  1. What is a Segway?
    The Segway Human Transporter is the first of its kind-a self-balancing, personal transportation device designed to go anywhere people do. Easy to use and operate, the two-wheeled Segway sports high-tech gyroscopes that automatically respond to your body's movements, "sensing" when it should speed up and slow down.

    You stand on a small platform between left and right wheels as you hold onto handlebars at a comfortable waist height. The Segway handles the balancing for you, so that you're always upright as you glide through any environment.
  2. Is there a weight limit for the tour?
    There is a recommended limit of 265 lbs. and we ask our guests to be within a reasonable range of this limit.
  3. What happens if it rains?
    Our tours run rain or shine. We have ponchos available for anyone that needs them in our office.
  4. Do we go inside the museums and monuments?
    We do not enter the museums and monuments since the Segways are so much fun! We will give you a great orientation however, and you'll know exactly where you want to go after the tour.
  5. Are the Segways safe for children or people with disabilities?
    Although riding a Segway is relatively easy, the District of Columbia requires that all riders be at least 16 years of age.

    Each of our tours begin with a 30-minute orientation session. We will practice on the Segways until everyone feels comfortable. A Segway is not an ideal mode of touring for people with some mobility issues. All guests must be able to easily and quickly step on and off the Segway without any assistance, which requires physical abilities similar to climbing and descending stairs without assistance or use of handrails.
  6. What do you actually see on tour?
    We check out the White House, the Washington Monument, the Capital Building, and just about everything in between.
