<p>…Twin Cities:</p>
<p>Try the segway tour in Minneapolis. It leaves from a historic part of the city, travels along the Mississippi River, crosses over the river on an old railway (now pedestrian) bridge into downtown, etc. Very cool!</p>
<p>H and d just did a segway tour last week in DC…they try it everywhere we go if we can find it!! glad to see the idea is spreading across the country…</p>
<p>I did Toronto on segway. I agree, it’s a great way to see cities you visit.</p>
<p>did the segway tour downtown Kansas City last fall. Great!</p>
<p>Trying to imagine a Segway tour of Seattle… keep imagining me splayed out on my back trying to go up the hills, or reaching terminal velocity racing through red lights hurtling toward the sound.</p>
<p>Off topic, but years ago one of my DDs and I were at a mall with Segway mall cops and passed one. I pointed that direction and said “That looks so fun, I’d really like to try that”. DD looked stricken and somewhat ill. Several awkward seconds later I realized she had missed the mall cop and thought I was gesturing at the display in the window at Fredrick’s of Hollywood…</p>
<p>When I was sent to Atlanta for business my firm set me up with a Segway tour. I got lucky… I was supposed to be part of a “bachelorette” group (as a solo, got added to their group) but the “girls” were too hung over to make it, so it was me, and the guide. I caught on to the Segway quickly and he took me off the usual route since we had a ton of extra time. It was a blast and I have talked up the concept to many friends.</p>
<p>Sounds so cool, will add it to the next time H and I visit a strange city.</p>
<p>We did a Segway tour of Coronado when we visited San Diego over spring break and had a wonderful time. It was so easy to operate - became almost intuitive. It did get a little bouncy (especially over grass) and I started getting tired of standing for an hour but am delighted to have had the opportunity. We started by the ferry landing and went all the way to the Hotel Del and back. Great views of the bridge - we went right under it. DH, DS, and myself were the only ones signed up so we had a private tour.</p>
<p>^^^ We just did a two hour Segway tour of Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. It was such a blast. What a great way to see that part of the city and the views were spectacular. There’s only one authorized tour in the park - a much better place to do it than in the more common Fisherman’s Wharf area.</p>
