Fantastic Segway tour all over St Pete waterfront as well as Sunken Gardens. Louisa (aka “Doo “) is a long time local with a wealth of knowledge! Hearing her through a headset made all the difference as we covered 12 miles and could hear her narrate everything we were seeing in real time! She took pictures of us at all the hot spots and was very thorough in making sure we knew how to safely operate the segways (super easy & user friendly)… We saw dolphins, stingrays rays & many species of birds! She gave great tips on restaurants to check out and best parts of town to explore!! Such a great time!! Totally worth the time & money!! We did 10am tour in April.. perfect weather!!
Thank you so much for this wonderful review!! I am so happy hearing how much you enjoyed the entire experience. Hope to see you next time you’re in town.
It was the perfect excursion to learn about the area the segways were so fun I had my 14yr and 17yr and they love it to
So great to hear that the entire family had a fun time riding the Segways. Thank you for your review!
Best Segway tour of the several I have taken. Tour guide (founder & owner) is a font of knowledge. Well worth the cost.
Awww thank you so much for the compliment and wonderful review. Hope to see you both next time you’re in town.
We have been on several of Louisa’s tours and loved them all. Today we did the Eco Segway tour of the Sunken Gardens. So much fun zipping through the downtown and historic sections of St Pete. Louisa’s knowledge of plants and sea life is second to none, and her playful banter is very entertaining. Highly recommend this adventure.
First of all thank you for coming back year after year. And thank you for this wonderful review. I look forward to next March!
Hade a great time. Felt confident operating the Segway. Would recommend. She was very information about the local wildlife and plants.
So wonderful to hear how safe and comfortable you felt on the Segway. I appreciate the recommendations and I’m so happy you enjoyed everything!
This tour is wonderful! Louisa made us feel comfortable from the get-go. We needed training since this was our first time on a Segway. You get to see the shoreline and the city's major tourist attractions. We had narration throughout, especially when we went into the Sunken Garden. Louisa is very knowledgeable about plants! We went through the old section of town with 100-year-old homes that are beautiful We highly recommend this tour, and Louisa as the guide.
Thank you so much for your review! I am so happy to hear how much you enjoyed the tour. I really appreciate your recommendations. Hope to see you next time you’re in town!
It was terrific. She goes over and above for you. The Sunken Gardens tour portion was informative and interesting
Thank you so much for this review. I am so happy you enjoyed everything. Hope to see you next time you’re in town.
Louisa was patient getting us used to the segways until we were all comfortable. Her tour info was really interesting and her plant knowledge of the Sunken Garden was impressive. I would do this tour again,
I’m so happy to hear how much you both enjoyed the tour. It was really a lovely day showing you around this city and Sunken Gardens. Until next time!
Knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate, Doo was a joy to be around as she led us through St. Petersburg! She made sure our experience was one to remember!
I really appreciate your review and kind words. Glad you enjoyed everything!
You MUST go on this tour! It was SO FUN! You get a lot of time on the segway (so fun). We got to see a dolphin in the wild and a manatee! The Sunken Gardens are amazing, and our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable about all of the different plants. She is also a bird whisperer and got the kookaburra talking! Our tour guide recommended an amazing place to eat. She entertained us with detailed history and interesting facts about the area. She was very flexible, and we had many photo opportunities, restroom breaks, and she provided water and sunscreen. This was one of the BEST segway tours I have ever had the privilege to take.
Thank you so much for this wonderful review! I love hearing how much fun you all had. It's always a bonus getting to see all the wildlife that we did. Until next time!
