A Must for First-timers to DC
Sat, Jun 14, 08   3:30 PM jferriss Male 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Excellent way to see the city, especially if you need to get a lay of the land. Took my 55 year-old mom, who was reluctant at first, but a pro in 5-minutes. The staff is helpful and friendly. Our tour was cut-short due to severe weather, but we all got rain-checks -- which will be put to use very soon!

Second time doing this tour and as the saying goes the more you do it the better it gets! I would highly recomend this tour, the guides are great and it is the best way to see the sites quickly and have a blast doing it.

Easier than I thought

As we were shown how to manuever the Segway, I thought, I'll never be able to do this. But it was much easier to control than it looked, and especially because I used to ski, it was easy to flex my knees and use my feet to control direction and speed. Really fun and although 2 hours of standing on the Segway was a long time, it's easy to step off and take a break whenever necessary. I loved it and recommend it highly. My 14-year-old grandson enjoyed it as much as I did and learned how to use it quickly.

Well worth it

Having never been to Washinton, DC, I had no idea how many interesting sites there were and how far apart they are. The Segway Tour was a great way to see a lot and have fun. It was easier to operate the Segway than I expected and our guide did a great job of taking us through all of the safety issues prior to the tour. It was a great experience!

el segway tour vale mucho la pena

El segway tour fue muy divertido y valio la pena totalmente. Consegui este tour como regalo de cumpleanos para mi prima, que vino a visitarme desde San Francisco. Definitivamente fue la manera mas sencilla y divertida para conocer la ciudad. No hay necesidad de caminar en el sol hasta cansarse mientras visita el National Mall. Mi prima y yo quedamos muy contentas con esta experiencia y estamos de acuerdo que fue el mejor regalo de cumpleanos.

Great experience.

This is a wonderful way to see a lot of the city in a short amount of time. Walking that far would take at least half a day, and riding a tour bus is not as much fun. The Segway is the star of the tour. Most people have not had the opportunity to ride one, and it is an exhilarating experience! Would recommend this to anyone who is agile. The tour guides were young, enthusiastic and knowledgeable.

Segway great! Guides not.
Wed, Jun 11, 08   6:30 PM JimStacey Male 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
All of us in our group loved the Segways, but we were not impressed with the guides. One never made eye contact (duh, you're dealing with the public), and neither had much enthusiasm for presenting historical data, or seemed to know anything that we hadn't already learned elsewhere. I think the tour could have been of the airport or some other venue and we would have still loved it because of the magic machines, but it would have been nice if the guides acted as if they cared. And for god's sake, isn't charging $2 for bottled water a little petty?

Lots of fun!!!
Wed, Jun 11, 08   6:30 PM brucemaples Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We had a blast. Going in we had some reservation, but after the training session and practice it was a breeze. Our trip was about two hours and we could have done twice that. Feet get a little tired but there was time to break and walk around while on the tour. If you get the chance, this is a cool ride, all of our group enjoyed it with the exception of one lady who had a spill but she got to close to a retaining wall and lost control. She was able to continue the tour with a only a bump to the elbow. An excellent time overall.

Segways were awesome but tour guide needed help!
Wed, Jun 11, 08   3:30 PM emcole8 Female 20-29 Local Couple on a Date
I am a 26-year-old, fun-loving resident of Washington, DC and had been waiting enthusiastically for someone to visit me so I had an excuse to do one of the goofy-yet-fun-looking Segway tours. I finally had my chance last week and left utterly disappointed. The Segways themselves -- and Capital Segway's orientation process -- was just fine. A very convenient location and well-run program. But when it came time for the tour...now that's a different story. The tour guide, MAYBE 20 years old, was not the least bit professional. First, he looked like he came from the gym (granted it was a scorcher that day, but perhaps a polo and some khaki shorts might be better??). That might not have mattered that much except for the fact that he was awful at explaining to us where we were going and gave bare-bones descriptions, at best, of all the stops. It was as if he had just Wikipedia-d the sites beforehand and was rattling off random facts as we went along. No interesting narrative, no context of where we were, unable to answer questions...nothin'. I mean, I know I live here so perhaps I just have a smidge more DC knowledge ingrained in me, but come on, dude! Give us our money's worth! Like I said, Capital Segway -- the only licensed Segway tour company -- had everything right in terms of reservations, orientation, etc. I just think they should be more picky about their tour guides: require college history students or something. I felt like I should have just rented two Segways and gave my friend the tour myself. For all the DC visitors who truly want to learn something about this city, here are some more tips: book your Capitol tour through your senator or representative. I did and the gal led us on a 2-hour, comprehensive Capitol tour in which we got to see the Senate in session and everything! Set it up by calling your congressperson's office. It's way better than standing in line at the general tour center. Also, reserve a place at the National Archives and you get to go in a special entrance instead of waiting in the 1-2 hour line.

AWESOME EXPERIENCE
Wed, Jun 11, 08   3:30 PM timeoff1 Female 40-49 Local Family Without Children
I thoroughly enjoyed riding the Segway through town. It was the perfect way to tour the city! (The initial curb to cross the first street was a little frieghtening to my Mom who opted not to go on the tour. Would recommend taking that part a little slower especially after reviewing the video.) Otherwise I would recommend this to my friends and family, and I will do it again!

Tour In Style

On a sweltering 100 degree plus afternoon nothing beats touring the sights of DC on your own personalized transport. Covering serious miles while not sweating it is great. The added bonus of gliding and tangoing with the Segway seals the deal.

The bomb!!
Sun, Jun 8, 08   3:30 PM Pabby6969 Male 30-39 Local Couple on a Date
People will look at you and stare in awe..and wish it was them upon this cool piece of technology!!! Zip around DC effortlessly like a VIP (you and the 12 other strangers you are with) for 2 fun filled hours. The tour is ok, but the real fun is riding around on the i2 segway This is one of the top 10 coolest things I have done in my lifetime

The tour leaders were patient and fun. We very much enjoyed it and have told our friends what a great time we had. We enjoyed it so much, as we travel to other cities, if they offer tours like this, we will do them.
