“Frozen in Frisco”

San Francisco Guided Segway Tour

4/9 found this review helpful

We did the night tour and it was absolutely freezing. Be sure to dress warmly. Riding a Segway is an absolute blast, and the views from the Aquatic Park pier are tremendous, but I was disappointed. After taking the Segway tour of Kansas City, our SF tour guide was disappointing. He was a funny guy, but the tour was sorely lacking in historical, cultural, architectural, and geographical info. Great fun, but poor value for money.

One of the people in our party was not comfortable on the Segway, and opted out of the tour. Their policy is only to offer a 50% refund because she "watched the (safety) video". They charged the full fare, and I'm still waiting for the refund.

Yes it is cold in San Francisco.. generally in the 50's for both our night and day tours. It can also be windy on the waterfront.. We have both warm jackets (in every size) and gloves for use by our guests. Each segway has a handlebar bag to store the jacket if not used by the guests. We do encourage guest to not wear shorts and flip flops plus bring a extra layer to keep the waterfront chill away.

Many of our Segway tours are sold out. Advance reservations are required so that the correct amount of Segways and guides are on hand and ready to go for each customer/ group. We run very small tours with no more than 9 guests. We offer a large discount in the rare case that a guest feels uncomfortable or unsure and does not want to go on the complete tour. All refunds are handled promptly.

We have upgrade both our tour information and radio equipment to make the narration easier to hear and more informative.

Come see us in San Francisco or Sausalito.

what a blast for my husband, 12 and 14 year old children and myself.
Highly recommended for something different and a blast! Easy for anyone to operate and excellent training provided.
One of the highlights of our trip.

“A great bargin...4 hour Segway Tour”

Earlier this year my husband, me and my neice and her boyfriend took a Segway tour in San Francisco. It was a blast. My husband is over 60, I am over 50 and my neice and her friend are 20. We all loved it. We spent about a half hour learning how to ride it. Then we went around for about 3 1/2 hours. We stayed off the hills. The tour was from Fishermans Warf and went along the bay. We had some great views of the bay and the bridge. We stopped along the way for a snack. The guide was really good and told us alot about the city and the area. We all enjoyed it so much that this fall we did the same thing in Washington DC where we live. The best part is that it is only $65 each. I think that is a real bargin for something so cool.

“This Segway tour is a blast and a half! A Must Do”

A friend and I went on a San Francisco Segway tour in July. As first timers to this city, a segway tour was a must! We were guided by Lawrence, who was very easy going and friendly and very informative- especially on the night life in San Fran! The training was first rate.

We'll definitely be recommending Segway tours to our friends and family because it's a worthwhile and memorable experience that we hope to have again in the near future!

p.s Segways were featured on Australia's Big Brother and all our friends got soooooo jealous because they found out we'd already been on one!
