Please note that we are currently only offering private Segway tours of groups from 2-8 guests. We hope to resume public Segway tours sometime in 2021, but will continue to follow local guidelines regarding one-household group composition.
Experience the most beautiful sites of San Francisco away from the bustling crowds of downtown! This tour focuses on the hidden gems of the Golden Gate park. It’s the perfect location to see and explore the many treasures the city has to offer as well as cruise along the seven-mile stretch of landscaped pathways without worrying about traffic. This tour highlights the fun of riding Segways and the beauty of San Francisco.
Before the tour, we will conduct a brief training session near the Japanese Tea Garden to ensure that everyone feels comfortable on a Segway. Then, we will start our journey through the park, stopping to see and talk about the de Young Museum, the Conservatory of Flowers, and the California Academy of Sciences among other sites throughout the park. We will cruise through the breathtaking Redwood Memorial Grove, spend some time enjoying Stow Lake as we circle Strawberry Hill, and check out the hidden sites in Fern Grotto. San Francisco has preserved this lush natural park to be enjoyed, and we know all of the best spots!
We hope that you will join us for a relaxing tour of the beautiful Golden Gate park, away from the busy streets of downtown. Our expert tour guides will bring the history of this wonderfully preserved park to life and point out hidden gems along the way. For those visiting San Francisco for the first time and veterans alike, we're certain you'll learn something new about our beloved city on this tour!

Our San Francisco Segway Experience Tour allows you to enjoy the Segways off the beaten path of the downtown area, while our classic Segway Tour stays within the Fisherman's Wharf area of the city. Both offer stunning views, but our Segway Experience Tour will take you to hidden gems throughout the Golden Gate Park. There is no overlap in these tours and both are a great way to discover San Francisco!
For your riding safety, guests must be at least 12 years of age and weigh at least 100 pounds and not in excess of 250 pounds. Here in San Francisco we have to stick very strictly to our minimum weight of 100 pounds, as anyone under that weight runs the risk of having the Segway respond improperly on the (small) hills encountered on tour.
Unfortunately, due to the risk to both child and mother, pregnant women are not allowed to participate on our Segway Tours.
Our tours operate in groups of 8.
For safety reasons, minors (anyone under the age of 18) must be accompanied by an adult on the tour.
If the party is larger than 8 the group will be split up for safety reasons. If you would like to keep a larger group together, please get in touch with us.
Your tour will start promptly at the scheduled time, therefore please arrive 15 minutes prior to tour departure time in order to complete the necessary paperwork. Please be aware that we have multiple tours departing throughout the day, therefore if you arrive more than 30 minutes early we may still be working with other guests and not quite ready to welcome you properly. Each member of your party will be required to complete and sign a liability waiver form. Minors under the age of 18 will need a parent or guardian to complete their paperwork.
We do not take a deposit, though we do ask one member of your party to provide us with a credit card to save on file while you are on tour. Your card will not be charged unless there is damage caused to the Segway and card information will be deleted immediately upon completion of a damage-free tour.
Our tours are only offered in English at this time.
We do not enter the museums and monuments since the Segway are so much fun! However, we will give you a great orientation of the city so you'll know exactly where you will want to go after the tour.
Absolutely! However, we do recommend that you ask your guide to take your pictures so you can focus on riding and balancing on your Segway.
We're happy to offer free changes and 100% refund up to 24 hours before tour* Failure to cancel a reservation at least 24 hours prior to scheduled departure may result in forfeited travel funds. Fare difference may apply.
No. Our tours operate rain or shine. We have ponchos available for purchase in our office for $1 and are happy to refund the price if it is unopened and unused.
Your safety is always our highest priority; therefore, we begin each tour with a very thorough orientation of the Segway and its use before going out to enjoy the city!
We have had several people with disabilities join our tours. The necessary range of motion required to operate a Segway is similar to that of being able to transfer weight from one foot to another while walking. Also, riding a Segway does require the need to be able to stand for long periods of time. Each of our tours begins with a short safety video followed by time to practice in our training area across the street and instruction from your tour guide. We will practice on the Segways until everyone feels comfortable.
Unfortunately we do not rent our Segways out to individuals without a guide.
