| If you are wanting to see all of the best sites around Washington D.C. , this is the best way to get it all in a short amount of time. Not to mention the segway's are so fun to get around on. Do it, you will love it!!! |

| Having walked around Washington a few times, it was great to be able to see so many different sites so quickly. It was also a very good excuse to take a Segway ride. The instructors/tour guides were very friendly, professional, and helpful. I would recommend this tour even to someone who has seen the sites of DC a couple times. It's probably not the best way to get an in depth history tour just because of the format, but it's great to see a lot in a short amount of time. |

| This is a happy, fun, thing to do. Rolling/floating along on the sidewalk is a light hearted feeling. Actually it is joyful. I think anyone who can physically stand for lengths of time and balance would enjoy the Segway tour. However I would suggest offering 2 different time frames for the tour - with 2 different price levels. I very much wanted to try the Segway, but I wear a brace on my knee. It is not possible for me to stand in one position for 2 hours. For me, I would prefer a one hour tour. Still I did sign up and go, because I just wanted to see for myself. Initially, it requires a short training time to get used to the way the Segway steers -- side to side rather than turning the handles and pressure from your toes to go forward and pressure on your heels to stop. The tour guides were informative about the White House and the other buildings and monuments we passed or paused to see. There was a guide in the front of the group and a guide in the back of the group. When I did need to end my tour at one hour, the guide was very gracious. She rode with me back to the start without any hesitation or disgruntled comments. She was very cheerful and made it clear that whatever I wanted to do -- she was totally happy to make happen. I recommend this activity. |

| This is a great way to see the major sights in Washington DC and have fun riding a new generation Segway at the same time. Booking the tour is easy; instruction and practice for safe riding is provided before the tour starts; and the tour guides are friendly and always there to help. There are age and weight limits, so check before you go. |

| The most important aspect of CapSegway for us was the12.5 mph max. 6 mph would have sucked. With all the sights to see, the segway experience itself was the focus of my attention!! |

| If you're a history buff, this is NOT the tour for you. But if you've seen segways on the street and wondered how they worked, this is a practical and fun way to tool around Washington DC and see the major sites on the National Mall. The guide was knowledgable and stopped for the best photo ops. |

| My husband and I came from Montreal, Canada to visit Washington. On our first night we saw some people doing a tour on a Segway. I told my husband: "We really need to do it". He found that site on internet and the following day we did the tour at 3:30pm. We were alone with the guide (I think her name was Erika). It was more than what we were expecting. Everybody should do this at least once in their life. For sure I will do it again. This was the better city tour that I never did in my life. Thanks for that wonderful experience.
