It is true. Segways have become a staple activity in most major tourist destinations around the globe. We are adding segway tours to our sites like they are going out of style, but let’s hope they don’t! Truthfully, it is not likely since production of these machines has substantially increased in recent years.
Most recently, we added Segway options in Toronto, San Francisco, Miami, and Lisbon, Portugal. We are currently exploring numerous international destinations, as well as a handful of ‘missing’ domestic locations. A few other popular cities with Segways for hire include: Chicago, Washington DC, Atlanta, San Diego, Paris, Rome, and Sydney. For a complete list of over 55 (and growing) segway tours that we offer, please visit Reserve123.
What is a Segway?
A Segway is a self-balancing electric vehicle that features two wheels. It was invented by a man named Dean Kamen, and is produced in the United States. The name “Segway” is a homophone of the word “segue”, which means a smooth transition. When you lean forward, the device moves forward. When you lean back, it brakes and ultimately goes backwards. Turning is simple when you use the “leaning steering wheel”, and the top speed is around 12.5 MPH. As you can imagine by the name, they are smooooth. Like buttah!
Riding a Segway is quite a unique experience. When you factor in the fact that they are green friendly (they are 100% electric), you don’t have to feel at all guilty as you glide around your destination. Riding the Segway is fun in and of itself. Throw in some new and exciting scenery, and you have a winning combination for sure.
