| Last year we took a Segway tour while on vacation in San Francisco, so we wanted to share the fun with our family in the DC area. The Capital Segway tour was the absolute best - our group of five all had a great time riding the new I2 Segways. Our tour guide was Will - he did a great job and we had a blast! |

| Not only is the Segway a wonderful ride, the guides really know their stuff. They instructed us, took us somewhere that we could practise and get comfortable and then began the tour.
Very knowledgable about the sites and had interesting stories about each of them. The tour was a bit over two hours. It's one of those things you need to do more than once because you'll see something new each time.
Highly recommended! |

| I had a wonderful time on my segway tour. Our guide was very knowledgable. I highly recommend this as an easy way to see a lot of the city - especially if you have a limited amount of time or a short attention you should try it. The only downside was that my knees started bugging me toward the end because you are essentially standing for several hours |

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!

| Hi - We decided to take the Segway Tour since our nephew was visiting from Tennessee. I was quite nervous because I wasn't sure I could ride the thing, but it was not a problem at all. My husband and nephew had a wonderful time, and we could hardly get my newphew (who is 16) off the Segway when we returned to I Street. Our guide was excellent and well informed. He was constantly on the alert for problems we might be having, or that might come at us from some of the strange people we met, especially outside the White House. Many people were simply curious about the Segway. I must say that I didn't pay enough attention to the tour itself because I was so focused on the ride. |

| I've wanted to ride a Segway since they were first introduced, so I was thrilled to find that one could tour DC on one! The folks at Capital Segway were very helpful and professional. Nice balance between traditional tour-guide information and just the general fun of zipping around on a Segway. If you're considering it, DO it. You'll be nervous for about 20 seconds; an hour later you'll be telling tourists what a great time you're having! |

| The Segway tour is a great way to get oriented to the city and have fun riding a segway. It is tough to learn a lot as you cannot hear the tour guide as you are 'segwaying' through. They should consider adding a microphone to the tour guide that allows him to talk to you from the front. Other than that the tour was great. We loved riding the segways and they were easy to use. |
