It was alot of fun and easy to learn. My whole family enjoyed it - ages 13 and 15. Considering taking the advance tour next time.

In one sense, this is the quintessential Californian experience I suspect there are few other parts of the world doing Segway tours. The instruction we received was excellent and the guides knowledgeable and good fun into the bargain. The group sizes were small, which helped. It was fun being part of the tourist attraction of the waterfront as well! I enjoyed myself so much, I signed up for and went for the advanced tour 3 days later.

The Segway itself is amazing: if you don't think about it, and just go, then it's incredibly easy to drive, almost impossible to fall off, and they go fast too! But there's two things you need to know before you do this tour: first, it's cold in the afternoons, with the sea breeze coming in off Alcatraz and ripping through your inadequate clothing, so rug up! Second, you have to be prepared to have lots of tourists gawking at you. They just do. But it's a cool thing to do anyway, and I "definitely" recommend this tour.

Very Fun! Its much easier than it looks. We had one awkward fellow in our group and even he was able to get on and became an expert in no time. Bring your sunglasses in case it?s a sunny day!

I really enjoyed the Segway tour - more than I was expecting too. It's a little intimidating at first but it's not that hard to get the hang of. Once you figure it out you won't want to stop. You'll be pushing it to hit the 'speed limiter' the whole time! Be sure to dress warm if you're doing the tour down near the water in San Francisco.

The Segway tour was so much fun. It was much more fun than I expected and it was a lot easier than I expected too. Once you get up to "rabbit speed", you can really cruise. It was great! The tour guide was super funny and made it a blast!

Really great trip and well worth the money. My wife thought it was the highlight of our honeymoon. She was a little nervous to start with but once we got going there was no stopping her!

What a wonderful experience! We had an amazing and hilarious guide. I would definitely recommend this package, and in fact, I already have!

I loved it and so did my son. Our only complaints were a mis set expectation of how long the tour would be. I think it would be clearer if the wording stated that the tour length was 2 hours and actually was - not cut short by the tour director's feeling that the traffic was too heavy and therefor justified leaving our Fisherman's Wharf and shortening the trip and clearly stating how long the actual tour part of the program is. ie "a 30 minute orientation is followed by an hour and a half tour." The current marketing approach makes it sound like the tour itself is 2 hours long.

Our segway tour of San Francisco wharf was absolutely fantastic. Our guide was great, thorough in training, funny and just a pleasure to be with. Don't miss this tour, it's definitely worth it!

Too long Segway familiarisation, too little sightseeing. But riding Segway is fun and exiting.
