| This is such a fun tour. The tour guides are so knowledge and fun. They took great care that everybody stayed together as a group and that there were no accidents. This is my second tour and I would most definitely do it again. |

Seemed short, but good overall

| Other Segway tours I've been on have been 4 hrs or more with lunch included. This one was shorter and didn't hit some of the sights such as Fords theatre which was strange since it was the closest attraction to their offices. Overall the guides were knowledgeable and I probably would have never noticed anything lacking had I not been on a Segway tour before. |

| As first-timers to Washington, the Segway tour was a great introduction to the sights and sounds of the city. Both tour leaders were courteous, energetic, and kept the group safe at all crossings. My wife and I had never ridden a Segway before, but the instructions were excellent and everyone was given enough time to practice. The bikes have a zipper pouch in which you could place bottled water, rain gear, etc.
We had a great time.
P.S. The group leaders took pictures for everyone who needed photos. |

| We took the Segway tour during our first trip to DC. I had heard that night tours in DC were particularly memorable, so I reserved an evening tour. The sights, including the White House and Capitol, were wonderful lighted sights at night. Also, there are less crowds and pedestrians to worry about at night. The Segway seems a bit intimidating at first (especially after watching the safety video), but is actually very simple and riders will quickly feel comfortable. A great way to cover lots of ground and see some of the city's best attractions. Even though you won't be walking, note that standing for two hours on a Segway does cause a bit of stiffness/soreness in the legs and feet. Overall, we highly recommend. |

Nice way to see the sights at night!

| Using the Segways was a blast. They were easy to use and so much fun. Also, the tour guide was wonderful, being both entertaining and patient. My friend (a visitor to D.C.) and I, enthusiastically recommend this experience, both for the fun of riding a Segway and getting an introduction to the Mall area. |

Awesome!

| Our guide was great! So glad we did the evening tour because the temperature was cool, the crowds were less, and the lighted monuments were beautiful. Our segway tour was the most memorable activity of a very busy week.. Recommend that you tour early in your visit (rather that the last). Only negative was some of the idiots in our group ("can we stop to shop for a t-shirt"). |
