| Thanks for this opportunity to say how much we enjoyed this tour of DC landmarks! I felt a little dubious and nervous at first as I'm not the world's best balancer but after a few minutes on the Segway I was away!!!!! What a hoot! It's the best fun I've had in a long time. My husband (52) and children (19 and 20) all want a Segway now and so do I! The guides were informative, very friendly and couldn't have been more helpful. I shall certainly do this tour again with other visitors........but I may well just do it again for the fun of it! |

| The capital segway tour was excellent! I absolutely loved it and will always recommend it to others. The night tour is beautiful and great for taking pictures. The tour guides were very informative and super friendly. I really liked how they would look out for everyone's safety when we were near vehicles. I felt very safe and comfortable enough to ask them questions. I really liked that we all had our own audio receivers to be able to listen to our tour guides during the entire time. I did notice, during the tour we passed by another segway tour (not part of capital segway)that did not have the audio receivers and could not hear what their tour guides were saying. Needless to say, there was a lot of screaming and confusion in that tour group. I cannot say enough great things about Capital Segway tours. |

| 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. |

| I grew up 15 minutes outside the city and went on the tour with a friend who had never been to DC before, and both of us had a blast! The segways are so much fun and really do provide a unique way to see the city. It isn't the most informative tour of the city though because there aren't many points at which the tour guide stops to talk, but they do point out most of the major buildings, even if they don't get an explanation. The tour is definitely worth the time and money. |

| It was definitely not my idea to take a Segway tour of DC, but I went along with it anyway. I didn't want to spend the money, and I was nervous about learning how to ride a new machine since I tend to be clumsy. It turned out to be a FANTASTIC experience! Riding a Segway was easy and fun! The tour guides were very knowledgeable and gave bits of information at each of the stops and offered to take pictures for us. We saw everything in 2 hours, which meant we could spend the rest of our time at the other places we wanted to see. I would highly recommend it, and I would go on another Segway tour if I had the opportunity! :) It is well worth your time and money! |

| The guides were very good at teaching how to use a Segway and the importance of safety issues. They were knowledgeable about the area we toured, and seemed to enjoy the ride as much as the customers. I'd like to do more extensive touring on a Segway. |

Easy to use, but wear supportive shoes

| It was definitely enjoyable cruising around DC, drawing stares and relishing the blessing of not needing to walk the tour. Our guide admitted herself that she was new to the city and even though her cache of capital trivia was far from off-putting, I really only recommend the tour to try out the ridiculously easy and fun to use segway. It was easy to grow comfortable using them, given the instructor's patient and experienced guidance. I think my only suggestion is to wear a supportive shoe when you're using segways--I have collapsed arches and painful bunions, so while the segways were a joy to use, standing for two hours became considerably uncomfortable for me. |

| This was a very enjoyable activity. The tour was well done and entertaining and the addition of the novelty and downright fun of riding the Segway(s) made it one of the highlights of the trip. |

| Myself (mid-twenties) and my grandparents went to DC, and heard about this from a friend. Lots of fun, I and my Grandmother loved it, and my Grandfather at least liked it. Highly recommended |

| The segway tour was one of the best activities I have experienced in DC. It was great to see all the monuments and sights but honestly I was too busy having fun on my segway. The reason I signed up was to show an international relative around the nation's capital. A fun time was had by everyone in the group. I would highly recommend it! I would go back just to ride the segways again. The guides were great too! |
