Dear sir/madam,
My friend Chris and I had a wonderful time on the tour. We had two guides: Noah and some other guy (sorry btw!). Noah was very easy going and informative. It was impressive that the two worked together to make sure we were comfortable (e.g. one waiting/guiding at a curb to ensure that things went smooth). The other guy was very nice but didnt deliver his jokes very well. I could tell that he was trying hard but I think it felt "forced" and somehow subtracted something from the experience. Another thing is I wish we could have somehow seen the Lincoln Memorial (or maybe the tidal basin with the famous not-in-bloom cherry blossoms?). It seemed a little weird that it wasn't included.
Finally, I wish there was a discount for groups. I would like to book the tour for my parents and brother when they come out to visit but $70 pp seems borderline expensive. It ALMOST makes be consider just looking into rentals as an alternative to dropping $300 in two hours.
Thank you for providing such a fabulous experience!
Sincerely,
Sarah
PS Noah is cute |

The tour guides were friendly, they explained everything and made sure we really had fun. i expected the tour to last a bit longer though. It was my first time riding a segway and it was a lot of fun. $65 is bit much for just ~ 2 hours though. $50 seems like a fair price. Overall it was a nice experience and highly recommended if you have not tried riding a segway before. |

My wife and I really enjoyed this tour. If you only have a day or two in DC this is a great way to get a look at all the major sights. It's going to be mostly about the ride for everyone else. Segways rule. |

We love segways - and we have toured Venice Beach, Santa Monica, San Diego, Epcot in Florida, Toronto, and now Washington DC, on them.
They are so futuristic - can't understand why the whole world hasn't embraced these as a logical form of transportation. The tour on a segway allows you to travel farther distances than if you were walking, yet gives you the up close and personal view that you get from a walking tour.
The guides are knowledgable, and FUN, giving lots of freedom to the rider. We also enjoyed becoming somewhat of a tourist attraction ourselves.....
All in all, an absolutely fabulous way to do a quick tour of the highlights of the area, giving us a chance to see which spots would be worth a longer and more dedicated visit. I highly recommend it to everyone, of every age, and we are looking forward to our next holiday segway tour....... |

The Segway tour of Washington DC was awesome! I enjoyed it so much I came back and did it again at the end of the day to see the city in lights. I would highly recommend this activity for all. It is easy to learn how to ride the Segway, and I am 64 years old! |

This was a great trip on the Segways and a great way to get some of the simple secrets of DC. I would recommend anyone try this as a quick tour of DC and then come back and see some of the details that they find interesting |

This made myvacation! I haven't had so much fun in a long time and I want to own a Segway!!! The tour operators were great and very knowledgable about the city. They had little known details that were entertaining as well as informative. |
