| My sisters and I took our Mother (who is in her 70s) to visit Washington D.C. The staff is friendly, funny and patient. I was nervous about learning to ride the Segway, but the staff made each person feel comfortable with the learning process. We were all up and "running" in a half an hour. The tour information itself was informative as well as entertaining. I would take this tour again. |

| 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! |

| Aaron was great, we had a fantastic evening, he was equally patient with my timid beginning to the trip as he was my partner's daredevil take-off the second he put her on the Segway. Saw lots of great sights and had a wonderful time. Really enjoyed the unscripted tour with Aaron's personal touch instead of a recording. Absolutely recommended.
If you live here & are using this tour as a way to show your family or friends the city, tell your guide first and ask what may not be seen, our group didn't see the Lincoln and I didn't warn our guide in enough time to make a quick stop by the underground gazebo in the capitol lawn (I'm sure he would have stopped if i mentioned it). |

| By far one of the best things I have done so far on vacation ever. I was hesitant to get on a segway but after a few minutes of supervised attention, it was a snap. Can't wait to come back and do it again. |

| The tour guides were informative and fun! They really let you explore the speed of the segways and were really laid back and didn't make us stay in a single file line. My boyfriend and I got great pictures and a good understanding of the city. We had so much fun that when we take another trip to D.C., we would do the tour again! Segways are the best way to see the city! |

| I procrastinated for days trying to decide if it was worth $80 to do a 2 hour tour where I didn't even get to sit down - sure, it was different and something I'd never tried before, but I had only paid half as much for a 2 day hop-on-hop-off bus pass the previous weekend. Well - it was worth it AND MORE: what a GREAT way to see the city at street level and have fun at the same time! The Segway is easy to use, addictive, and the most fun I've had in ages.Our guide Evan was well informed, friendly and helpful and had us using the Segway confidently inside of 20 minutes. I had expected that it would be different (it was), and probably good fun (it most DEFINATELY was), and that 2 hours would be PLENTY (it most definately WAS NOT) - no-one in our group wanted it to end and we were all reluctant to give back our Segways. I hadn't expected that I would absolutely LOVE it and could have happily joined the next group - I can't recommend this activity highly enough: do yourself a favour and try it - you won't regret it! |

| True to their word, there's no Damage Deposit when you arrive for your tour. I enjoyed the first tour so much I came back for a second a few days later. |

| We had such a great time on the 12:00 noon tour that we came back the last night of our trip and went on the night tour. The guides were exceptional and did everything to make sure we had a GREAT time. 5 Stars to Capital Segway |

| My friends and I have traveled throughout Europe so we have been on many tours and this was by far our favorite tour! Our guides were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Segway tours allow you to see more in the same amount of time than walking tours, you get to enjoy being outside unlike in bus tours, and they're eaier to ride than bike tours! |

recommended, but a little long

| My wife and I had a good time and the people running the tour were superb. The only thing that I would be hesitant about is that you are standing on a small platform for 2 hours. I think both of our feet went to sleep at some point and this could be dangerous, because of the need to shift your weight to make the Segway move forward and back. Otherwise the tour was great. I will recommend it to friends, but will let them know about the one drawback.
Thank you,
