| Segway training and the tour was very easy to understand and fun.
Our guide was knowledgeable of the Segway and the city. I have been recommending this tour to everyone. I would do this tour again in DC and any other city we visit. |

| I found the company on the web and booked over the web too. All very easy to do. I just turned up at their easy to find store and they had my reservation. We had a good introduction on how to ride safely and practiced riding in the store and across the street in the little park before heading off to the first stop: the Whitehouse!
The tour takes in great places and our guide Will looked after everybody right throughout the tour. He is from DC so was very knowledgeable and good humoured.
There was never any rush to get back and end at the tour dead on 5 pm as scheduled. We had a small group so it was a very enjoyable experience and I didn't want to give the degway back!
I would definitely recommend Capital Segway to anyone looking to do this in DC.

| I really wanted to ride a Segway and this provided the perfect opportunity to learn to do that. Instruction is very relaxed, the guys are great and patient with new and inexperienced students like me. The outside practice in the park after initial instructions made me feel very comfortable on the Segway.
Then the tour began! Will, our guide, was great, very knowledgeable, had some great stories to tell about the sights we saw. He was also very funny, which helped since we were listening to him on our headphones for two hours! It was fantastic to whiz along the sidewalks and open plaza areas (especially around the White House) at top speed! I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and the company! It was terribly hot the day I went, which cannot be predicted, but Will made sure the group had plenty of water and breaks because of the heat.
I would highly recommend this tour. |

| It's a pretty special experience to ride segway and sightsee D.C.
Although the tour it self is pretty brief. But the guide is friendy and well known about the city itself. The lesson before we start tour is also good. I like this trip. |

| I really enjoyed the tour. My wife and a family friend joined me on this adventure. I was like you were floating around the city. People would stop and look at our grouup, wishig they were the ones on our magic carpets. I would recommend this to anyone. My son will be visiting the Washington DC next month and I told him he had to do this tour and he lived in the city for six years One fhe highlights of our stay in Washington DC. |

| We had never used a Segway before and were surprised at how much fun it was. Our guide spent a good amount of time going over the features and having us practice. By the time we started out on the tour, we were comfortable on the Segway and had a great time riding on it. The tour itself was great . We loved the whole thing and would definitely recommend it! |

| We saved this activity for the last day, to enjoy with our 17 yr. old son. The guide was fun and full of facts, and I loved that we could get so "up close" to the buildings on the tour. Riding the Segways was fun and easy, and we got a lot of attention from the other walking tourists. We loved it! |

Awesome!

| My 16 year old son and I had an unbelievable tour of Washington on the Segway. Our guide, Aaron, was very informed and really made the tour enjoyabel. Riding the segway was great fun, and every where we went people were asking where can they rent them.
I plan on doing the tour again with my wife and daughter - they were so jealous when they saw the video I shot. |

Great end to a wonderful weekend getaway!

| My brother and I attended a wedding in the area, and we decided to cram in some sightseeing. We are SO glad we did. We had a ball, and our Facebook photos are getting rave reviews! |
