| My husband and I took the DC tour on July 4th. The intro to using the segways was thourough and informative. We found the machines to be really easy to navigate and a blast to ride on.
I must admit we were disappointed that we didn't get to see a number of the itinerary sites (including Washington Monument, Smithsonian Castle, Botanic Gardens) but given the crowds in town on the 4th, and the parade closing certain streets the guides told us they weren't able to cover as much ground as they normally do. They didn't seem to have a planned route due to the parade, which I thought should have been well known and accounted for.
None the less, the guides were friendly, informative and we wouldn't hesitate to tell our friends to take the tour (just not on a holiday) |

| this really was a great way to have fun and see the sights at the same time. The Segway was easy to use - I would recommend this tour and when I am next in DC, I am going to take another ride. |

| The guides were very patient and friendly. Their knowledge of the tour sites around DC were quite interesting as well as informative. I had the most fun I have ever had on a tour anywhere. It was awesome. Learning about the monuments, buildings, statues and all other landmarks while riding on a Segway, was just FUN!
I told anyone who asked while we were riding, just how much fun it was.
I could not stop smiling, it was just so entertaining.
The guides not only gave us detailed information on how to safely ride a Segway, but made sure they covered all of the information about what sites we were seeing. Including the lesser know bits that may not have come out from some other tour. They even offered to take pictures of any of us at any time.
That was a quick two hours. It was difficult to give it up.
The tour was outstanding. We will go again and we will do the Segway tour again. |

| My husband and I enjoyed all the aspects of this experience. The training provided was quick, but, I always felt if I had not been comfortable more time would have been taken with me. I found It really simple to use the Segway and we had a good training ground in the park across from the office. We visited the office to be sure of the tour location, and I must recommend that step to other strangers to the area. Josh was very knowledgeable
and entertaining about the buildings and monuments, he and Adam were good at taking photos at various places and the whole experience was one I will be pleased to repeat. I now wish we had also done the night tour. Personnally I would like to rent segways and Josh to be our all day-guide to really wander all over the city. What about it?? Any longer tours possible in the future?? |

| While most other tours were three hours, I chose this one since it was only two. I was right on that call. The last 15 min of the tour, I was feeling tired and cold. Two hours on Segway means that you have been standing for two hours straight.
The group consisted of men and women aged 40-50s (except for me) and they all had a great time. We were not in DC for a fun tour, but on business. It was a nice relief to the intense meetings we have had during the day. |

| The Segway tour offered a quick over view of DC's main sight seeing locations while offering a fun and informational experience offered by their tour guide. I would recommend it to anyone visiting, and friends who live in the DC's to offer something "different" to do. |

| We have been fortunate to have been invited to DC 4 times before, with meetings in the White House, Capitol hill and the Pentagon.
Your tour certainly was a highlight. Keep up the good work.

| I did the tour with my 16-yr old nephew. If he was excited before the event, he was doubly so after. We also had the good fortune of sunny, 75-degree weather. We covered a whole lot of ground, and discovered later how hard walking the same distance can be. I believe our guide was Will, and he provided an enthusiastic round of facts and stories while clearly keeping us all together and out of trouble. The Segways themselves were an experience not to be missed. I think the sense of them under our feet is something that will stay with both of us for a long time to come. |
