I've lived in the DC area for almost eight years now, but I learned a lot about the history of this dynamic city during the tour. I brought three out of town family members on the tour with me Labor Day weekend.

The tour guides were engaging, light hearted, and very kind. They provided ponchos for each of us as there was a light drizzle as we disembarked. My sister has knee pain and was nervous about riding the Segway, but the guides were very patient and encouraging to her. I overheard one of them offering supportive words and genuine kindness. She eventually gained confidence and truly enjoyed the experience. We all did!

I highly recommend this tour to native DCers, adults, kids... anyone who likes to learn and have good a new experience to remember.

Kyle and Teddy were fantastic tour guides, a two hour tour that felt like it was all day with the information and places they got through, two hours on a segway is one of the best ways to get around washington. Every capital city in the world should have a capital Segway tour there that hood and value for money. Brilliant tour not to be missed.

A Segway tour is an amazing way to show visitors from out of town the city that we are so proud of. This is my third time taking friends and family, although with varying companies. Within 15 minutes, even the most timid users are comfortable, in many cases, people who had previously declared themselves "clutzes". Capital Tours is among the best, having used several vendors. Their location adjacent to parking is a HUGE plus. Be sure to get your car claim ticket stamped for a discount!

This was a great tour but for the money it was disappointing that several headsets did not work in our group of 8 people. Maybe the tour company should change all of the batteries regularly and take several extra sets on the tour. Hearing the history is part of the reason we took this tour but it turns out we just got an expensive ride on a segway.

This is a fun, very quick tour of the National Mall landmarks. Our guide was great - funny little stories and picture stops whenever we requested. Definitely recommend, but be prepared - this is not for someone who wants to spend a lot of time at each stop, and truly explore the sights. It is meant to give you a glimpse and is a fun way to do so.
A couple things that I appreciated: 1) We were waitlisted but they were prompt in calling us when they had cancellations 2) Our guide squeezed in an extra stop at our request, which was very nice.

I made arrangements for my family and I to take the Segway tour when they were in from out of town. My mother was nervous to try due to her age but the staff there was so encouraging and she actually was better than me! Even as a local, I learned a lot from our tour guide - it was the perfect length of time and it was so fun to zoom around the city. Thanks to our tour guide, Justin, who was awesome, funny, and full of info on our beloved capital.

Tour was overbooked. I was not allowed to participate, even though I had already arrived at the set meeting place on time. I was contacted by the booking agent Christina and notified the tour was over booked by one person and that was me. All other people on the tour booked in groups of two or more. Since I booked as a single person I was not allowed to participate. Beware! Booking as a single person you may not be allowed to go on the tour since tours fill up quickly and you will not get notified until minutes before the tour starts that you will not be able to participate.

Hello, Sorry that we are only seeing this now. We are locally operated and do not have any booking agent Christina who would call after a guest has already arrived. We also do not overbook and would never turn someone away on that basis. Please feel free to email us directly at tours@capitalsegway.com so we can figure out what happened here.

Segways are easier to ride than you think! The staff are most courteous and super-concerned for your safety, including training on balance and operation. The 2 hour tour of DC is pretty much what you'd expect with lots of interesting trivia thrown in, too. We had a great time and would recommend this to anyone looking for a fun diversion to the average sight-seeing tour!
Thanks, guys! We hope to see you again!

I hope you two get to read this review...And that you remember who this is from that comment! 🤓 We had such a great time on Capital Segway Tours! You guys made it easy to learn to drive the Segway in just a few minutes and you kept the history coming with lots of jokes sprinkled in. Loads of history, loads of sights seen, and loads of fun. 10 out of 10, would definitely book this tour again! We wish you both the best! -Alicia & Matt

We had a wonderful time with our guide Ryan through DC. Ryan made the tour custom to us and he even made it into and game! We had rounds with questions and fun questions. We really enjoyed everything about the Segways and the tour company. We loved that they use a wispier device to communicate with the group as you travel along. Really helps you get more out of your time on the Segway. We would highly recommend you check them out if you are interested in seeing a lot in DC in one day. You will not be disappointed.
