Free Glide: The Santa Barbara Segway Rental |
What do I do if I want to rent my Segway for longer than one hour?
If you would like to rent your Segway for a more than one hour, please
purchase the one hour rental to guarantee your Segway now. Once you have
purchased, please "Contact this seller" and we will accommodate your needs.
Is there a deposit required?
Yes. As car rental companies often do, we run an authorization (not a charge!) on your credit card in the amount of $250 per machine. When the tour is complete, there is NO CHARGE to your account. (We recommend you use a credit card and NOT a debit card as some banks can put a hold on your debit card funds for a few days after an authorization.) You will need either a credit card or a debit card present with you with enough available credit for $250 per machine to take the tour.
Do I need a driver's license to ride a Segway?
No. The Segway HT's are classified as Personal Assistance Mobility Devices. You are considered a pedestrian when riding.
Is there a minimum age to rent a Segway?
Due to insurance requirements, you must be 14 years or older to ride. If you are 18 years or younger you must be accompanied by an adult 25 years or older.
Is there a weight requirement / limitation?
Yes, gliders must weigh between 100lbs and 300lbs to take the tour.
Do I have to sign a waiver?
All Segway gliders must sign a liability waiver before participating. Gliders 18 years or under must have an adult 25 years or above sign for them and participate in the tour with them.
How will we know where to go?
Before you depart, we help you plan out your itinerary. There’s no need for a map. We’ll talk you through all the best places to go and how to get there, so you can make the most of your Segway experience!
Do I have to wear a helmet?
It is our policy to require all gliders to wear a helmet. One will be provided to you free of charge.
I'm a Santa Barbara local - will I enjoy this tour?
Even if you have seen beautiful Santa Barbara before, you'll still enjoy the unique experience of riding a Segway.
What happens if it rains?
The activity usually runs in light rain and other moderate weather conditions, but we may cancel the activity up to an hour before the start time in the event of severe or unsafe weather conditions. If we cancel the event, ticket-holders will be allowed to reschedule tickets (subject to availability) or receive credit for a future event.
Can I buy food or drinks along the way? What about souvenirs?
This is your tour! Feel free to stop and take advantage of everything Santa Barbara has to offer. Just remember to take in all the great sights along the way!
Can more than one person ride at a time?
No. Unfortunately, Segways are single person vehicles.
Will I be able to take pictures along the way?
Yes!! Bring your camera to capture all the sights of beautiful Santa Barbara. You will have plenty of photo opportunities and we strongly encourage you to take advantage of them!
Do Segways have the ability to store bags, purses?
We have the ability to transport necessary items like cameras and medications. However, we advise you to keep your personal items to a minimum as our storage capacity is VERY limited.
Are restrooms available?
Yes, restrooms are available at the meeting location. There are also public restroom stops along the tour route.
Do I need to have good balance to ride a Segway?
The Segway HT does most of the work for you. You must be able to stand independently but the Gyros do the balancing part!
Are gift certificates available?
