wonderful in every way.

Review by: Sue	May 2012
Fabulous! However, peole should know that segways are tricky sometimes, especially getting off. We had 4 of 6 fall - still worth it! Wonderful guide.

Review by: crystalh230	May 2012
Very fun!!!! Best way to see Paris. Our tour guide was young man from US and wasn't extrememly knowledgable but had the main points down. But this tour is great on it's own to see the major sites. Recommend doing this when you first arrive in Paris to get your bearings and a highlight of the city.

Review by: David S	May 2012
Definitely one of the highlights of our time in Paris. Our Kiwi instructer/guide Moko was excellent. After 20 mins or so to get the hang of them we had nearly three hours scooting around the main sites of Paris with plenty of stops for photos. Lots of tourists taking photos of us as well.

Review by: Todd P	May 2012
In addition to the tour, Segways are just fun to ride! And our guide gave us plenty of time to just ride around as we pleased in the Eiffel Tower park. Perhaps too much time, maybe we should have spent some of that seeing other sights not too far away like Notre Dame or the Opera house. We had the only guide whose mother tongue was not English, but French. As an American, I had no problem with his English but I'm not sure how much my Russian wife understood. He (Carl) was very knowledgeable in history and had a lot of interesting commentary.

This was the highlight of our Paris trip. It only took a few minutes to learn how to ride the segway and our guide was great. She was very knowledgeable and her English was perfect and that really helped us understand her.

Review by: Janet M	May 2012
This tour was brilliant. Cannot praise our guide Moko enough. He as approachable and willing to listen to everything. Never been on Segway before but he made it so easy. Effortless way of seeing a lot of Paris for little effort. Highly recommended to others in our travels

Review by: Bryan B	May 2012
An excellent tour. I didn't expect riding a segway would be so much fun! Our guide was really friendly, fun and knowledgeable about Paris history. We definitely recommend this tour!

Review by: Joel R	May 2012
Fabulous fun and knowledge

Review by: Julia F	May 2012
This was a lot of fun. Segways are a lot of fun and a great way to see a city. We saw the key sites and our friendly guide was knowledgable in all the key places of interest. You don't need to have used a segway before. There is some practice time in a safe area before the tour begins, but it's very easy to pick up. Really great fun. If there's a segway tour to be done in the future, I'm there!

Review by: Brian C	May 2012
We were worried that the weather wouldn't cooperate, but it did and we had a blast. We flew in late Saturday night and took the Segway tour Sunday morning and highly recoomend it. Saved our flight weary legs and got to preview Paris for our week there. We even booked the Versailles bike tour right afterwards.

Review by: Andrea M	May 2012
Had a great time, lots of fun, Preston, our guide, was informative and amusing in just the right balance. Would thoroughly recommend it. Loved the Segway, surprisingly easy to master. Whole event took about three and a half hours.

Review by: Mirani	May 2012
A great way to start a visit to Paris. Gave us an excellent overview. Tour guide was friendly and informative.

Review by: Mona Line M	May 2012
Great tour! Would not recommend in the rain though ... we were soaked! Confirming 24 hours prior is inconvenient. We did not have a phone in the apartment we rented and did not bring a cell as it wouldn't work outside Canada. Using a pay phone you need to buy a 7.50 euro phone card. Worked out anyway, I stopped a guy on the street and he was kind enough to let me use his cell. Enjoyed the tour, covered a lot of ground and the guide was a lot of fun (Johnny)! I recommend highly!

Review by: mary k	May 2012
Excellent tour and excellent tour guide. Very professional bur also personable.

Review by: Michelle D	April 2012
Excellent, fun and very informative guide - highly recommended. After a few minutes the Segways become intuitive and you feel like you are speeding along - a great way to see the central sights.

Review by: Brian S	April 2012
This was a great tour. Our guide was very informative and made us all feel comfortable on the Segway before beginning. The Segway is a lot easier to ride than I had expected. You start off slow and steady and eventually it just comes naturally. This is a great way to cover Paris in a day and gives time to return to attractions in which you are more interested. I highly recommend this tour.

Review by: Terry W	April 2012
Nothing compares with seeing Paris on a Segway. The guide was knowledgeable and provided numerous historical perspectives as we stopped at various monuments and historical sites. I highly recommend the Segway tour the next time you're in Paris.

