      Great time!
      Navigating the hills of SF via segway is the only way to go!!! Had a great time and loved seeing the neighborhoods around Pier 19.

      An Absolute Highlight of Our Family's San Francisco Trip!
      Our family (including two teens) enjoyed a long weekend in San Francisco last summer and our 3 hour Segway tour of the city was an absolute highlight! In fact, it is really one of the best travel experiences we've had. This is such a great way to see this wonderful city! Our tour guide was superb and helped us see all the key sites. What is also great though is the thrill element of navigating the San Francisco hills on the Segway. I'm not sure I'll ever forget navigating down Lombard St. (or up the hill before it). Our kids still talk about it. An absolute highlight! Our experience with this touring group was superb....they focus on safety and training but also help you have a lot of fun. Highly, highly recommend!

      What a great experience!
      This was my first time on a segway and I was nervous. Loun was an amazing teacher and tour guide! He was patient and clear in his instructions and built my confidence quickly! This was a great way to see the city while trying something new! Highly recommend- going down Lombard Street was a once in a lifetime experience!

      City by Segway
      We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 hour Segway tour with Loun. My girlfriend and I were already experienced with a Segway when we arrived at the City Segway Tours office. Loun soon realised that we knew what we were doing and as it was only the three of us, he tailored the tour accordingly. This was great for us, because it meant having done the normal route in quick time, we also went down Lombard Street. For those of you unfamiliar with San Francisco, that is famous for being the most crooked street in the US. Terrific fun. We also went up to Coit Tower, up a very steep hill. Loun is a good guide and we enjoyed his company. Do this tour.

      Best Segway Tour in San Francisco. Best Guide: Loun
      We had a very good introduction with Loun. All driving techniques were very well explained. Our leader Loun led our group outstanding. Loun, our guide on the Segway also told us a lot about the history of San Francisco. We had a very interesting tour with the Segways through San Francisco.

      Best way to see the city
      Best way to see the city. Specially that today’s a holiday so not so much cars and people on the street. Got to run the segway top speed so many times. Very relaxing as you are just gliding the whole time, own pace, plus as you get too see a lot more of the city vs walking. Josh was an awesome guide. Funny, full of sound effects yet very informative.

      San Francisco like you have never seen it!!
      City Segway and our tour guide Femi he was fantastic! Femi is funny and puts you at ease. My husband and I and our two teenage boys 15,17 had a blast. You get a great history lesson that is fun and informative not boring. You see sights that would otherwise be hard to find parking if you took a car. If you are adventurist you have to try this! Best way to see the city!! Would go to City Segway again!! Highlight of our trip!! Thank you Femi for your patience and for bringing out the adventurist side in their 43 year old mom!

      Worth the money
      Day one we went to Alcatraz, interesting but pretty crowded. If you have mobility issues, your visit will be limited. Day two was the Segway tour, amazing! Our guide - Fima provided us with loads of interesting info, took us to all the sites and took pictures and videos for us. The ride down Lombard st was extra fun. I’ve been in a Segway many times but my boyfriend hadn’t tried before. Fima taught him in short order and neither of us had any problems, even on the steepest hills.

      So fun—great guide, great tour!!
      I had Loun (sp?) as my guide. I was actually the only one on my tour so he gave me a private tour. He was great in telling me the history of the city and his own personal experience. I got a great understanding and tour of the city in two hours! We stopped by the Ghirardelli shop and got samples. He took some great pictures and even a video of me on the segway!! We even went down the crookedest street on Segway. Great time and I would definitely recommend!!!!

    The office location was quite hard to find, need to add more directions. The video took out the fun & scared me instead. They have clean & complete equipments (helmet & gloves available) But Loun, the instructor/guide was kind enough to teach practical maneuvers. He's funny, accommodating (took us out for 3hrs instead of 2hrs 💪🏼 & gave us Ghirardelli chocolates 😁) though he doesn't know much of the history of SF. Tip: Know where you want to go & he can take you there.

    We enjoyed ourselves throughly! We had a detailed training and we very comfortable by the time we Hit The Road! Our guide was Lau and he was very helpful and taught us all about the neighborhoods and specifics about the area. He let us have fun and helped take pictures. We came away from this deciding to do Segway tours on ALL of our trips! Thanks Lau!!!

    Did the Segway tour on a Friday mid morning. Easy sign in. Josh was our guide for the day - took his time to ensure we were comfortable with the Segway. Kept his firm but cool and courteous tour guide style when one of the others in our group was not being courteous to the rest of our group. Great tour of the area, great information, great ride on the segways. Can’t wait to do it again in another city! Fantastic intro to the world of Segway!

    We have been on Segway tours all over Europe and the United States...it is the one way to cover lots of sights and get a feel for a city. Our guide in San Francisco was Fima. He asked us if we wanted information or just a few basic highlights...we went with information and he delighted us with history, facts and anecdotes about the city and the attractions....he pointed out those wonderful tidbits that make every city unique. I always enjoy when you are given time to stop and walk around a bit. This tour is well worth your time....This was the real San Francisco treat....no rice needed. Thank you Fima.

    I first would like to start off by saying what a great tour that our guide Alex gave us. She was very detailed and friendly. She also gave us time to explore on our own. It was surprising how easy it was to learn how to ride the segway. Just don't get too confident or you may crash. Overall it was a great experience and we would love to do it again. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND booking a tour.

    We took this tour with our 12 yr old granddaughter. We rode along the waterfront and then climbed hills to reach and ride down Lombard St. we also rode up and down Telegraph Hill (Coit Tower). Our guide, Fima, was the best! He was informative as well as entertaining. We each got individual training and then additional time riding around in front of the office before hitting the road. He took special care to look out for and help the riders new to Segway. His instruction was clear. Would love to do it again!! Don’t hesitate to try this. What a great experience!!
