This is a great novelty and a lot of fun. I had a smile on my face the entire time I was zipping along the Seattle waterfront and later through the Seattle Center. These silly looking machines are easy to master and a ton of fun. Eric, our guide, even threw in some tidbits of Seattle history.

The Segway is easy to master and operate, even for a near-retirement-aged gal. The tour's a bit pricey, but is a fun way to cover a lot of territory in Seattle. After the tour, we walked back to some of the places we'd passed while on the tour, so got to view things more in depth.

Jacob was a great guide in Seattle. These were really easy to maneuver and you get to see so many more sights than you could walking or driving. It's not really conducive for a narrative along the way, so know a little about the town beforehand or just enjoy the sights.

This was an absolute gas. Nice, slightly strange Jacob gives a short lesson inside, then leads the group all over Seattle downtown area. Strange machines, but really fun to ride and much easier than walking. Takes a little courage to get started, have to trust the Segway, but in about 5 minutes you get the hang of it and just... More

My 12 year old daughter and I did this tour and had a blast. I had never been on a Segway before and had no idea they were so responsive and easy to ride. Once I got the hang of getting on and off, it was very easy. We covered a lot of ground, from Pioneer Square, along the waterfront,... More

Our family of four enjoyed the Segway tour immensely! It was easy to learn and so much fun to zip around the waterfront, Seattle Center, and Belltown. We live in Seattle so were not so interested in seeing the sites as we were in riding the Segways. I would advise taking the longest tour possible if your purpose is sightseeing... More

Simple and easy. Great way to see the city in a couple hours. Wish we could have rented them by the day to take our time at the sights. Guide was good, cheerful, and easy going. All the routes chosen were flat and easy. He took us to open areas where we could speed 15 mph and improving our leaning... More

Great guide - Jacob. Was reassuring to a newcomer whilst allowing experienced riders to enjoy themselves too.

We did the Segway Tour on Sunday with Jacob. I was nervous, too, as Jazure mentioned (we were in the same group), but it was so much easier than I thought! After a relatively brief introduction session we were off and running. It didn't hurt that the weather was spectacular, but Jacob was an extra fun guy and that made... More

It only took a couple minutes to get used to the Segway, it's intuitive, so all of the tour is just having a great time on it. Everyone in the tour picked up on using them in just a few minutes. We started down by the stadiums and went along the waterfront to one of the wide open piers and... More
