Great tour. Excellent initial instruction for the members of our group who had never ridden a Segway before. Plenty of warm up time on the Segway prior to leaving on the tour. The guide (she was the director of marketing but I forgot her name) was very knowledgeable and easy to listen to. We got to see Halifax on a much more personal level than a bus or taxi tour. Absolutely would do it again and would recommend it to anyone.
You keep pestering me to leave a review but insist that I be wordy. It was a very good tour but I don’t want to make it up in 100 characters. Stop that, and I will provide a nice, short review.
So fun and informative! Tour guide was great! Would highly recommend. Not hard to do and a great way to enjoy the waterfront.
We had a great time with Segway Nova Scotia while visiting Halifax. We had never been on Segways before and really wanted to try them. The staff were all exceptionally friendly and professional. First of all, we were given a brief training on how to stop, turn and go over bumps. We also got to select our helmets, and there were some fun options. I selected the squirrel helmet, while my husband selected the shark helmet. Ben was our guide, and he was terrific. It just happened that my husband and I were the only ones in the group, so Ben provided us with a great tour, describing the various sites, always checking that we were ok, and stopping for photo shoots. Ben was extremely personable and friendly, and he answered all our questions and shared many interesting facts about the city. It was a great way to tour the Halifax shoreline, and loads of fun. If you are in Halifax and you're looking for a fun, professional Segway tour, you won't regret choosing Segway Nova Scotia.
A great way to explore and learn about the history of the area! The introduction to the vehicle and to the history of the area is wonderful!
Hi Caren, Thank you so much for joining us! We're so glad you had a great time and learned a bit about our amazing city! Enjoy the rest of your trip!
Easier than I thought it would be and I didn't fall down or run into anyone. Great experience! Fun guides!
Hi there, We're so glad you had a great experience! We definitely aim to have people not fall down or run into anyone. Training is a top priority for safety and so everyone is comfortable and has a great time! Thank you for the great review!
It’s a great 1-hour tour around the harbor area. It was informative and at a leisurely pace. It’s a neat way to get around! They take the time to get you comfortable with using the Segway before you head out for the tour. The training provided has left me confident to do this type of tour in other cities. Thanks Spence!!
Hi Shelley, Thanks for joining us! We're so glad you had a great time with Spencer on tour. We thing Segways are the best way to get around for sure. We do like to focus on training until everyone in the group is comfortable and feels safe so it's great to hear that you feel that and that you'll keep doing Segway tours where you travel!
Fun and easy to learn. Was a little shorter than expected, but my knees were thankful. The water bottles were not sealed.
Hi Gail, Thanks for the review. We're glad you had a great time. Sorry to hear you found the bottles were not sealed. The bottles that we buy don't have the sound of a crack when opening but they are fortunately sealed. We absolutely would never re-use water bottles between tours. We hope you still had an awesome time with us and in our fantastic city.
Jay was an amazing tour guild. Segways were way easier than I expected and Jay topped it off to an unforgettable trip!!! Highly recommend !
