Our segway tour was wonderful in Washington DC. Jon did took us by all the major sites giving us history at each. You can see so much more in a short time frame on the segways. The tour gave us a overview of the area so we could find the musuems we wanted to visit and monuments to see again closer. Totally recommend the tour!

Our tour guide Jen was amazing and very knowledgeable. Much better way to see the mall given the distance we had to cover and also being so warm.

I really enjoyed this Segway tour. The thing that I was most worried about was actually riding on the Segway, but the guide made the whole process easy. I also surprisingly enjoyed the background info on the sites that we saw. I have already recommended this tour to all I have come in contact with since. It was AWESOME!!!!!
