The idea of getting around on a Segway was initiatlly a bit daunting, but we were all pleasantly surprised how quickly we adapted to the technology and gained confidence. Within 15 minutes of use I was racing my 16 year old daughter at maximum speed! It was the highlight of our time in San Francisco.

Friendly and patient instructors made for positive outlook during training, even if it took a while for some of the group members to get used to the machines. However, at one point, my mom was questioned about whether she was able to take the tour because of her initial difficulty maneuvering, which caused her to worry and almost get the 50% refund for opting out of the tour. Once convinced by everyone else in the group to just go ahead, she was perfectly fine and had a great time. She commented that had she taken the instructor's advice and given up, she would've regretted it since the whole experience turned out to be so easy and extremely fun. Based on this, I would hope that the instructors are able to put a little more faith in the intuitive nature of how the machine operates. I understand the need for caution, but sometimes a little encouragement is all we need during the learning process to catch on and cross the threshold.

This is a wonderful way to see the sights of San Francisco! The tour takes you through the picturesque waterside, and up to North Beach where you have an opportunity for a gelato. The return route highlights the Marina district, and takes you directly through the most picturesque part of the embarcadero. The guides are friendly and knowlegable, and the Segway machines are top quality. Your safety is paramount, and the guides make sure you are thoroughly trained and ready for your segway adventure before you set out to explore this wonderful city! One of our favorite things we've ever done on tour!!

If U R doing the SF tour in summer, do it early (e.g. 9AM). Less traffic/crowds & U get to visit a couple more points of interest on Fisherman's Wharf.

Great way to see the wharf and North Beach. When else will you ride a Segway? Definitely worthwhile.
