About this activity
Choose from a morning or afternoon departure and connect with your guide in central Cagliari. Begin with a 30-minute orientation session to get you comfortable with the self-balancing, electric vehicle. Once you’ve got the hang of it and feel ready to begin, pop in your headphones and get moving.
Follow your guide around the attractive Marina district, zooming along the coast, through ancient lanes and over to the bustling Piazza Yenne, a small square dotted with cafes and bars. Then, start the ascent up the sloping streets toward Cagliari’s historical center.
Climb up the hills and curve around the tight corners without so much as breaking a sweat; the Segway does all the hard work for you. Cruise through the tree-lined pathways of the Public Gardens, passing by the Municipal Art Gallery, a grand Neoclassical building within the park’s confines.
Navigate your way through steep alleys and cobbled piazzas of the medieval Castello district. Along the way, see sights that bear witness to the city’s incredible history. Admire the imposing fortifications, including the hulking St Pancras Tower, which is located at the highest point of the city. View the elegant Royal Palace and various striking churches including the 13th-century Cagliari Cathedral.
Venture further north to discover the incredible ruins of a Roman amphitheater. Set high up on the Buon Cammino hill, this site boasts commanding views of the fortified city below.
Break for a refreshing drink in a terrace cafe in Castello, then make your way back down towards the harbor, where your tour concludes.

I booked this tour for my son and I to experience something different on my 62nd birthday. The tour was excellent value for money and exceeded both our expectations. The guide was first rate, relating historical facts and some very amusing legends! He was always willing to answer additional questions about the area and about Sardinia in general. You are in safe hands, the 15 min training at the start, puts you at ease which certainly overcame my fears, as my coordination and balance is not very good. I highly recommend this tour at the start of your first visit to Cagliari, it will enhance the rest of your stay!
Great fun, an excellent way to see Cagliari and climb those hills! Only criticism is lack of headphones that we were expecting. Our guide Ivo was first- class, very knowledgeable and witty. Recommended.
Review almost 1 year late. An amazing experience, that actually got me into recreational segway activity back in the UK. I dont think anything will top Segwaying through the narrow Mediterranean streets of Cagliari, up the hills, taking in the sights and the history. Amazing. We were fitted for equipment upon arrival and got to test our Segways thoroughly before taking off. We were given headsets to wear to communicate with the lead guide and let us hear about the history of where ever we stopped. Mid tour we stopped at a lovely bar in the hills for ice cold beer and snacks. Excellent. Will never forgot it. A highlight of the whole trip to Sardinia.
Great day out! My girlfriend loved her surprise gift and I did too!
Our first experience of segways tour.. in 3 words: we got addicted. Safety, security and necessary training was given during 30 minutes before we started. We were a bit unsure of which tour to pick there's the short and the long one. We went with the long one, and wished there was a longer one.Ivo spoke very good english, and it was a very entertaining tour. Highly recommended.
