Having done a fair bit of segwaying before, I was excited to try the advanced tour in San Francisco to test out my skills on the crazy hills! The tour was a small one - actually just the two of us with a guide - but the guide was excellent and soon realised that we were more interested in trying the most extreme hills possible rather than seeing much of the history of the city. Nevertheless, she was informative and entertaining throughout - and particularly good with instructing us on our segways and giving us techniques to conquer the hills. We actually made it back to base a little early, so she took us on a bonus lap of the wharf before we finished - overall, an excellent tour and I had a lot of fun! Definitely recommended if you're looking for an advanced segway experience.

Brandon made a big difference in this tour. It was a challenging one but his training and tips on how to ride the hills were spot on! I particularly enjoyed all the trivia I learned about my favorite city: San Francisco. He had many interesting stories to tell and made the tour quite unique. The company needs to invest in better radio equipment though. His radio stopped transmitting toward the end of the tour. Brandon was prepared with additional batteries but it wasn't a battery issue. I think the radio was just not doing a good job and missed some of the fun narrations he was giving us. Good thing it happened toward the end, otherwise would have been a big disappointment. Brandon deservers a lot of credit for making this tour fun and I'm planning on taking another one of his tours on my next visit this upcoming February.

My ear bud gave out and was staticky for most of trip. I gave up because it was screeching in my ear so I missed out on a good portion of the narration. Chelsea couldn't fix the problem.

Brandon did a superb job. My family whines about all physical activities so the Segway was great. Fun time even for teenagers

Loved Eli as tour guide. His concern for our safety was always top priority. When we were having trouble hearing him, he asked his colleagues to bring a new radio pack, which they brought to our rest stop at Coit Tower. He took lots of pictures of us, and was great fun and very informative. We LOVED the "graduation" ceremony at the end of the tour, with our certificates and pins. Way cool! This tour was exhilirating and educational. Thanks for providing a great, safe experience at a very competitive price.
