the segways. Once we got there and started the tour I was very happy that I went. Our tour guide Antonio was very knowledgeable of the area and really tried to make everyone have a great time. Something to note was that the weather wasn't great. It was cold and rainy, but that did not stop us from having the time of our lives. Thank you Capitol Segways. Great Job!!! |

| My only suggesiton would be to not have the tour guide anwser phone calls during the tour-he was polite and told them that he would have to call them back but my suggestion would be to not anwser them at all while we are on tour (working) and trying to explain the history, that just takes away from the tour.
Also, we had a few in our group that were a little abnixious but I felt as though the two tour guides were afraid to tell them to stop doing things they know the participant should not be doing-the tour guides are in charge so they shouldn't hesitate to tell anyone to stop doing something.
I hightly recommend this tour-very fun and I look forward to doing it again! |

| The earpiece was a good idea. It helped us have more frredom than on other Segway tours in other cities. |

| The Combination of seeing DC and riding the Segway was a thrill, I would enjoy a 3 hour tour that could take you to the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorial as well |

| I have been around Washington for many years, so the tour of Washington was not why I chose the tour. That said, the tour was very interesting.
I wanted to try out the Segway, and I wondered how difficult it would be to use. I found the Segway easy to get to use, and the short training session beforehand very helpful (confidence building).
Anyway, I very much enjoyed the Segway tour of Washington, and I would recommend it to any who might have the desire to try it. |

| We loved this tour and our tour guide, Will. It was just the right amount of time (2 hours). Anything longer we would have gotten a bit tired and anything shorter would have left us wanting more. Keep in mind that if you are older or out of shape, this tour will tire you because you are standing and working your calf muscles for 2 straight hours. My wife was surprised and even a little taken aback when I told her I booked this tour, but by the end she was a complete fan and I was a hero for booking this totally cool, completely different type of tour. Will was very good about providing real historical details along our tour and he was always ready to take a photograph (good ones too!) if you wanted. I suggest you bring some water or grab a bottle of water in their office (they had a couple boxes sitting in the office, but they never offered it to any of the guests which was a bit strange). |

| Tour slightly limited by huge range of ability of "tourists". We spent a very long time in the park across the street before actually going anywhere. That said, I would still recommend it. |

A great time. We're planning to do it again!

| It was a blast. Adam, Noah, and Jason got us up and running quickly and were all terrific guides. We enjoyed the sights a lot, even though half of us were local. It was surprising how much ground we covered. We're planning to do it again soon . . . like in another week when our next guest comes. You have become our favorite thing to do with out-of-towners and I even recommend it to my in-town friends. |
