Too funny to not take part - Such a fun way to explore the city. Great guide that provides infon about the city, but also time enough for fun. Hour and a half flew by , can only recommend!

Worth it ! - Fantastic concept, better than walking as you. An see places faster. The only issue is that in August Lisbon is crowded and not always easy to slalom around the walkers. Good fun with friends, just riding was exciting ! No pictures as riding this thing and taking pics is dangerous ;-) I was riding more than sightseeing...

Very fun - A great fun way to get around the old city. A slight pain in the pelvic region for some time after the ride, but it was totally worth it 🤣 Hope that it will be possible to buy a sitgo - it would be great fun to own one! 😎 -even more fun if it would run faster 🚀

Great 90 minutes of fun - On my recent visit to Lisbon with our football team (16 adults) i organised a Sitgo tour of the Old town Alfama district. 11 of us presented for this excursion on a lovely Sunday morning at the end of March. I had booked on line and the Sitgo guys were very accommodating as i couldn't give exact numbers. We were given a 10 minute training slot and by 1130 we were off accompanied by our guide Pepe and our camera man Goncalo. It was the best fun trip i had experienced for some time as we wondered off into the old town. Pepe was excellent with all his knowledge of Lisbon and we had time for a quick Chocolate and Liquor stop on our way. The fun was great and we even sang a few verses of song as we enjoyed our sitways. Basically just to explain a bit about the sitway these are a form of Sedgeways but here you are in a sitting position. They are easy to get used too and you'll be up and running in no time.The highest speed is around 16 klms per hour and the hills of the old town were negotiated easily as we made our way as far as the gates of St. George's Castle. Finally i dont think this would work without the excellent input of our Sitgo guides Pepe and Goncalo who kept the whole 90 minutes relaxed and enjoyable and for € 25 money well spent. Thank You guys

Fun way to see some of the city - My teenage daughter and I took the Old Town Tour. Although we had already walked around it, it was really informative and interesting to learn more about the history and buildings in the area. The sitgos were so much fun. We were a little apprehensive at first but they were easy to get the hang of, although my bottom was a little sore af the end! A really fun hour and a half. I would definitely recommend - the reactions of other tourists as we wheeled past also made us laugh!

SUPER FUN - Loved to try the new sitway as segways are usual today. The tour was amazing and it wouldn´t be as fun if we had done it by ourselves! The place was beautiful and the way we took was challenging to ride. really recommend!

Fantastic thoroughly recommend this - We went on the night tour. As it was late in the season there was only my husband and I. The segways are really easy to operate and the tour guide was knowledgeable and fun. We went through the conked streets of the Alfana district up the the Se Cathedral and back down. We stopped for ginja- cherry liqueur in chocolate cups - what’s not to like! I am desperate to do this again.

Have they gone bust? - Similiar to another user I turned up, no one showed tried both numbers (calling and texting) and stayed an hour at a nearby restaurant. Also tried the website. Now trying to get the booking company to refund. Based on the other reviews I'm guessing they've gone bust but still showing as active. Wouldn't the best idea there be to shut down the business with a message and maybe reopen in the future.
