| Although the segways were fun, the tour guides were dull, unenergetic, and apparently disinterested in what they were doing. I will reccomend a segway tour to friends, however I will suggest they they use a competitior of Cap Segway because I am confident that their tour guides are better than the ones we had. |

| From the friendly greeting upon entering the door, Noah, our tour guide for the group of 10 Segways was a positive and helpful contributor to a full exposure of major city highlights. The safety concerns, trial run on the equipment, and close watch, provided a self-confidence. This allowed time to enjoy the many sidewalk level views knowing the controls. The D.C. Segway tour is highly recommended. |

| Loved the tour and Segways. I live in the city and already knew the tourist spots, but this was the first time anyone in my group had ever been on a Segway. We all had a great time and will recommend this tour to others. A suggestion: have a longer tour that goes in front of the Smithsonian museums, instead of behind them. Another local Segway company does a tour with one more hour. Some additional free time at the end of the tour would have been nice, too. We had a great time, highly recommend this for others, and will most likely do this again ourselves! |

| My wife and I live in the metro area and she has been asking me for weeks about taking the tour. We finally decided to go and we enjoyed it immensely. This was site seeing at its best. |

| My husband and I really enjoyed our Segway ride. We had a great staff person. It was only the two of us so we went at a nice pace, saw a lot, and got a lot out of the running commentary, even thought we have lived in the DC area for 14 years. We have recommended Segway tours to many of our friends and hope to go again some time. |

| We were up on the Segways in the showroom no problem, spent a few minutes outside in the park really getting the feel of the machine, and then it was off to see the monuments. The tour was terriffic. Amazed at how easily we fit in with pedestrians. The only downside was some slight aching of muscles in the back of both legs below the calves and above the ankles of one person of two (male). That went away after a few days and I would certainly jump back on a Segway the next chance I get. |

| Although it may seem scary at first, our guides instructed us and allowed us to practice before the tour started...It was surprisingly easy to learn and by the end of the tour we didn't want it to end...You'll amaze yourself how good you'll be after the 2 hours. If you're thinking about this at all...do it! You won't regret it. |

| Riding the Segway is like a cross between horseback riding, skiing, and riding a broomstick. It brought back the sensation of the first time I learned to ride a bicycle. |

| When I first suggested a Segway tour, several of my friends and family laughed at me and said how dorky I would look out there in DC, riding a Segway with a helmet on...the helmet seemed to be a big part of the dorkiness. :) But four of us were able to arrange a date and donned the helmets, hitting the streets of our nation's capital on the same machine George Bush fell off of several years ago. This concerned me because I know George Bush is fairly athletic and I am definitely not. Although all the instructions were daunting, once we got on the Segways, I felt more comfortable, although it definitely took me longer to build up speed on the sidewalks with the many obstacles in our path.
It was the most beautiful September evening and we could not stop smiling and laughing. We cruised past the White House, Capitol, Washington Monument, various museums, and pretty soon I felt like a pro! I have already recommended this tour to practically everyone I meet, and I am looking forward to doing it again someday. It is absolutely worth the money, and the perfect way to start an evening in DC! |
