Best tour

The Segway tour was exceptional. Our tour guide was very attentive and made sure that everyone kept up and was safe. The tour was fun and our guide was very knowledgeable about the different historical sites.

Repeat!!!

familygalChicagoIL, 01-01-2023

So happy we scheduled a morning Segway tour. Turns out the July 4 weekend we visited Washington DC was a scorcher! However the morning tour of monuments was perfect! Learning to ride a Segway is a piece of cake. Breezy riding while on segways which made it even more comfortable. There was one participant in our group who wouldn’t stop using his phone while we were moving despite being asked repeatedly. That was not fun because I felt like our safety was in jeopardy. I would highly recommend this activity and hope to do it again in DC!

Enjoyable but risky

Fantastic tour, however the pre tour experience was slightly disappointing, especially when compared to competing Segway tour company(ies) in the area. And there’s no bathroom in the premises, so make sure you arrive early enough to find the nearest public bathroom before your tour starts. Tour guide was incredibly informative and passionate about what he does, however not the nicest guy and willing to take many risks, once you’ve signed their waiver and “training” document. I would recommend it for people with at least a couple of hours of solid Segway experience and/or if the competing tour companies are already booked.

Great way to see Washington when you have limited time

What an awesome way to see some of the sites around Washington. After a little training on how to use the Segways, it was off to see the sites. Had a great group and Joe as out tour guide was great and knowledgeable. Totally recommend doing this if you have limited time!
