| We were in DC for 4 days. We did the Segway tour on the first day just to get acquainted with the city. I wish I had it for the other 3 days. There is a LOT of walking in DC. The Segway was a blast. A lot more of a workout than you might think. BRING WATER WITH YOU!!! Once you learn to trust the machine, it is a piece of cake. I'll probably consider renting one for a day or two next time I go back. |

| it was really funny and recommended for people that like something different but you should understand that this is a turistic activity and not everybody speak english perfectly, so it would be perfect if the guide will speak any other language.
I am from Spain and i talk a little bit of english but i almost didn´t understand any explication about the Washington´s monuments.
Anyway, i loved the expirience.
Thank you |

| My 16-year old son and I took the Capitol Segway tour on Halloween Day. Our tour guides were in costume (Superman & Sarah Palin), which set a jovial tone for the tour. The orientation was brief, painless and thorough. Our guides were knowledgeable about the sites we tour, had interesting asides and helped us map out the rest of our visit to D.C. The Segway itself is very easy to operate but is nonetheless fun and exhilarating. It's a quick way to get an overview of some of the District's main sites and would be about 10-times as entertaining as a bus tour. Happily, we were blessed with unseasonably pleasant weather. |

| My family and I took the Capital Segway tour in DC. We had the best time! Karen, our guide, was fantastic. She showed us how to use the Segways in the store and then took us to the park for more practice. We saw all of the sights in DC while riding by people on our Segways. My son rode the X2 Segway, an off road model while his friend, my husband and myself rode the I 2, on road model. We wore helmets but did not need knee pads or elbow pads. My son's friend asked to look in a gift shop and Karen stayed with the Segways while we looked. I highly recommend this tour to everyone, athletic and klutz's alike. |

| We were up on the Segways in the showroom no problem, spent a few minutes outside in the park really getting the feel of the machine, and then it was off to see the monuments. The tour was terriffic. Amazed at how easily we fit in with pedestrians. The only downside was some slight aching of muscles in the back of both legs below the calves and above the ankles of one person of two (male). That went away after a few days and I would certainly jump back on a Segway the next chance I get. |

| This is the second time I've taken this segway tour - the first I was alone and this time it was my wife and another couple of friends. The equipment is first rate, our guide was fantastic, it only takes about 3 minutes to get comfortable on the segway and mostly it is just plain fun!!! Our guide allowed us to zip around and have some freedom while still controlling the route, etc. We zipped all over the Mall area and had a lot of fun. I highly recommend this. It is vastly easier and more fun than a bike, skates, etc. |

| I had a great time! I was amazed at how quickly I became comfortable with the Segway machine. I wasn't so much interested in the tour but rather in getting to operate the Segway in and around the Mall area. Now if I could just have used the red key. |

| Having previously done a bus tour and a "ducks" tour, I wanted to do a walking tour of D.C., but my primary purpose there (business travel) severely limited my time. So, with that in mind - and intrigued by the Segway technology - I signed up for the Segway tour, and found it to be most excellent. My tour guide Maryann (sp?) was knowledgeable and very collegial. The tour covered a number of areas I hadn't previously seen, and the Segway is a perfect way to travel D.C. -- covering a great deal of ground in a short time. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone, and -- since I did the night tour - I will probably try to do a longer day tour on a future trip. |

| This is absolutely the way to go as far as a street tour of Washington D.C. Our tour guides were both entertaining and very knowledgeable of the area. They were constantly aware of our safety. The Segways and other associated equipment were all in tip top condition. Overall a great experience and I highly recommend Capital Segway. |
