The Segway tour in Washington DC was excellent. I was nervous at first since I had never been on a Segway before, but it was as easy as pie. It was one of the best experiences I have ever had. I would definitely recommend this for others. |

We had good machines, good instruction, good tour guide. I have to be honest, I wish there were more built in fun time to ride the Segways after we got the hang of them, possibly near the end of the tour. |

We enjoyed the segaway ride but the tour was not very informative. The guide was not very descriptive about the points we visited. Also, the earphones did not work well. |

I admit it.... I was a little scared at first to get on a segway, but once I got on and tested it, I was hooked. We had a great guide in Jamey and I got to see Washington, DC from a whole new perspective. This is one great tour! |

I'd highly recommend this tour! We had a group of 5 friends, some adventuresome and some not, and we all had a great time. The tour guides were great and we covered more distance and saw more of DC than we would have been able to on foot, and of course it was more fun than in a car or bus. We felt safe and just loved it! |

16 Year-old Birthday Smash

We brought 7, highly energetic, 16 year-old guys to DC to do a segway tour to celebrate our son's birthday. We thought the tour might be something out-of-the-ordinary and might just spark interest in a bunch of hard-to-please 16 year-olds. Well, the tour did not disappoint. It was an absolute blast and very successful. Our tour guide, Tyler, paced the tour to the abilities of the group and we zoomed through DC without any problems and were able to see more than Tyler originally thought. Tyler was fantastic, respectfully entertaining and handled the group perfectly. We highly endorse and recommend the tour and Tyler! We will definitely find a reason to do this again. |

Tyler, our tour guide and Segway instructor, was knowledgeable, enthusiastic and personable. Our tour covered some great locations, with some good travel to enjoy the Segway in between the stops. I strongly recommend this tour for two reasons: the orientation to the DC area and some great sights, but just as much for the fun experience on a Segway. |

My parents were visiting from Missouri. My dad's knees were hurting from all the walking earlier in the week and my mom had twisted her ankle 2 days before they came to visit. both of them were totally able to stand for the 2 hours of the Segway tour with very little problem. After the practice in Frankline Park and 10 min into the tour, they were both talking about how much fun it was and how they wish they had done this earlier in the week instead of walking all over the place.
The tour itself was excellent. Austin, our guide was incredibly knowledgable and more than accomodating when it came to snaping pictures for us.
I liked that this tour included the earpieces so we could hear what was coming up next and never let us feel disconnected from the group.
HIGHLY Recommended! I will be taking my future visitors on this tour... esp. since the mid-week tours are only $65 and much less crowded (we only had 7 people in our group). |

Upon arrival, we found that only my mother and I had registered for the night tour. Rather than canceling and rescheduling because the group was too small, Capital Segway kindly offered to continue the tour - just the two of us. Our guide was extremely patient, taking 30-40 minutes to make sure that we were both safe and comfortable on the Segway. Our guide was also very accomodating as far as the length of the tour - cutting things a little short when requested- as my mother sometimes tires easily due to diabetes. The content of the tour itself was solid. The guide was knowledgable, with a good sense of humor. The segways seemed well maintained. The overall atmosphere was friendly and low pressure, with remarkably patient personel, making for a fun and memorable experience. |
