| I would highly recommend this to anyone going to the DC area. Three in our group had never been to DC before. Your Segway tour provided an overview and helped our group decide on the "must see" places on our 4 day stay. It was also a WHOLE BUNCH OF FUN!!!!! Hope we can come back & do it again someday.
Thanks for the memories...

| The best part about this tour is riding the Segway. We live locally but will bring visitors on this tour because it is a great way to see a lot of the National Mall area in a short amount of time.
It is a little expensive but we think it is worth it. We would recommend going at night as there are fewer pedestrians and the monuments are beautiful when lit up. |

Great way to get an overview of the city sites

| The Segway is a fun way to see DC. They took us on a loop that stopped at many of the important sights. My wife and I took a Segway tour in Atlanta and thought it would be fun to do it in DC, our home town. The only thing I would change is the length of the tour. The Atlanta tour was 3 hours and we heard more about the city since the guide had more time. Our guides could have given the tourist on our tour more information if they had more time. I think tourist would pay for a longer tour as well. |

| So my first Segway tour was a blast and the two guys giving the tour were super nice and it was so easy to hop on and learn to ride in a matter of minutes. My girlfriend has since added a Segway to her Christmas wish list.
I was in DC on business and had only 1 extra day to take in the sights of DC so whatever tour we planned would be the only tour we would have time for. We opted for the Segway tour and took the night tour and it was certainly fun to buzz around DC on the Segways.
The tour itself was just OK. There are limitations on where you can go on a Segway in DC and I suspect this is why we didn't get up close and personal to any of the buildings. It would of been nice for example to actually walk up the stairs of the Capital but we were blocks and blocks away from the Capital and never went near it. We also didn't get to see the Lincoln Memorial at all.. While we saw the Washington Monument again it was from afar we didn't actually get to go up to the monument itself... I would of liked to see a little more time allowed and encouragement to take photos. We did stop at the White House a bit and the Capital Building a bit but those were the only two spots where we had time to get off the Segway's and take photos... The rest of the time we were rushing from spot to spot...
So yes it was super fun to ride the Segway's around DC, but for a "tour" of DC be prepared to be disappointed. If I had it to do over again I would of booked a "proper" DC tour and gave up the novelty of riding the Segway.
For a couple hours of fun riding around DC on a Segway you can't go wrong. But for a "tour" of DC you might want to book another tour that is a little less rushed and more all inclusive where you get to see the sights up close and where you get to see all the sights not just a few here and there. |
