| My wife and I are in our mid 60's and were hosting a visit by a friend from Italy aged 31. She wanted to do a tour of Washington, and in doing some research on the web, I came across your site. None of us had ever even actaully seen a Segway, but we are fairly active, so we thought it might be fun to try. After a short demo session we were off to try the units in the park across the street, and after that we were on our way. It turned out to be a lot easier than you might think, and we were soon moving around with confidence. The only problem we had was lining the segway up with the wheelchair accessable cutouts at the pedistrian crossings - some of them are pretty narrow, so you have to be pretty well lined up to get thru them without problems. I have to say at the end, i was really comfortable on the Segway and was really enjoying the ride - so i was reluctant to have the tour end. I would certainly recommend this tour to anyone, of any age. My wife and i certainly enjoyed the tour and our visitor told us it was the highlight of her visit so far.

| The sales staff was very friendly and the orientation was quick and easy. The tour itself was fun and covered alot of locations. Some tour information was interesting, but on the whole I was hoping it would be more informative. Still - you've got an excellent selling point....Segways are FUN!! |

Thrilling!

| We had a great time seeing DC on the Segway. After the initial concern about learning how to use the Segway, our minds were put at ease by our tour captain, Alex. He was very patient and made sure we were all comfortable on our Segways before leaving the store. Thanks for a great time! We will definately do this again with others that come to visit. |

AWESOME!

| The Segway Tour with Capital Segway was AMAZING! I can't even begin to tell you how much fun I had. Was in town on business by myself and decided to take the evening tour! The tour guides made if so interesting and exciting...plus the Segways are a great time! I may even do a tour in another city very soon! This is a must-do in DC! |

| it is a very nice experience and it realy worths the price asked. Be aware that riding a segway it is easy but could be dangerous. The rental guys and the guide will provide you with all the necessary advices. Follow their instructions. |

All good

| A great experience. I would find going with large groups less exciting because that would be too much waiting for others, etc. However, this is a great time, a fun way to cover a ton of ground, and get the inside scoop on the city. The guide was very good. I will be coming back next fall with my family and will definitely use Capital Segway again. I will probably pay a little extra for a private tour ... |

Awesome!

| I had a great time. The segway was a wonderful way to get around Washington DC and see some of the sites. I went on a night tour and our guide took us to some great places. What a fun time. Yes, I would definitely tell others to go and do this! |

It's Great!

| It turned out even better than I thought it would be. Segways are really perfect for this particular kind of activity and they are very easy and intuitive to ride on. The tour was good and our guide was very knowledgeable. My only complaint was that the tour did not cover the portion of the mall that includes the reflecting pool and Lincoln memorial. I understand that Seqways are currently restricted from those areas and that they are working on changing that. |

| The Segways and the tour would have been good individually, but together they outstanding.
Our guide was enthusiastic and knowledgeable about DC and took great care of our safety. Even after the tour he was keen to offer suggestions for restaurants and other things to enhance our time in DC.
There's something magical about a Segway. They were surprisingly easy to learn to use and were great fun even around the local park. When you put them together with whizzing alongside the White House, the Mall, and the Capitol you have a great combination. |
