We just finished our tour of Golden Gate Park on a Segway.  
I would normally avoid the tourist attraction tours of San Francisco as I’m a 20-year resident, but, for this, I made an exception.  It was amazing!!
Electric Tour Company Tours did a fantastic job from beginning to end.  Our party was a mix of people, some who had been on a Segway before, and some novices.
The team at ETC started off introducing the Segway to everyone and then gave an individual introduction training session to each person.  Once everyone was comfortable with the basics, they moved on to navigation and stopping practice.
San Francisco has very “interesting” weather.  It can drop in temperature very quickly when the fog comes in or when the sun goes down.  The ETC team supplied warm jackets and gloves to make our tour comfortable - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
Once we started the tour, Johannes (our guide) took us on a tour of the eastern side of the park.  He was VERY funny and I highly recommend you try to book a tour with him.  He gave us the history of the park and pointed out various plants and trees.  He also allowed us to use the Segway both on paved paths as well as off-road (Let’s not deny we are here for the fun of riding the Segway after all!!)
The Segway is very easy to use and not strenuous at all.
I will be putting this tour on our list when the family comes into town to visit.

We did the Official Golden Gate Segway Tour with the very knowledgeable and delightful Johannes. It was a beautiful February day, and we could not have spent a more enjoyable Saturday morning. The park is a quiet, green oasis in the city, with lots of history and sightseeing to enjoy. There cannot be a better way to do it than on a Segway—fun, easy to operate and safe! Our family of four had a blast. Worth every penny! (Be sure to leave time to visit the California Academy of Science, just steps away from the tour office, for hours of fun exploring science and nature!

Three couples (longtime friends) decided to do a Segway tour. I was really nervous. I knew I could have difficulty stepping on and off and quietly mentioned that to Jack. He said “I will be there each time until you are comfortable”- and he was! He didn’t make a big deal out of it - he was just there until the point in the tour when we both knew I was fine. So I got comfortable quickly. He was informative and fun - in addition to dealing with six “seniors” with a sense of grace and ease. I cannot say enough good things about Jack. The tour was great fun and we all learned a lot. My friends live in San Francisco and use this company each time they bring visitors.

It is easy to pick up how to ride, and I would do it again in a heartbeat!

This was so much fun! Our guide, Jace, made sure everyone was comfortable using the Segway before we started and then led us on a tour for about 1 hr 45 min around Golden Gate Park. We had an earpiece so that he could talk while we rode around as well as during our stops. He was entertaining and informative and made the tour a great experience. Our whole family enjoyed this experience!

Sam was an excellent guide :) I took my 73 year old mother and they kept checking on her to make sure she felt good on the Segway. The tour was fantastic, I especially enjoyed the fortune cookie factory and am heading back there today. The training was thorough the group was small. This was perfect. Susan was also great as one of our riders fell sick the day before the tour and was unable to make it. They are refunding the one rider, a completely unexpected, but welcome, surprise. I recommend!!

My boyfriend and I stayed a weekend at SF and decided to do a Segway tour last minute. Susan was an awesome guide and the tour was so worth it. They first gave us an intro on how to ride and then took us out to the street. I felt pretty safe riding on the streets and Susans commentary was very engaging and entertaining. We even got to stopped at little Italy where Susan pointed out some of the best places to eat. After little Italy, Susan took us to coit tower and then we rode back through Fishermans Wharf. Susan also took loads of pictures and sent them to us afterward. I’ll definitely be back next time for the golden gate tour!

My family of 4 did the "Lombard Street & Hills Advanced Segway Tour". It was a great time with our guide Adam and 2 other people, which was nice and small. You really do need some prior Segway experience because those hills and streets of San Francisco are no joke. The views from the streets, hills, Wharf, Coit Tower, and Lombard are fantastic. Adam also gave some great history of the area. The tour starts and ends in Umbrella Alley, which is a really cool spot for art and photos. When you're done head on over to Blue Mermaid for lunch (great chowder) and then hit Ghiradelli for dessert. What a great day!

We enjoyed the tour with Johannes through Golden Gate Park West and to the ocean. He was an excellent tour guide who catered to our every need and kept safety as a priority. We learned a lot about the park and its history. Thanks Yoyo!

During the COVID shutdown, this was the only Segway tour available in Golden Gate Park. Great find! We had a knowledgeable, friendly and safety-conscious guide named Johannes who took us on a 3 hour private tour of Golden Gate Park. Since it was a private tour, we could choose where to go, where to take pics, etc. I've lived in the Bay Area all my life and didn't know so much existed in Golden Gate Park - many lakes, horse stables, bison roaming around, windmills, casting pools, huge polo field, etc. Riding the Segways was thrilling and easy to do once you get the hang of it. Highly recommend as a family outing (we have two boys in their 20s)!!

We were very luck when we did the tour. Only the two of us and Jeff the guide. Jeff was very informative and really new his local plants and historical information about the Golden Gate Park. We enjoyed it so much, recommend it to anyone. We are over 58 years old so anyone can do this.
