Exploring On Our Segways - Spent a beautiful morning learning about the deep rich history of The Broadmoor, while on our segways. Happy (Steve) was very, very knowledgeable about The Broadmoor and it was fun listening to all of his stories.
Thank you!

Just do it... It's fun and informative! - Great job Steve "Happy"! Wife and I decided last minute to book this Segway tour and thoroughly enjoyed it with Steve's knowledge and personality. Fellow Texan made it more special sa he could relate to our perspective. Did get cold, but other than that it was great.
