Montarse en una Segway y poder comenzar a disfrutarla a los 30 segundos de estar encima es fantastico, y luego tener hora y media para disfrutar a Washington, con un excelente guia, con los datos precisos, es una esperiencia fantástica.
Y además, mucho mejor que hacerlo sentado en un bus donde se corre el riesgo de quedarse dormido!!!
Un gran tour para toda la familia y a un excelente precio.

Although the price is not optimal, the experience of riding a segway is definitely a must. The learning curve is extremely gentle, and once you get the hang of leaning in the direction you want to move in you will be able to navigate very easily. Something that needs to be tried at least once. |

We did the tour in September with our college kids and then again last weekend with friends. The first trip was during the day and the second was a night time tour. Both trips were great. We probably enjoyed the night time trip a little better of the two - fewer tourists on the sidewalk and the tour was a slightly different route though this might vary tour to tour. All in all, a great trip!
We wouldn't mind if there was ALSO a tour emphasizing riding around more and to different places with fewer history/sightseeing stops/briefings. The stops are informative, but we've already gone on the tour twice AND we live here, so a tour emphasizing riding around to different places would be fun. |

This is a great activity for local and visitor alike. The tour and Segway guides give a full and comprehensive tutorial and everyone in our group felt comfortable tooling around DC within minutes. In fact, all had a great time and the age range was from teenager to 60+. The tour passes by and stops by some of DC's main sights and there is a pause for photo ops. I would recommend this tour for everyone! Good value for the buck. |

Tour guides less than impressive

Although the segways were fun, the tour guides were dull, unenergetic, and apparently disinterested in what they were doing. I will reccomend a segway tour to friends, however I will suggest they they use a competitior of Cap Segway because I am confident that their tour guides are better than the ones we had. |

The segway tour of Washington, D.C. was an amazing experience. It was the first time my friend and I had been on a segway, which is a unique and fun way of seeing the city in 2 hours - we covered a lot of ground! Our tour guide Antonio was a good instructor and very patient as we learned to maneuver around on the machine. He was a very knowledgable guide, giving us great details on the monuments and sights, while also adding humor. He also encouraged us to enjoy the segway in open spaces. I highly recommend this in D.C., or any other city where you can find Capital Segway. |

The Segway Tour of Washington was absolutely the most fun I've ever had on a guided tour. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and funny. He made the experience a lot of fun. I felt perfectly at ease on the Segway after only a few minutes. I would recommend the tour for anyone who enjoys something a little different than the usual bus tours. |

The principal benefit is getting to ride the Segways. This was my first time on the DC mall, so we got the benefit of a very general tour, and got a feel for where things were. |

From the friendly greeting upon entering the door, Noah, our tour guide for the group of 10 Segways was a positive and helpful contributor to a full exposure of major city highlights. The safety concerns, trial run on the equipment, and close watch, provided a self-confidence. This allowed time to enjoy the many sidewalk level views knowing the controls. The D.C. Segway tour is highly recommended. |
