I had a great time on this tour. They gave my friend and I ample time to get comfortable on the segway before starting the tour, the start/end location was incredibly convenient, and the tour guides were very informative and amusing. The only thing I would have preferred would have been a trip to the Lincoln Memorial. But bearing in mind that it is a DC tour and not a monument tour, I'd say I highly recommend going! |

While most other tours were three hours, I chose this one since it was only two. I was right on that call. The last 15 min of the tour, I was feeling tired and cold. Two hours on Segway means that you have been standing for two hours straight.
The group consisted of men and women aged 40-50s (except for me) and they all had a great time. We were not in DC for a fun tour, but on business. It was a nice relief to the intense meetings we have had during the day. |

The Segway tour offered a quick over view of DC's main sight seeing locations while offering a fun and informational experience offered by their tour guide. I would recommend it to anyone visiting, and friends who live in the DC's to offer something "different" to do. |

We had a wonderful guide, Noah, who not only was very attentive to our varied abilities on the segues, but also gave us a knowledgeable and amusing tour of the city. We had been to DC before but this time we brought our exchange student from Argentina. Noah showed us new sights as well as giving us anecdotes and facts about familiar sites. We were most impressed by him and his ability to mold the tour to fit the group. Plus, the segues were so much fun to ride! After the tour, we missed the speed and efficiency of the design. Yay, New Hampshire inventor! Thank you for the highlight of our visit! |

This was so much fun, the best way to see a lot of sights in 2 hours. Our guide Noah was very knowledgeable and gave very good safety instruction. We even went for lunch to a restaurant he recommended and it was most delicious. The bikes are easy to handle once you get the hang of it, before you set off round the city we had a good practice in the park opposite the segway shop. Just one tip- the weather was cool, and it can get quite breezy round the mall, so much so we had to buy gloves at one of roadside stalls. There are bags on the segs, so take a spare jacket or gloves! I live here and will definately be using this company again when we have visitors again. |

Segways are a great way to get a cosmic overview of DC. We covered a lot of ground in a short period of time and since it was a small group, everyone could keep up and hear the tour guide. They were easy to use and a lot of fun and we wish we'd had them for the entire trip since they made traveling so convenient. However, although the tour guide (Noah) was nice, he was a bit jaded and seemed bored by the experience. I wanted someone who really loved their job and the city to get me really excited about it, but this was not the case. I thought the tour was a little too short and the guide was a little too blase. I would recommend the activity but I would try a competitor. |

I highly recommend one of our leaders, Noah. He was very informative, friendly, and helpful with segue skills. Great fun and we already have recommended it. Not really a "tour" of DC though - yes, I enjoyed going by all the monuments, but not much was said. |

We have been fortunate to have been invited to DC 4 times before, with meetings in the White House, Capitol hill and the Pentagon.
Your tour certainly was a highlight. Keep up the good work.
