Ny husband and I really enjoyed the segway tour. It was easy to learn how to ride them and a fun way to do some sightseeing. The tour guide was very good.

We recently took the 2 hour Segway tour and it could not have been more enjoyable. It was fun to whisk through the streets with short narratives about many of the interesting landmarks of Washington DC. Thankfully absent were long and boring narratives. The tour guides gave us just enough information to keep it interesting while leaving us to decide which places we'd like to explore more in depth and on our own. Looking forward to taking other Segway tours in other cities. A lot of fun; don't hesitate just book it!

Awesome way to see the city!

I have lived in DC for 3 years, and love having visitors - however; there are only so many times you can walk through the monuments before you want to poke your eyes out. Thanks Steve for recommending your company - my friend Ellen & I had an AWESOME time! SO MUCH FUN! The only thing that would have been cooler is if we could have seen the Lincoln, Vietnam, Korean memorials up close... not sure if there are places that the segways are allowed through that region though?!

We enjoyed our tour so much last year that we took one again this year with some friends. Great training, great experience. My only complaint would be that the 2 hour tour was actually more like 1 hour 40 minutes. Not a huge deal, but for $80 a person, a full 2 hours would haven been appreciated. In spite of that, we'd to it again in a heartbeat.

The Capitol Segway tour is a great way to get an "overview" of most of the major Capitol landmarks. It's an overview since you don't get to go inside anything, for obvious reasons, and some of the lesser landmarks you just cruise passed. Still the guide was well informed and able to field any question anyone in our group asked. Learning to operate the Segway was surprisingly easy and once mastered was really fun. One minor caution: wear comforable shoes, even though you're "just standing there" your feet get tired after a while.

Riding on the Segway itself was very enjoyable! This was our first experience with it. I would totally recommend it, especially if this is your first time!

A Must when visiting DC

If I could suggest doing only one thing while in DC it would be taking a segway tour for sure! At first my fiance and I were apprehensive about doing the tour but it was definitely worth it. You not only get to have fun cruising around DC on the segways but you get to see the major sites. This was the first thing we did when we got to DC and was extremely beneficial for us because we were able to get a bearing of our surroundings, which made it so much easier getting around the rest of our trip. The tour guides make the trip fun and definitely know their stuff. The segways are so easy to drive and maneuver. At first it was rocky but the guys make sure you are comfortable on them before you take off on the tour. I definitely plan to tell everyone to take this tour if they are going to DC and I plan to take it again the next time I head to DC!

We enjoyed it very much. The tour guide was very helpful and professional. I only wish that I had known about this tour when I was in Washington with my granddaughter.

I'm 48 and pretty laid back, but when I found this opportunity, I jumped at it! My family and I had a GREAT time with Andy, our tour guide, and the Segways. What a great way to get a quick overview of DC and figure out where you want spend limited tourist time. The machines are very quick and easy to learn and a lot of fun to ride. Andy's sense of humor and knowledge made the trip seem way too short. I would recommend this excursion to any one of any age!
