We had several hours to spend in Tampa before a late evening flight home. My 14 yr old son and 16 yr old daughter talked me into doing the segway tour. I am so glad I agreed!! We really had so much fun. Brian and Jeff were great guys who made the tour that much better. My family had a... More

This was an awesome experience for my family. My teenage children loved to the site seeing and the experience of riding a Segway. This is a great adventure for anyone who lives in Tampa or is visiting.

When we were given this as a gift we thought it would be fun but had no idea it would be SOOO much fun. The tour guide was very nice & friendly and made learning how to ride a segway a piece of cake! He gave us plenty of time to just ride around in a big park on the... More

This is a new tour added to the Segway company. It shows the night lights of Tampa that the daytime tour didn't have. We had a perfect evening for our tour and took off right away, touring the downtown area with our tour guide, Tom. He took us all around the river walk and over to the Tampa University campus....

We came down to Tampa from a small town in Iowa for a business meeting and decided to go on the segway tour. The owners were so friendly, accomodating, and really made the expierence a great one. They teach you how to ride the segways and let you practice before going out to the streets. Once there, they show you... More

I first posted a review in December, 2012 when we rode Segways on Tampa's Riverwalk and UT campus. Last night we followed the same basic route but at night. This was our best ride yet. We enjoyed beautiful weather and fantastic views as the sun set and the city's lights took over. As with our previous daytime ride, our guide... More

I recently had out-of-town family members visiting and thought a Tampa Segway tour would be fun as well as a good overview of the downtown Tampa area. I was so right! Our guide Brian was wonderful, very thorough, patient, funny and sweet. Riding a Segway was much easier than I was afraid it might be! Piece of cake! We had... More

He gave us easy and thorough instruction on the use and safety of the Segway and then we went out on our tour. The tour was wonderful. He kept a pace that was... More

Tom was a great guide. We had so much fun riding along the Tampa Riverwalk and crossing the river to ride around the UT campus. The city was beautiful at night with all the lights on. It was apparent that he was very proud of his city.

Last Monday we had our first Segway tour. We chose the Tampa tour which travels along the scenic River Walk area of Tampa. It was extremely enjoyable and our tour guide Brian gave us a thorough introduction to the use of the Segway which turned out to be easy -- even for us 60 year olds. This trip was recommended...
