“We loved the scenery we were exposed to and enjoyed the ease and efficiency of segway travel. We didn’t care for the guide. He spoke very quickly and was difficult to understand. Additionally, we prefer information about the things we are seeing and the city. But we received mostly personal views and anecdotes. Also, the meeting place was difficult to locate and looked like a garage in someone’s backyard. Just a jumble of segways and clutter. Not a good look. Did not instill confidence.”
