| A lot of fun learning to ride the Segway and it would be fun to own and use one on a daily/weekly basis. |

| We had been given information on the Segway tour but I was aprehensive and wasn't sure if I wanted to go. That would have been a great mistake, not going. We not only enjoyed the tour but are now considering buying a Segway for our personal use. The best kept secret in Washington. |

| We went to DC and the Segway tours with mixed expectations--primarily because the weather was not all that promising. However, the sun did come out (after a little bit of light drizzle) and we had a fantastic ride. It was definitely over too soon! The guides were great, the Segways were not as challenging as feared and the tour interesting. Definitely a "must-do" activity! |

| Segways are easy to learn how to use and a lot of fun. An excellent way to get from site to site in Washington. However, the "tour" aspect was lacking in that "newbies" on an Segway are focused on the machine and cannot absorb the content of the tour guides as much as they might otherwise. Also, city noise makes it difficult to hear a group which, because of being on Segways, cannot be gathered close enough to the speaker. |

It will stay with us for a long time . . .

| 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. |

| Had a great time. It was so much fun maneuvering the segway through the streets of DC. Even though all of the hazards of segway riding were pointed out prior to the tour, I would recommend that they include warning everyone that the distance between some of the security barriers on Pennsylvania Ave will not allow a segway to pass through. One of our members went between two barriers that were closer together than would allow a segway to pass through. She, of course, went flying off. But, even though we had a few falls, everyone agreed that it was lots of fun! |

| I have been thinking about buying a Segway, and wanted more time on one. I chose the tour, although living in Washington for many years, I really didn't need it. But the guide was fine, he had some interesting points to make, and I got to spend two hours riding around.
I have some neuromuscular problems and haven't moved as quickly or effortlessly as I did. It was great fun. I did goof and took a fall, but it was my error. The segway is wonderful. |
