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

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). More

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

Every year we venture up to Boston in May for a family weekend. We usually take the Duck Tour but they don't have very good customer service and are just plain rude... This year we decided to "Segway" we thought the kids (17,20 &22) would enjoy this much more... We arrived, signed in watched the safety video, got our helmets... More

Great family outing. Our kids are aged 17 and 20 and had a BLAST! Wear Sunscreen, bring a backpack to carry... More
