| This was the third segway tour for myself and the first for my young adult daughter. I have never had a bad experience with any of the tours in San Francisco, Gettysburg and now in Washington D. C. Segway is a fun, relaxing way to see many sights not possible on foot or by personal vehicle.
The staff and tour guides are very patient in making sure each person is comfortable, trained in its use and safe. They are very knowledgable in the history of the area. Just a very fun and informative adventure. |

Enjoyed very much. Would do it again.

| The tour using Segways was great. We totally enjoyed it! But… I felt that there could have been additional sites or buildings included in the tour such as the Lincoln Memorial. Our only complaint is regarding our tour guide. We were with a young couple from the Philippines and our guide didn’t really explain things in a way they would understand the significance of some of the things we were seeing. For example, when talking about Ford’s Theater, he didn’t make it all clear what the significance of the theater was or even mention who was assassinated there. I think he just assumed we all knew. The other couple didn’t know. Another problem we had was that the guide wore his headset/microphone around his neck rather than on his head so when he turned his head to the side, away from his mic, we weren’t able to hear what he was saying. We told him more than once about that problem but he didn’t correct it. Again, overall, we really enjoyed the Segways and tour and would even do it again. |

| We really enjoyed the tour, but suggest the guide be more correct with facts...and engaging .... there is so much history here!!
Our feet got hot .... and legs tried after two hours....maybe more rest stops during the tour to discuss the sites....
Overall... a wonderful experience!!! Will for sure recommend! |

| Seeing DC on a Segway is very worthwhile and highly recommended.
Tour leader was personable, enthusiastic and protected the safety of participants.
The downside is that this particular leader was somewhat overly opinionated and did not distinguish between his personal preferences and those of others.. e.g., he recommended traditional art exhibits over modern because traditional seemed to be his preference. The content of the tour was quite basic with too few anecdotal references. |

| The segways were surprisingly easy to use and the guides were excellent. This was much more fun than riding a tour bus. My hard to impress nephew tunred to me and said that this was one of the coolest things he had ever done. |