Review by: Emmanuel G	April 2012
Too centerec on the Eiffel Tower and Invalides, which are near their office. Guide had much to say about Napoleon but much less about Eiffel. Due to lengthy commentaries on the nearby attractions, the tour didn't reach Notre Dame, the Latin Quarter, or the Grands Boulevards. Would have preferred a tour without commentary that covered more territory - this is after all what Segways are for.

Review by: William R	April 2012
Good fun, great guide. Few too many people in the group.

Review by: Ed K	April 2012
It was the highlight of our days in Paris. We learned a great deal about Paris and were able to see so much. The Segways were very fun and easy to ride and our guide, Stephanie, made it a truly enjoyable experience. My only suggestion is to dresss warmly, hats & gloves, if it's going to be cool.

Review by: Brian M	April 2012
The highlight of our 2 weeks in Paris great guide and great fun

Review by: schnitz	April 2012
LOVED IT. Great way to see the city and learn about Paris. The guide was good and very helpful. So worth it!

Review by: Andy	April 2012
What an excursion! The tour guide was great, knowledgable, but the Segways were a hit. Highly recommend this to others.

Review by: Marilyn E	March 2012
Best part of my whole trip. Fun learning to drive a Segway. Very knowledgable and fun guide with great approach to sharing the history of Paris and its highlights.

Review by: islandgirl6909	March 2012
To anyone with a limited amount of time to spend visiting Paris- you must take a Segway tour! It is the fastest way to see and learn about Paris. We had a great time (our 5th Segway experience). Our guide was incredible! 5 Stars for sure!

Review by: Sandra R	March 2012
Absolutely a must do while in Paris. Our guide was superior. The tour was fantastic. Our weather wasn't the greatest on the day of our tour, but zipping around on the Segway, visiting the sites, and the historical information provided by the tour guide, it didn't really matter. All in all: again, this is a must do when in Paris.

Review by: David G	March 2012
So much fun.(except for the rain) Our guide Pete was excellent, very knowledgeable.

Review by: Alan M	March 2012
FANTASTIC! Shop around for Discounts but don't be put off- even if you have to pay full price- the Segway tour is worth every cent! Safety equipment and riding instruction provided before our group of seven people (all ages from 12 to 60+, including ourselves as a 50 something year old married couple) set off. We were pleasantly surprised how quickly we got used to them, even though one of us can't even ride a bicycle! During our 3 and a half hour tour of Paris we got to see several interesting sights, stopping off for our guide to provide all the information we wanted, although most of us would have been quite happy just riding around on the Segway's. It was such good fun, and a really innovative and novel way to travel. The tour would have taken all day if we had tried to walk the route- and no aching feet at the end of it! Highly recommended- we'll be looking out for other similar tours on our next city trip :-)

Review by: days	February 2012
Top tour, the day we went was a bit cold for riding around on the segways but the whole tour start to finish was excellent. So glad that we did it

Review by: E L D	February 2012
It was our first experience on Segways and a surprise for my guests who were celebrating my "big" birthday with me. After a few initial reservations we had a wonderful time. Simon was a brilliant guide, entertaining and informative. We would certainly recommend it to others visiting Paris. A bicycle bell on the Segway would be useful in some of the busy pedestrian areas. I wonder if our tour of the Paris sites is the only one you do by Segway. Is there the possibility of doing a tour of the more unusual areas of Paris or maybe "Secret" Paris - areas which the regular tourist might miss or not know about. Brenda and Lawrie Dilks.

Review by: Mickey M	February 2012
This was a great tour and the tour guide gave a great introduction to the highlights of Paris by Segway. It was minus 10 Celsius (about 15 F) and the Segway wind chill was greater! The gloves provided were thicker than the ones that I had brought and this helped a little. We did this tour at the start of a stay in Paris and I would recommend it, along with the expert guidance, as a good way to orient to the city.

Review by: Gregory G S	January 2012
A great way to see Paris. Terrific instructor/guide.

Review by: Diney	December 2011
We did this tour the first day we arrived in Paris. We thought it would be a good way to learn the lay of the land. Our tour guide Megan was fantastic, we covered so much of the city and her knowledge of the history of each location was excellent. Her vibrant and enthusiatic personality made it that much more fun and exciting and for us novices and over 50 couple she made learning to ride very easy. Highly recommend it as an awesome way to see a lot of sites and gain knowledge of the history. It defintely made planning the rest of our itineray much easier. Thank you Megan and Fat Tire.

