“Rainy Day Segway”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 May 2012 NEW

I booked ahead because I thought it would sell out and the forecast looked decent. Relearned the lesson that tours are not busy during the off season because only one other group had signed up. Something is strange on the online booking system so beware. They have a lot of segways but the website made it look like it was... More

What a fantastic trip! I was a little nervous before taking our Segway tour of the Boston waterfront. But our guide Captain Norm patiently and effectively "trained" us on using the Segway. Nothing could be easier. Before heading out we learned to do 360's on a dime and to quickly come to a stop. And then we were off! We... More

My friend invited me to use two of her online vouchers for a Segway tour in Boston to celebrate her birthday. When I booked the tour the weather forecast was great but as the tour date approached it became clear that we would be riding in the rain. My friend wasn't sure how she felt about that despite the professional... More

“Lots of fun!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 May 2012

It was very easy to get the hang of the Segway and to feel safe even in the streets of Boston. We covered a lot of territory on the waterfront in an hour- we've lived in the Boston area for over 20 years, but we still saw some areas we had never been to before. Captain Norm was great, too-... More

“Visiting Boston the XXIst Century Way”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 May 2012

Excellent attraction: You get a fast forward tour of Boston. There are two options: 1h or 2h tour. We picked the 2h tour and really recommend it. Our guide was Virginie: very professional and courteous (also speaks French).

I love Segways and have done tours at Disney twice. My girlfriend had never been on one before and was a bit apprehensive. We're both locals wanted a new adventure and we got it. The way it works is you show up, sign in, sign a waiver and get your picture taken for your Segway license. There's a short video... More
