A great gimick

You could easily do this kind of DC tour much cheaper on a rented bike. But riding the Segway is most of the fun and is worth the money. You start out kind of shaky on the Segway, but you end up "trusting the machine." Guides take good care of you. Not the most informative tour, but who cares? Your too busy 'skiing' on the Segway.

What a blast?

So much fun and the evening tour was the best. Cooler weather, the monuments were lit and beautiful, and the sidewalks were cleared of the usual pedestrian traffic. The Segway was easy to ride an Aaron gave a great tour.

Wonderful Experience!

A few co-workers and I from out of town were here for an orientation and we decided to take a tour of DC. We LOVED it!! The tour guides were knowledgeable and funny and the segways were a wonderful way to see such a large city in 2 hours. We went back to the office and told everyone they should try it and use this as a team-building exercise in the future!! I'll definitely do this again when we visit the DC area in the future! Thanks!!

If the tour size is too large, two guides assisting seems inadequate. Try to pick a tour with a smaller group.

So great I didn't want to give back my segway!

It was a great activity, and much easier than what it looked like when we received the first training at the store. It is safe and the tour guides make it safer watching everybody all the time.

Good but could be better...

We really enjoyed riding the segways throughout the city. However, we think the tour could use some improvement. Most of it was "here is this monument, here is this building, here are a few facts about these sites." Brief and incomplete would be the best words I would use to describe the tour. Moreover, due to traffic signals at the crosswalks, sometimes the tour guides would begin their spiel before everyone in the group (there were ten of us) would be at the same location as the tour guide. Not very cool for people in the back of the tour. So, if you are looking for a fun two hours riding around on a segway, then do this tour. If you want a more in depth tour, perhaps this is not your tour to take.

Fantastic experience - oh, the tour was good too

The Segway experience was completely fantastic! I am a klutzy person but I had no trouble at all learning to use the Segway in less than 1 minute. This is an excellent way to see the DC historical sites without all that walking which just wears me out. It's also fun to watch people, watching you. I highly, highly recommend this tour. It's worth every cent, and more! Every time I go on vacation, I'm going to check whether there is a Segway tour at that location. It was awesome. Thanks for being the highlight of our stay!

Perfect way to tour DC

The segways provided a great saving of time and energy in getting an overview of the sights of DC. The tour guides were helpful and informative. The tour gave us a chance to identify locations and activities that we could concentrate on at another time. The segways were great fun!

so nice I did it twice

I took my cousin on the segway tour and I had previously gone on the tour with my parents who begged to go on the segways. I think that is a great way to see some of the city. I am disappointed that your tour does not go by the supreme court, also it would be nice if you hit some of the monuments like Jefferson and Lincoln. The stories are pretty good for the sights, sometimes it is hard to hear the guide especially if your in the back of the line. The only negative are the homeless in the practice riding park area.