The Paris City Segway Tour was the highlight of my two day stay in Paris. " Simply the best '

Review by: Susan P	December 2011
Unbelievable fun for us and the teenage boys! The tour guide was great (he was from New Zealand!) and riding Seqways was way more fun than we ever imagined. Paris is so big to walk around and we saw so much this way in our short stay.

Review by: Linh and Van	December 2011
My husband allowed me to plan our honeymoon and I wanted to do something different on our HM, so I chose this tour over the vespa tour. He was a little skeptical of what it would be like, especially because neither of us has ever been on a segway, but it turned out to one of the highlights of our 10 day trip to Europe! We would recommend this tour as a good "overview" of most of Paris, which was what I was looking for. My husband and I just followed up the next day to the places that were of interest to us that we notated on the tour. Also, the little cafe experience in the middle of the tour was nice as well. We have vowed to try to find a segway tour in every city we visit in the future because it makes the tour fun and we can cover alot of places in the few hours. It is very nice to not have to walk around all of these places--because you will do alot of that already on the rest of your stay in Paris! It got very cold throughout the day, so definitely bring another layer because you feel the wind more while on the segway! We actually did the 2:30pm tour but would recommend doing the earlier tour because it gives you a chance to visit Commerce St (which is very close by), which has alot of shops and a few restaurants! Lastly, bring gloves!! We actually bought them at the shop that you sign in at for the tour--and the best couple of Euros spent!! Enjoy!!

Review by: Lee-Ann B	November 2011
Fantastic fun - if you haven't done this before - do it. Segway leader was a young american girl with a great sense of humour and great instructor. Excellent way to see parts of Paris and traffic will courtesly give way to you crossing the roads. We stopped half way for lunch (not included in price) but good food at restaurant and great to relax before going on. We just wanted to go again. Highly recommended.

Review by: Jagdeep W	November 2011
Lot of fun. The actual tour is about 3 hours therefore no time given to take pictures

Review by: Maritoni D	November 2011
It was great to be able to see the city so quickly via Segway. The tour gude was great, but sometimes it seemed he was making up some of the facts he was telling us, such as periodical art designs. Also, since we were passing by places so quickly, I wasn't able to discern what I was looking at. Although, it was a LOT of fun.

Review by: kathryn f	November 2011
great fun. Felt like a rock star with everyone ogling! Coffee stop delightful

Review by: Margaret M	November 2011
My husband and I loved it. It was beyond awesome. Why would anyone want to walk anywhere? Our guide Scott was informative and very funny. I would highly recommended to everyone. Even someone like me who doesn't have a good sense of balance. The hardest part was to step up one step to get on and step down one step to get off. Easy. The Segway balances itself. Cool. And I'm pushing 60.

Review by: IRMA P	October 2011
my husband and i loved it . you have to try . it was fun!

Review by: Mark S	October 2011
One of the best, most fun experiences you could ever try (two over 50's had an absolute ball)._br/_ The guide gave a great, fun commentary throughout the tour although 4 hours is not enough._br/_ The route chosen gives a great view of the really significant tourist destinations, but with a very different perspective. _br/_ We will look to "segway" around each city we visit in future travels.

Review by: Ronald M	October 2011
Segway tour itself was great fun. However the 1/2 mile walk to the Segway store was not. Seems that we could have found a place to meet that was much closer.

had a great time....bob

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	July 2010
This was the best experience ever! Tour guide and tour company was very accommodating and knowledgeable!

Review by: Brian W, United States of America	July 2010
It was amazing! From the star everything was well planned and orchestrated. Very thorough training on the Segway, great guide we had Fletcher from Texas to a great lunch at an awesome cafe! Got a great overview of Paris and some awesome pictures!

Review by: Craig B, United States of America	July 2010
Even though I fell off the Segway twice, I enjoyed this trip a lot. It's a great way to see a city. I want to do it again.

Review by: Michael T, Australia	July 2010
a fantastic experience! Emma's commentary engaged our two teenagers, and they thought it was 'awesome'.
