Seller Description:
Our guided Segway tours will get you up close and personal to Raleigh’s points of interest. There’s nothing like sightseeing on a Segway, and unlike a walking tour, you’ll cover much more ground as you effortlessly “glide” from place to place.
You'll be riding state-of-the-art Segway i2s featuring LeanSteer technology: shift your weight forward, backward, lean the handlebars left or right, and the Segway smoothly moves in the direction you want to go!

Activity Description
Join us for a Raleigh sightseeing tour through Historic Oakwood, a pretty downtown neighborhood filled with restored 19th-century homes in a variety of architectural styles. See where prominent city founders once lived and tour through Oakwood Cemetery, including an extended glide through its rolling, park-like grounds and a stroll in the Confederate Cemetery.
During our fully narrated Segway tour, you'll see:
- Oakwood Historic District: The 19th-century neighborhood was Raleigh's first true "suburb" and is filled with lovely period homes.
- Oakwood Cemetery: Founded in 1869, it's the final resting place of nearly 1,500 Confederate soldiers; the House of Memory pays tribute to North Carolinians who've served our country in times of conflict.
- Governor's Mansion: Built in 1891, the stately Queen-Anne style home was built with convict labor and serves as the official residence of North Carolina's governor.
- Moore Square: One of the original four "park" squares of the City plan, the park is now used for many city celebrations.
- Historic City Market: Founded in 1914, it replaced the Raleigh market traditionally held on Fayetteville Street, making it Raleigh's first "shopping center."
Minimum rider age is 14 years old. Those who are 14-17 must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Each rider must weigh between 100-260 pounds.
