Super fun for the whole family! - If you’ve never taken a Segway tour, I’d highly recommend this one with Aaron. He is full of Galveston history and knowledge and it was a wonderful way to explore the area. We had an absolute blast and will absolutely take this tour again when we visit again.

Very fun! - Our guide was new at giving tours but he did a great job. The training was appropriate and it was actually easy to use. We saw a lot of the city and learned a few new things about Galveston. It was really fun.

Great experience - Aaron was.a fantastic tour guide. He obviously cares deeply about Galveston and it's history and it showed throughout. We got to see parts of the city that we wouldn't have seen otherwise and with a wonderful host

Awesome Segway Tour - Our tour guide was Aaron. He learned why we were visiting Galveston so he could customize our tour to what we wanted to see. He did an awesome job showing us all the island has to offer. We will definitely be coming back for another tour!

Great Experience - Our guide Aaron had great patience showing us how to use our segways, and he had vast thorough knowledge of Galveston history - a true academic historian able to recall names/dates and lead us through a time-line in an engaging fashion. We saw some houses of note, the carved oak trees, the immigration house, emancipation plaza. He recommended the Ocean Star Museum - we went and were glad we did because otherwise we would have missed it. He recommended Katie's Seafood House - ditto. Please take a tour with him.

Tour was great! - Our trip with Aaron was tremendous. We would recommend doing it early in your stay so you will learn of places you want to visit after the tour is completed.

Great History Lesson on Galveston!! - This tour is wonderful! We learned so much about the history of Galveston. Having never been here before, we didn't know anything about it's history and background. Our tour guide Aaron (sp?) was so knowledgeable and very kind and helpful. We also had never been on a Segway before. It took some getting used to but he was so kind and understanding of two older people who had never done this before. Thank you thank you Aaron for a great evening tour of your city of Galveston! Wayne & Dee

So fun! - This was so much fun! Dee was an excellent tour guide and gave us so many cool recommendations for things to do and places to eat in Galveston. I recommend doing this pretty early on in your trip so you'll be able to explore some of the things you learn about. I'd never been on a Segway and didn't have any problems. It was so cool to ride through the Strand, on the seawall, and through the streets of beautiful historical homes. I will definitely be doing this again on my next trip. 🙂
