This tour was awesome. The 2 guides were very charismatic and helpful. They take you on a very long tour that covers a large portion of dc with breaks for site seeing and will take photos for you. Would do again just because of how much fun it was. Went on the late evening tour and it took about 2 and a half hours, but was definitely worth it. |

I've been a visitor and now a resident of the area. Over the past few months I've been on a number of tours around town with family and friends. The Segway was the MOST fun I've had on any of these tours! Luckily, my friend and I had the tour guide (Max) all to ourselves, so the three of us could really get the most of our time, and keep moving without delay. |

My wife and I live in Maryland, about a 45 minute trip into downtown DC. We don't go into DC a lot, so we thought it was finally time to take a tour. The idea of riding a Segway had always fascinated us, so decided this was the most exciting way to tour the city. Well, we had the time of our lives!!. We got to see the outside of many of the major attractions, stopped at the Nat'l Mall for 20 minutes for a hot dog and rest before finishing the tour. Riding the Segway was a lot easier than I thought. A 5-10 minute instruction by the tour group was more than adequate. After 10 minutes riding it, it's already second nature; very intuitive. The tour guides (2) give you the tour information using individual ear plugs during the 2 hour tour. Sound quality is just OK, but who cares because riding those Segways is a absolute blast!!! |

The whole experience was excellent. The company was easy to deal with. We got there 40 minutes early and got a quick tutorial on the Segway before the official training. No surprises. Easy to learn. The Segways were fun. The tour was a good overview of the main sites around the Capital. 2 hours was a good length. The tour guides kept control while seeming to be flexible and easy o get along with. No issues. No negatives. Good value. i would do it again without question. |

After a short orientation to the segway, we headed out for some hands on practice. I was a little anxious about the adventure, but it was easier than I had thought. We had a great guide in Chris and the earphone made the ride easier to maneuver because he could talk to us as we were wheeling along streets and sidwalks guiding us to avoid dangers or preparing us for upcoming maneuvers.
I recommend this tour 100%. |

Evening tour is awesome. Because we had a small group 6 we were able to tour additional areas. Liked the tour so much I went back on Thursday for another tour. I have been to DC 4 times and this was one of the most enjoyable activities I did. Segways are a gas and loads of fun |

John & Andrew were great teachers & guides. However, less creative commentary & more historical accuracy would be 1 way to seriously improve the tour (sorry Andrew). The Segways that tilt when accelerating seemed to our party of 5 to be less fun & less safe than the kind that remain flat at all times. All of us found the tilt disconcerting, & it was part of a near accident. Thanks to John & Andrew for a great tour overall, & especially to Andrew for saving our Maddie when she panicked & almost went into traffic. |
