About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- NovaDawn B0 contributionsA great overview of the city!We had a great time (90 minute) touring the city of Amboise. Segways are always a lot of fun, but this had a varied terrain—climbing up narrow streets and then down steep, narrow paths. David showed us some sights we would never have seen on our own. Highly recommend this tour.Written September 12, 2019
- MClarkyson0 contributionsBrilliant Fun!We did the 90 minute tour with David and it was brilliant! Segways are fantastic, Amboise is a lovely place and David is funny and informative! Amboise has a few hills so Segways are a good way to see the city, it also has plenty of history which David delivered using amazing English. It never once felt like he was just going over the same old information, it felt fresh and interesting. This is a highly recommend activity in Amboise and good value too!!!Written August 14, 2019
- cogs20150 contributionsSo much fun!We did the 45 min tour. An excellent way to see Amboise. Really good fun. David was a superb guide. Would 100% recommend thisWritten August 7, 2019
- michaeljones710 contributionsGreat TimeThis was a great way to explore the town. Instructions were a breeze and off we went. We did the 1.5 hour tour with David. David was amazing and gave a great tour with lots of laughs. We had our 13 year old son and 10 year old daughter. They didn’t stop talking about how much fun it was.Written July 6, 2019
- Trail4482030 contributionsSegway tour of AmboiseGreat trip. Excellent instruction/introduction to riding a Segway made it really simple and fast to master our steeds and go on to thoroughly enjoy the tour. Our guide, David, was v knowledgeable and extremely entertaining. His mastery of Anglaise was v good (and most appreciated), but his commentary was delivered with a beguiling French accent. He also brought a devilish sense of humour which kept us on our toes - was he really serious about doing 80km/h on a Segway?!!! It was a very relaxed tour culminating in a wine tasting at one of the myriad of underground caves which are highly valued for wine storage because of their constant cool temperature. A really enjoyable experience. Highly recommend🙂.Written July 5, 2019
- Global5101970 contributionsFreeway segwayWe loved the tour. David was an excellent guide and it’s a great way to see the town, learn some history and keep the teens engaged.Written July 3, 2019
- DrJenGB0 contributionsA magnificent and accessible way to meet lovely AmboiseWe are an intergenerational group of Segway novices. It was spectacular and enabled us to see this beautiful place together despite what would otherwise be physical limitations. The guide was wonderful. We felt safe. We were left in awe of this fabulous place. Thank you!Written July 3, 2019
- GsyGaza0 contributionsGreat Fun4 of us did the 45 minute Discovery Tour. 2 of our group hadn’t Segwayed before and were a little nervous, David our instructor/guide was patient and instilled confidence. Soon we were off around Amboise with a very interesting history lesson each time we stopped. First class adventure, so easy to do. Highly recommendedWritten June 10, 2019
- Manjit7560 contributionsVisiting the town with a super fun experienceA group of 7 of us were taken on a 2 hout tour including wine tasting. The guide/instructor Nicolas was very good and had a great sense of humour (not forgetting patience)Written May 7, 2019
- ElleEmDee0 contributionsWhat fun!A great way to see a small town like Amboise. Nicolas was patient with us as we had never ridden Segway’s before (it’s surprisingly easy) and was a very knowledgeable and entertaining guide. We did the 90min tour which was the perfect length- I think the 45 min would be too short. Highly recommend this tour.Written April 21, 2019
- 917sarah0 contributionsGreat fun!Had a really fun and interesting Segway tour. I was with my two sons and Guillaume the guide made it interesting and fun for all of us. He spoke English and joked with us throughout the 45mins he took us around the town. He really knew the history of the town and we all learned a lot of interesting facts / history. I would definitely recommend anyone visiting Amboise to give this a tryWritten September 15, 2018
- Subir D0 contributionsVery IntimateDavid took us for a two hour tour and was gentle, humorous and understanding of our slow pace. Gave us a good overview of places to visit in greater detail in Amboise. Thoroughly recommend!Written September 10, 2018
- laurarochford10 contributionsGreat family fun.Took the 1.5 hour tour of Amboise with our 13 year old daughter. We all loved it. What a way to see the city. Guillaume was great fun and a good Segway teacher. I will be looking for other Segway tours wherever we go.Written August 29, 2018
- JAYANTI R0 contributionsIncredible first Segway experienceAmazing experience filled with beautiful scenic views. David is an experienced and joyful Segway teacher and guide. We were taken to a small sight seeing tour exploring regions and routes we would’nt have seen otherwise. Overall, an experience not to be missed :)Written August 27, 2018
- Ilan O0 contributionsSegway tourAn extraordinary tour. We took a 45 min tour in Amboise. The tour is in the small streets of the old city of Amboise. Climbing up to the highest point looking on the whole area. Having 2 segways tours before, this one was unusual ride because we rode up and down (carefully and safly) and enjoyed the ride and the view. You dont need to have an experience. It was the first time for my daughters. So we put on our helmets and after instructions we were ready to go. The guide name is Gium. He was great. He told us before each section what to expect and how to use the segway wisely. He explained about the city, about the places in the area and more. He was funny and patient. All and all, the 45 min was much more than 45 min. So we had a great time. My daughters were thrilled. It cost us around 28 euros for an adult and 25 for a child. So, if you are in The loire vally in Amboise or bloia, don"t miss it.Written August 26, 2018

We were only two in our tour with David. He was fantastic. Taught us so much about the history of Amboise while safely maneuvering the streets. We were both first time Segway users and David was great at ensuring our comfort and made the trip really fun!

This was an exceptional experience. Nicholas was amazing, it was our first time on Segway’s and his instruction and patience was excellent. Nico also adapted the tour to what we wanted to do. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to try a new experience or who have previous experience. Thanks Nico.

We enjoyed a fantastic tour of Amboise on Segways with our knowledgeable and friendly guide David. It was a perfect activity for our family of 4 (two teenagers) to learn more about this beautiful place and have fun riding the Segways up and down the narrow roads. David did our tour in English, which he spoke perfectly. Highly recommend.

Only told after paying for the ticket that it had to be at 10am. Emailed to ask for a later slot as we were driving 2hrs to get there but told no. Emailed in the morning to say the traffic was busy and we didn't know where to park, asked for advice - none given. Managed to arrive in Amboise and had to find parking which took 15/20mins, running to segway when got an email to say it was cancelled due to his schedule. Had lunch and had to drive home. Not accommodating AT ALL.

We had a fantastic time in our Segway tour of Amboise. Our guide Nicolas, was very accommodating, friendly, interesting and funny. Our tween and teen thought it was an awesome tour and so did my wife and I. Nicolas made it easy to get (re-) acquainted with Segway riding and the tour itself was fantastic to see Amboise, which is beautiful. Highly recommends this tour!
