| I have also toured with city segway and their tour guide seemed a little more enthusiastic and informative as well as personable.
Please don't assume that we don't care what you have to say-It is a tour and it is expected that the participants be told useful and unique information. I am not sure if, when you said you were bulls******, you were just kidding or not, so I'm not sure what to believe. Just because people may not have questions doesn't necessarily mean they are not listening. |

| This is a really fun activity even if you live in the metro area. The segways were easy to use and the tour guide was very friendly. The tour seems to last just the right amount time (you get a litte tired standing for 2 hours). The tour guide does a good job of narrating the sites that you get to see, but if you are looking for covering a large amount of ground in a lot of detail then opt for a different type of tour. However, if you are looking for a unique and fun activity this is tour for you!! |

| The machine is a lot of fun and very easy to master. The tour itself is interesting and unusual (even for this Washingtonian, I learned a lot), and our tour guide Karen was fantastic! A real pleasure to spend two hours with.
It's a very unusual way to spend a morning in the nation's capital, which I can heartily recommend. |

| I've wanted to try a Segway for a longtime and this seemed like the way to do it. It's a little pricey, but reasonable for a one-time experience. The tour is well-organized and the tour guides were extremely professional and knowledgeable. It doesn't take an athelete or even someone physically-inclined to quickly get comfortable on these machines. With a short tutorial and training session we were on our way around the city. I was concerned about the radio intercoms between the guides and followers, but this system worked flawlessly. The whole thing seemed well-thought out and organized. Our tour was two-hours and that was a good length for this - remember, you're standing up the whole time.
This was an outstanding way to see DC and I'd recommend it to anyone. |

| Took the Segway tour of Paris in 2007. Was as delighted with the Washington tour!
Alan and Aaron were A+ tour guides. |

| The staff at the Segway store put us seniors (63-74) at ease with their thorough training before practice in the adjacent park. By the time the tour ended we were cruising comfortably at near max speed on the DC streets.
My wife complained that her helmet smelled like dirty hair, and her headset stopped working during the last half hour of the tour. On this warm September day I appreciated the provision of a chilled bottle of water.
Scott, our guide, led our group of six with enthusiasm and humor. The stops were well timed. Scott provided good info about the sites and offered to take our pictures several times during this memorable excursion. Recreational bikers all, we agreed that this was the most fun we'd had in a long time. |

| We had family coming in to visit us from New York. The tour was magnificent. The Segways were fun and easy to use. It made their visit special. My sister-in-law was recommending it to people while she was still on the tour. The guide and the manager were especially personable and helpful. I cannot recommend this enough, our family has already insisted we do it again on their next visit - and this is the group we have taken hot air balloning and white water rafting..... |

| I took my mother on this tour for her 80th birthday. We had such an amazing time and our guide (Will) was fantastic. I would highly recommended this tour to people of all ages. We took this tour at night which I think added to the enjoyment of the tour. D.C. at night is so beautiful and there are a lot less people on the streets and sidewalks. |

| Tour goes on for the full two hours, the tour guides are knowledgeable and they take safety seriously. Learned many new facts about Washington, D.C., the tour started on time, and I would definitely recommend Capital Segway. |
