| Have always wanted to see what riding a Segway was like when seeing them at airports and being ridden by security officials around cities. Had no idea how easy it would be to ride one and how much fun it was to see DC from this perspective. The tour guides were extremely nice, very helpful and most of all very patient with all of the riders.
Several friends did not go with us and now regret that they didn't. I look forward to going on another tour with them the next time we are up in DC. From all of the other Segway tours we saw going by that weekend, this outfit seemed to offer the best value and offer the most complete experience by far!! |

| I highly recommend doing the latest tour of the day, as all the monumets are lit up and there are fewer pedestrians on the sidewalk. |

| 3 of us, my son and his wife and I, were the only members of our tour group so we had a personalized tour. We had never riden segways before, but learning is easy and in just a few minutes were were able to steer our way through the DC sidewalks. Our tour guide, a young lady who's name I unfortunately forget, was great--informative and friendly. |

| If you are looking for a comprehensive tour of DC... this is not the tour for you. But if you are looking to have the best time ever just riding this incredible invention.. go for it! Best 65 bucks we ever spent! |

| Our Capitol Segway Washington DC city tour was fantastic. The entire operation from beginning to end was very professionally run, with safety and fun the focus. This is without a doubt the best way to see so much of this great city in a 2 hour tour. We were able to hear our leader/tour guide throughout the event using wireless earpieces. She was very knowledgeable and seemed to be having as much fun as we had.
We had never used Segways before, but after about 5 minutes felt completely comfortable and confident. The Segways are a blast to ride.
Make sure you use this company and not the others that also provide Segway tours. The main reasons are 1)the wireless earpiece to hear the tour guide (we passed a group from another company that doesn't use microphones and earpieces, and their tour guide was shouting to be heard) and 2) this company doesn't use speed limiters on their Segways enabling you to go the full 12.5 MPH that the Segway was designed to go (believe me, you'll enjoy going fast some of the time, it's great fun).
Overall, this tour far exceeded my high expectations and I would recommend it to anyone. One note of caution, the Segway is operated while standing, and this is a two hour tour. We took several breaks during the tour and got off the Segways to stretch our legs. But if you have trouble standing for periods at a time, this may not be for you. Otherwise, have a ball!! |

| I absolutely loved this tour! Segways are very easy to get used to, and in a matter of minutes I was rolling around having the time of my life! The tour guides were very nice and informative, and we saw all the major sights.
I do recommend picking a warm day to go! |

| I highly recommend Capital Segway Tours. The staff was incredibly helpful in the training of the segway use. They made me feel at ease. Also their knowledge of DC history was well grounded and informative !! Awesome group !! |

| Segways are a bit tricky for the first couple minutes, then it's very simple. Staff is helpful and relaxed. One of our best family outings ever. (We have 2 teenagers- they thought it was totally cool) |

| People will look at you and stare in awe..and wish it was them upon this cool piece of technology!!!
Zip around DC effortlessly like a VIP (you and the 12 other strangers you are with) for 2 fun filled hours.
The tour is ok, but the real fun is riding around on the i2 segway
This is one of the top 10 coolest things I have done in my lifetime |

| Our guides were knowledgable, entertaining and helpful (the Segways were great too). They offered a silly, sarcastic insider's view of DC that we did not get from our other tours. They were patient with us as we learned how to use our segs. It was fun relishing in being an idiot tourist for a few hours. Thanks for the MEMORABLE experience. |
