| We really enjoyed the tour and learning how to ride the Segway. It is easier than riding a bike, and so much fun! |

| As a long time Washington resident I had never visited so many monuments so easily. The instruction on the Segway was comprehensive and the machine itself a pleasure and fun to use. Both my daughter and I had a most pleasurable trip. I highly recommend this tour. |

| The tour guides were quite knowledgable about the behind the scenes(trivia) info that not everyone has heard. Accomodations were made for non-english speakers. Safety is top priority, trust the segway and trust the guides and you'll be fine, if you feel uncomfortable, slow or stop and call for the guide and they'll be glad to assist you. The segways were a lot of fun to ride, most come for the tour but several come just to ride the segways. Riding down the sidewalks, you can hear people you pass commenting on how they "wanna try that". People WILL come up to you asking about the tour...good thing for the handout pamphlets, otherwise the tour might lag behind schedule. The tour moves right along(and passes the slower tours), you don't even notice that it's been two hours when the group returns to the start location. There's several tour choices to see D.C., I chose the segway tour because of the cost, the freedom from sitting for 2 hours on a tour bus and the fun factor. D.C. has a LOT to it, it'd take several days to explore it all. I recommend the segway tour to people who want to see the highlights of D.C. and want to have some fun doing it. My day in D.C. consisted of: me and my friend walking 5+ hours during the day checking out the insides of museums/buildings, taking a lot of pictures and then 2 hours during the evening riding the segways, seeing the all the buildings lit up and taking some pictures. Well, I guees that's about it for this review, thanks for reading my book >.< |

| It was great! Even though you may look like a bunch of idiots zooming around town on segways you have no idea how much fun it is till you do it. Tor guide was great and the weather was perfect and those machines are incredible. You WILL WANT ONE!!!! |

| We had a great time! Our head tourguide was fabulous! This was one of the most fun and exciting activities I have experienced. Segways are a blast and they are easy to learn to ride. The tour was well done and the leader was knowledgable. I completely recommend to anyone that enjoys exciting activities. |

| The Segway is a little scary at first but after you get to park and practice it is really easy! We are in our 50's and we loved this activity! I would suggest you take the Segway Tour the very first thing when you get to D.C. that way you will be familiar with the sites. I wish I could have taken the "Lost Symbols Tour" they are going to offer. The tour guide was great! I think all ages will love this tour!! Don't miss it! |

| Dear sir/madam,
My friend Chris and I had a wonderful time on the tour. We had two guides: Noah and some other guy (sorry btw!). Noah was very easy going and informative. It was impressive that the two worked together to make sure we were comfortable (e.g. one waiting/guiding at a curb to ensure that things went smooth). The other guy was very nice but didnt deliver his jokes very well. I could tell that he was trying hard but I think it felt "forced" and somehow subtracted something from the experience. Another thing is I wish we could have somehow seen the Lincoln Memorial (or maybe the tidal basin with the famous not-in-bloom cherry blossoms?). It seemed a little weird that it wasn't included.
Finally, I wish there was a discount for groups. I would like to book the tour for my parents and brother when they come out to visit but $70 pp seems borderline expensive. It ALMOST makes be consider just looking into rentals as an alternative to dropping $300 in two hours.
Thank you for providing such a fabulous experience!
Sincerely,
Sarah
PS Noah is cute |

| I had seen several of the points earlier in the week just because of our wanting to view as much as we could in the time we had, but was also appreciative of our guide's insight. I hope I helped her, as well. |
