Expand/Collapse What is a Segway?

The SegwayTM Human Transporter is the first of its kind-a self-balancing, personal transportation device designed to go anywhere people do. Easy to use and operate, the two-wheeled Segway sports high-tech gyroscopes that automatically respond to your body’s movements, “sensing” when it should speed up and slow down.

You stand on a small platform between left and right wheels as you hold onto handlebars at a comfortable waist height. The Segway handles the balancing for you, so that you’re always upright as you glide through any environment.

Expand/Collapse How many people take part in the Segway tours?

Our tours are very popular, and for good reason. We highly recommend reservations for all of our tours, but are happy to accommodate walk-ups as space is often available.
