| The only thing I would change is a scheduled stop at an ice cream or smoothie place allowing people to get off for a few minutes.
Your literature did state that there would not be food, but coming after work it's hard to eat first.
Loved the little tidbits that were added. |

| Living in the area, I've seen people riding segways often and have always said that I'd like to try it. I have mentioned it to my husband several times and he always seemed less than willing so I thought I'd never have the opportunity. Imagine my delight when my 85 year old father mentioned to me that he'd like to try it. That's all I needed!!! I made the reservations .
I've ridden a unicycle, bicycle, and motorcycle, so I thought - this will be no problem! Well, when told to get on and try it, my knees seemed to havea whole other idea. It was then I realized that I was a little more excited (scared) than I had expected. I wobbled around the store for a while thinking I can't believe I'm having trouble with this. I looked around at the others in my group and was perplexed to find no one else was struggling at all. And then we moved on to the park ACROSS THE STREET - All I could think was this is something I wanted to do???? This is fun??? Cross the street??? I'm gonna DIE!!! Well, I made it across the street with a lot of coaching from my guide "Karen" (Thanks for the patience, many pep talks and encouragement, Karen). I made several wobbly runs around the park with more encouragement from my father and a couple of members of the group. Finally, I realized I was having fun and relaxed a little and got MUCH better. By the time the tour was really under way, I truly had the hang of it. My father took to it right off and there is no doubt in my mind that before long, he will own one. (That will be great because then I can ride to my heart's content.).
I can honestly say that we had a ball. I grinned and talked about this ride for DAYS!!! I am planning on going back again with some co-workers and friends. The best advice I can give anyone reading this is: If you don't take to it immediately, be patient! You will get it and you will have a blast!!! |

| What we liked best about the tour was that we could listen to the tour guide for those items we were most interested, but could wander around within reason along the way. Everybody was doing their own thing, and it was not a problem. Not one person had any trouble getting used to the Segways. In fact, we intend to do this tour the next time friends or relatives come to town - we've done the various museums to death! |

| We loved it. Wish I could buy one of these. After two or three minutes, you completely master how to ride one. |

| Good tour, the absolute best way to see a small chunk of the city. Wished it was longer. |

I can't think of any reason not to try a Segway!

| When offered the opportunity to try something you've never done before, why pass it up? This was a great exciting experience and well worth the small investment in time and money. The most amazing thing is how fast the instructors had us out the door and enjoying the ride on our own. They obviously had more confidence in us than we had in ourselves. I was amazed at how fast everyone just 'caught on'!
The instructors were knowledgeable about the sites we visited and their presentations were simple and to the point. I lost count of the number of envious pedestrians that said "I wish I could do that! " ... We did!

| I got this for my dad for his birthday, and it was a fantastic present! The Segways were tons of fun to play around on, and the tour guides gave an excellent tour of the city! I whole-heartedly recommend this to anyone! |
