See The City Tour - A Segway Tour of Washington DC

We had a great time, the tour was fantastic. The guides were gentle and well informed about the touristic attractions. Touring by segways is great fun and a absolutely different way for sightseeing.

My nephew and I had a blast! At the end of the tour we both didn't want to get off our segways...we would highly recommend trying this activity.

Our tour was cancelled at noon on the day we were to go. Out reservation was at 1:00. I am suppose to be receiving a credit for the tour. Very unhappy that the tour did not take place.

The tour was great and riding the segways was so much fun! The Capital Segway people were very helpful on the phone when answering my questions. Also, the our guides were quite entertaining! Highly recommended!

Get it? We took the Segway tour, not as a way to learn about DC, but rather as a chance to play around on Segway devices. I feel like the tour guide felt that way also. He didn't have anything particularly insightful to say about the city, but that was fine. We rode around and he gave us the 30 second story about the stops we made and his personal opinions of them. Bystanders were in awe as we zoomed around on our futuristic people movers. It was loads of fun. The price was fair too, as I feel like we definitely got our money worth. If you've been to DC bunches of times or have never been at all, this tour is a great way to see the city in a different way.

We had never Segway'ed before and thought it would be a great way to combine a new experience with seeing the sights of Washington D.C. via the 6pm "dusk" tour. Despite being complete novices, the team at Capitol Segway had us up & running in no time and were very consicous of our safety throughout, ensuring the group kept together and crossed roads safely. As the night drew in, we were given flashing lights for our Segways to ensure we were visible to all. The tour directors were very knowledgeable - we nicknamed one of them the "human megaphone" as his delivery was so loud and clear it was unmissable! The commentary was excellent - lots of time for photos at each stop and there were some really interesting tidbits throughout the 2+ hour tour. We finished with huge grins on our faces (and slightly stiff legs from standing for so long in one place, despite a couple of stetching breaks) and definitely wished we could keep the Segways!

You can cover alot of sightseeing ground in a very short time period. You don't need to be coordinated to Segway. A wonderful option for families with teenagers!

We thought the Segway tour was awesome. Handling the machines became second nature after the short instruction period. Our 16 year old son loved it. He didn't even mind seeing all of the museums, the Capitol and the White House. We covered more ground, and had more fun doing it, than if we walked. We would highly recommend this tour.

I took my teenage children (16 abd 18) on the 2 hr Washington DC Segway tour and it was a great way to see the sights around the mall.... and have fun doing it! Once you get the feel of the Segway, which doesn't take long, it was a blast! I'm surprised someone hasn't souped up one of these babies and started a Segway X- games.... Within your comfort range, you can ride more or less "conservatively", but I never felt unsafe. The guides were great , as well. I'd buy one for myself, until they told me they go for around 5 grand.....
