Segway Guided Tour in Lisbon Riverside
Description
Contemplate the idyllic coastline where the Tagus River kisses the Atlantic Ocean and the beautiful monuments and architecture on this Segway tour along the shores of Lisbon. After a quick practice you will be able to drive safely in the streets and we leave to explore the city - learn about the city history and culture as we move around from beautiful square to beautiful square, and enjoy the ride as we drive through the modern docks with much of the nightlife environment, vintage cafes and lively bars scattered in colorful streets. Gliding through the new bike paths along the coast, we will reach the main luxury marina of Lisbon - an awesome spot under the famous Red Bridge across the Tagus river where you can take your time to rest and take beautiful scenic pictures with your group.

Thank you kindly for your comment, it was a pleasure to explore the city with you, you made everything easier for us and we all hope you had a great time in Lisbon. Highest regards and safe travels
Great way to see Lisbon highlights without hiking the hills on foot! Do the city tour for amazing vistas.
Much appreciated for your comment, it was a delight to share the experience with you! Highest regards
Guides were great in showing us how to use the segways! We ran into rain but that didn't stop us...ponchos packed for everyone.
Muito obrigado! Much obliged for your words, we hope you had a great time in Lisbon and see you soon for more Segway adventures! High regards
David the guide was great. He gave us some time to practice and took pictures and videos for us. Then he led us through the old town and made a few stops with in-depth explanations of the sites. We have a great time.
We all hope you had a great time in Lisbon, and you'll come back for more adventures on Segway! Stay safe and happy trails
Great fun. Wonderful way to see some of the sights. David was very knowledgeable about the history, architecture and culture. Highly recommended. And the pastel de nada were pretty good too.
Thank you so kindly for your comment, it was a pleasure to show some of the best spots in Lisbon, hope you had a great time in the city! High regards
We started off as first-time Segway riders and at the end of the 2 hour session we were tackling some of Lisbon's steepest hill.s Cristiano was excellent. As well as being a great instructor, he also gave us a history lesson on Portugal and Lisbon.
Thank you for your feedback, it was a delight to show you guys around town and share the best experiences in Lisbon. See you soon for more Segway adventures! Highest regards!
We booked 2 hours private tour, Chris was our guide, really nice and patient- exceptionally cautious when comes to security. We have done the small tour alongside the river and back with a glimpse of Alfama quarter. I would recommend to come 15 minutes in advance because otherwise you are gone shorten your trip. Otherwise great way to explore Lisbon that has a lot of hills 😀 I recommend 👌
Obrigado! Thanks for the wonderful feedback, we always try to make our tours the best experiences possible and we hope you had a great stay in Lisbon and visit us again as soon as possible! High regards
This was one of the best things we did in Lisbon. David was excellent, taught us quickly how to ride segways, made us feel and ease and showed us some lovely sights we would have otherwise missed. My kids are 12 and 15, they loved it.
Much obliged for your comment, hope you had a great time in Portugal and enjoyed your stay! Happy travels!
SO glad we did this! We booked this last minute, the day before we left for Lisbon. We wanted an activity for the Sunday, and chose a 10:00 start time. Apparently, Sunday mornings in Lisbon are very quiet, as we were the only 2 people on the tour. David was our guide, from Euro Segways, and made the tour both interesting and fun. The segways are pretty easy to get the hang of, with very little learning curve. David gave a very thorough safety briefing before he let us zoom around and practice before we hit the streets. He even took pictures and videos with our phone as we practiced. We stopped at all the hot spots for explananations, even getting off the segway a few times to walk around, and take pictures. Our only regret was not booking the tour for 3 hours instead of 2. If the group were any larger than just the 2 of us, the extra hour would have definitely been a good idea.
Thank you kindly for your words, it only encourages us to provide our service better every day. Hope your time in Lisbon was above expectation and give us a call when you're back in Lisbon! High regards and safe travels!
It was an awesome expierence with my family Roy was a great guide very informative. Very safe and learned a lot
Much appreciated for your words, it really means a lot to us to deliver an experience of Lisbon that our guests will always remember! It was a pleasure riding with you, and we all hope to see you back soon for more adventures on Segway!
