Great time for a family with teens! - We had a terrific time! Miguel was so friendly and funny! He was knowledgeable and charming. Segways are perfect for covering a lot of ground quickly so are good for an overview of central Madrid. And my whole family loves riding them. Very easy to learn how to ride. Takes less than two minutes to feel comfortable and you n total control. This activity is totally worth it. I’d give more stars if I could.

Get to Madrid & get a Segway tour - I was by myself on a guided tour with Alen. He gave a ton of history about old Madrid and shared places I need to see on my next visit. Once learning the Segway, we were off and oh, the sites we saw. I highly recommend this service to those visiting Madrid for the 1st time. The historical information shared was great.

Fun way to see Madrid! - Miguel was an excellent tour guide! Even though everyone in our party knew how to ride a Segway, Miguel went over all of the safety features and made sure everyone was well-versed before we hit the road. He took us to all of the top spots in Madrid and gave us the history. Afterwards, he gave us restaurant Recommendations that turned out to be excellent. Highly recommend this tour.

They see us rollin’, they hatin’ - We were post Camino and some of us were feeling a little worse for wear to get around Madrid. My husband was skeptical of a Segway tour, but very quickly was having a lot of fun cruising around town. This was more fun and better than we expected. Miguel was great.

Great experience - I was travelling with my 2 kids. We booked a tour through the park, but because the park was closed due to the wind, we did a (private) tour through the old town instead. Our guid Chris was wonderful. The segways are very fun to ride.
