Great tour

Great tour, nice photo ops. Great if you only have 2-4 hours to see the sights of W.DC.

Do Something Different !!
Sun, Aug 10, 08   3:30 PM JaniceF Male 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
Good fun and very worth while doing. We got to see lots of the sights, and with a humorous commentary from our 2 guides. We were surprised at how easy the Segway was to use, and by the end of the tour we were experts !! okay, maybe not experts but we sure did enjoy the experience. This something everyone should do at least once, don't be shy! Next time I visit Washington DC, I'll be sure to do it again. Mark - from the original Washington ENGLAND

Great experience We really enjoyed this trip. My only problem is figuring out the reason I need a Segway at home.

Great Fun but could be better organized
Sun, Aug 10, 08   12:30 PM baconrobot Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
It was a great trip and a lot of fun but I think that time could be better divided if the groups were smaller. I feel that some people spent a lot of time waiting for others to catch up and others spent a lot of time catching up. It seemed like the group could easily be divided into two more comfortable groups and perhaps make all customers happier. That said, I would definitely recommend this tour to people I know visiting DC. Thanks.

I loved being on the segways. I've seen DC before so it wasn't as much about seeing the sights. I'd definitely recommend it and maybe try it again.

Capital Segway

Totally fun. Always wanted to run a Segway. Washington DC tour made it so much better. Even the spouse who has arthritis in her knees loved it. Got good info from tour guide. Already recommended to friends and co-workers. Best part was doing donuts in front of the White House. Scariest part was the safety video, the little stick figure guy dies horribly, but not to worry, we were fine! Do it!

Segways are fun!
Fri, Aug 8, 08   9:30 PM jscarle Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
Initally I was concerned about the learning curve for the Segway and also if my wife would be as enthusiastic as I was to try this 'new' way of touring a city - versus taking a bus / tram / trolley (or even the highly rated walking) tour. My wife took to the Segway right away and really seemed to enjoy zipping around. I requested a 'night' trip as I was keen to see the sights lit up and also to avoid the crowds and the company was very helpful in arranging that. I was concerned that the Segway's didn't have headlights (we were provided rear flashing bicycle lights), but I had no trouble navigating even in the darkest spots. The weather was perfect and the skies clear. One lady in our party came off her Segway crossing the first street, but bravely soldiered on and overcame her initial reluctance. The guide was friendly but the tour information on the sites was pretty sketchy. We'd have liked to have more historical detail. I have since overheard the City Segway tour guide and can see why they are rated #1 by tripadvisor.com versus these guys at #26. The City Segway tour is longer too, for the same price, so perhaps that is why they can provide so much more information. In summary, although expensive I can highly recommend the experience. It is definitely worth paying the extra to take a Segway. I was hesitant but I now realize it's not as much an expensive tour as a fun adventure. Our Segways were the latest and in good condition and not speed limited. No technical issues during the tour. Recommended!

Worth the money
Fri, Aug 8, 08   9:30 PM duffmobile Male 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
My wife and I decided to take a segway tour to see the city. She wanted to do an afternoon adventure but I convinced her to take the late night tour. It's way better to do the late night tour for many reasons. There is little to no pedestrian and vehicle traffic so you can zip about as fast as you want. Our tour guide, Adam, was awesome and very helpful. We got to see the city in less than 2 hours and the weather was perfect. It was our first time riding a Segway and I can't wait until I do it again. I highly recommend this as the number one thing to do in DC.

This was just the BEST way to see DC! Our guides were terrific and very knowledgeable. Booked the 6:30 in the evening tour and the weather was perfect. Couldn't have had a better time. Great photo opportunities! Have recommended it to everyone!

Outstanding way to see the city, but expensive

This is by far the best way to see a city, way better than tour busses. However; it is overpriced. The Segways are fun and easy to use.

Most amazing!

Segways offer an amazing sensation of locomotion--nothing like it! I was nervous at first but got the hang of it and really enjoyed it. The guide was kind and supportive through my initial fear--he was terrific. My teenage nephew thinks that I am the coolest aunt, for this experience. One caution: Be aware that Segways aren't permitted on Park Service territory, so you won't be seeing the monuments up close. However, the tour does cover a lot of ground, including Capitol Hill, and it is well worth it!

Highlight of my trip

This was a very unique way to see Washington DC. The Segways were fun and a great way to get around town. You were able to see most of the big attractions, get some pictures and learn about them. This is a great way to start your trip. You get a sense for the city and then can plan on which attractions you want to see more in depth later on.

a must if this is your first or 21st trip!

I've been to DC many times and was looking for a unique experience to see the sights and share something special with my Dad. He was a little timid at first, but our tour guides were really informative and took as much time as needed to show you how to properly use the Segway until both you and they were comfortable with your skills. I definitely recommend the evening tour as the temperature was nicer, you had less pedestrians to share the sidewalks with allowing you to go up to the max speed and play around on the segways, and DC is so beautiful at this time of night! My Dad and I see this as the highlight of our trip and can't stop telling family and friends about the wonderful time we had! We even have some great pictures to show everyone as our tour guide Max was so kind as to take our picture anytime we asked. Capital Segway is definitely the way to see the city!

The Best Way to See the City
Tue, Aug 5, 08   12:30 PM norellij Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
This is definitely the best way to see the city. I just moved to DC and my sister came to visit so we did the Segway Tour. We had so much fun. The tour guides were great, they really knew their stuff and were entertaining too!
