| This was a great way to get to know your way around DC and to discover all the things there are to see and do. The guide was great and very knowledgable. I have recommended a segway tour to everyone I know. |

| I would highly recommend this tour to anyone. The segway takes about 20 minutes to get comfortable on and then another 15-20 to 'master'. The staff is very helpful and conscientious on training you how to use it. It is one of the best ways to see DC since it is so spread out. The tour guides have plenty of information to share with you at each of the stops. They will take photos of you and your group (your camera) as well at any of the stops. This was very cool. |

| We took the tour today with Noah and Evan as our tour guides. They were both very helpful, courteous, knowledgeable, and professional. The tour was awesome! You see the capital highlights in a fraction of the time with MUCH more fun than walking or driving. Riding the Segway was a TON of fun!! That alone was worth the money, and when you couple it with the sights you see in the short time, it's fantastic!! We took the 7 p.m. tour at night, which I highly recommend. The night tour is very pretty with the lights, and it's far less crowded.
Overall outstanding experience that I would definitely do again and would highly recommend to anyone. I have to admit, I was skeptical at first and got talked into this by a family member, but it was AWESOME!! We all loved it and didn't want it to end!! |

| We were so excited to go on this Segway tour and believe me, we were not disappointed. It was well organized and the Segways were new and well maintained. The tourguides were knowledgable and informative. They were very helpful in getting us settled and comfortable on the Segways as well. It just was such a great event - we would highly recommend this tour to anyone! |

| This was my first time riding a segway. It was so much fun! It was easy to learn how to maneuver the segway even on the crowded streets and sidewalks. Our guide did a great job of making sure we were safe and confident. She also was very knowledgeable about the area. She shared many facts and stories- very interesting.
I couldn't believe how much we were able to view in the two hours. There was time for a break and time for "free wheeling" at the end. I would recommend this activity to anyone visiting Washington. It was well worth the money. |

| I've wanted to ride a Segway since they were first introduced, so I was thrilled to find that one could tour DC on one! The folks at Capital Segway were very helpful and professional. Nice balance between traditional tour-guide information and just the general fun of zipping around on a Segway. If you're considering it, DO it. You'll be nervous for about 20 seconds; an hour later you'll be telling tourists what a great time you're having! |

| This was a great way to see our beautiful capital city. When I return to D.C. I'm doing it again with my husband. |

A Great Time Was Had By All

| It was cold, rainy and this husband, wife and 16 year old daughter, who rarely agree on what constitutes a good time, did agree that this did not look promising. After the brief, but adequate training, we and our group of 8 or so others were out the door and onto the wet, Washington streets. Our two guide/shepherds were very nice, fun and armed with much Washington trivia that was shared with us via radio receivers that each person wore. As our skills quickly improved and the weather dried out, we really began to have fun! Zooming around so effortlessly and quickly is something that has to be experienced to even begin to be appreciated. After our tour was completed, and our Segways returned to their places, we left the store and strolled away down the sidewalk. In a very short time it became painfully apparent: WALKING JUST SUCKS! When the astronauts on the International Space Station and the NASA Space Shuttles talk about the joy of living in weightlessness, I bet that riding a Segway is, in some very small way, the same sort of joyous experience. At least these three participants can agree on that. |

| This tour is a fun overview of the DC sights and buildings. It is a good introduction to the area layout, and provides some good leads on what to see more of on foot. The Segway itself is a blast to ride, and the new models with the tiller steering are very easy to control. |

| Very enjoyable and fun. Thanks for a great tour. Would recommend it to anyone! This is the best way to see D.C. especially when very limited on time. |
