| My wife and I are DC natives and did the tour as an fun wedding anniversary activity. It exceeded our expectations in every way. We did the 7pm tour so it was cooler, the sidewalks were clearer, and many buildings and sites showed off their night-time lighting. Our guide Josh? Jonah? (he told us his name, we forgot it) was excellent as well. But while DC is a beautiful city on any day and even more so at night, the real hit of our tour was the Segway itself. It takes a few minutes (literally only a few) to get one's Segway legs but once you do it becomes an extension of your body and is way fun to ride. There is simply nothing not to love about this tour. Highly recommend. |

| It is so much fun and much better than being stuck on a bus, loading and unloading to go around the city. The segway frees you to go on sidewalks and closed off roads. And you can get a great guided tour along the way. |

| My uncle, aunt and cousins from overseas were in town for just one day, and I figured a segway tour of DC's main sights/attractions would be a nifty and novel way to optimise their limited time and leave them with lasting memories not just of DC but riding the segway as well. We were not disappointed. The guides were professional and safety-minded, and instructions on how to ride were very clear (we were all first-time riders). It was an enjoyable almost-two-hour experience which I would have been happy to award the full 5 stars had our guide (we were in a smaller group with one guide) been a little bit more enthusiastic (he appeared plain bored at times) and had not rushed us back to the office from the White House (which didn't make sense since the other group which left in the opposite direction and whose paths we crossed at the Smithsonian Castle) were no where in sight even after we had returned the segways and helmets/headsets and were figuring out what to do next outside the Cap Segway office. |

| This was the first thing we did when we arrived in DC. Actually, we checked into the hotel and collapsed from our long flight, but the very next morning we header over via the Metro. We were greeted in a very friendly manner and thoroughly enjoyed the tour as well as the guides. The price was much more economical than I had expected. This is a great way to see the local sites and get a "lay of the land", so you can return with a familiarity to sites you would like to spend more time at. We definitely recommend this company and look forward to doing it again when we return. I have added this to MySpace and FaceBook, so all my friends can take advantage of it as well. |

| Riding a Segway was a blast. Our tour guide, Karen was wonderful, chatty, friendly, and knowledgeable.
I wanted the tour to last longer. I wonder if there is a way to 'park' your Segway and enter a tour site. I also would have appreciated headsets, so I could hear Karen as we zipped through the National Mall. |

| My daughter and I totally enjoyed the tour. The guides were very friendly and knowledgeable. The introduction and lesson to use the Segway were very well organized; in no time we were zapping around with ease. It was a great way to see Washington. My only complaint is that there isn't a longer tour going to more sites. |
