Lots of Fun

The Segways are awesome and a lot of fun. As far as the tour goes, there wasn't much to it...couldn't ride along the canal as promised and the Island had an event going on during so we couldn't really go there either. Our guide seem to make up time by taking a long break over at Tredigar Iron Works-So as far as the tour itself-they need to do a much better job. We ended up waiting about 15 min for 2 people who were running late-so that also cut into our tour. Its a great idea and riding the Segways make it worthwhile though, they really are fun and are easy to learn and use. I will either just rent them next time or try out one of the other mini tours to see if it is better organized.

Enjoyable two hours. The segway was easy to manage and fun to ride... The historical portion of the tour was lacking, but the city sites and the other participants created enough entertainment....

Hi there --- this was a nice easy going tour.. great way to see some sites, segways are fun! Although the tour guide had details about the locations we visited she wasn't very direct. One of the people on our tour but not in our group was extremely erratic and was abusive towards the equipment - zooming by and trying to stop quick almost mimicking a weeble-wobble (fisherprice toy) and showed complete disregard for his safety and the safety of others. At one point he was zooming through / around cement poles in the ground and came so quickly around that he knocked over someone on my group to the ground and did't apologize and the tour guide didn't say anything. Had she been more direct up front when we were practicing and when he was exhibiting these behaviors before we started this collision would have been avoided. Thankfully no one was hurt.

I was trying to find a memorable activity to spend with my sister who was coming to visit me for a week. I surprised her with the Segway Richmond tour! She was so excited and so was I! We had Sarah as our tour guide, along with 3 others fun riders!. We were surprised how easy it was to learn to ride the Segway. A little practice, and away we went. We were able to maneuver our Segways through busy sidewalks and crossing roads. This was not a problem, and we are in our 50's!. We will remember this trip for a long time and I would highly recommend Segway of Richmond to anyone!

Our guide, Allison, arrived on time and was very knowledgeable about the sights and sounds of an old part of Richmond. We had a great time.

We did the tour in the pouring rain and we still had a blast. Tony, our tour guide was very knowledgeable and fun to be around. The guys in the store were just as pleasant. I would highly recommend this tour.

Our tour guide taught us how to ride the Segway and was very gracious as we attempted to learn. He paced the tour nicely and was concerned about our comfort and safety. The length of the tour is just right and I think the price is fair. I loved getting around the city on the Segway and would recommend the tour. Our tour guide, while a nice young man, was not as well versed in Richmond history as I would have liked. There were a number of questions he could not answer. The question that stands out regarded a large statute of Henry Flood Byrd. We asked who Mr. Bird was. He did not know. Yet, I found out later that Mr. Byrd was a very important man in Virginia history.

This was a fun and informative trip. Our guides name was Tony and he did an excellent job. I wanted to experience riding a Segway because I am considering buying one in the near future. I have a handicap that limits my walking ability and I am not ready for a wheelchair. Now I need to decide if I want a normal Segway or one for off road. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. My wife and daughter both went on the Segway tour and they both enjoyed the tour. In conclusion ty it you will like it.
