Training:
Riding a Segway is similar to riding a bike—it's intuitive but nobody is born knowing how to operate it. That's why the tour time includes 35-45 minutes of rider training so you can get comfortable on the Segway before we head out on the route.
The training session provides first-time riders with the skills, knowledge, and experience needed to safely operate the Segway. You'll be guided through a simulated obstacle course of cones, turns, and an emergency stop to ensure a safe, enjoyable experience.
Training includes: Hands-on training with an instructor, introductory video, test ride and skills review, rider courtesy instruction and review of the rules of the road.
Important: Please arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled tour time to have adequate time to check in and start your tour and training on schedule. If you arrive late we will NOT let you join a tour group that has already started training. Safety and complete training for all of our guests is our 1st priority.
