Explore the ancient remains at the La Brea Tar Pits in Los Angeles with a modern form of transportation — the Segway! The convenient personal transport vehicle makes it easy to get around this popular and intriguing site and see the remains of prehistoric animals such as mastodons, mammoths and ground sloths. Learn all about the history and scientific significance of the tar pits from your informative guide during your morning or afternoon tour of this off-the-beaten-track attraction.
Join us for a tour of the stunning and mysterious La Brea Tarpits! Ongoing excavations and exhibits titillate the imagination as we will look at actual bone matter, not fossils, from the distant past. Mammoths, Mastodons, Saber-tooth cats, Dire Wolves, American Camels, Giant Ground Sloths, the immense and carnivorous Short-faced Bear, the North American Lion and more will amaze you as you gaze upon a place that claimed so many of them.

We live near the beach and we had spent the weekend down south at Laguna. We love the city and we wanted a city experience and I found this Segway tour. We love electric scooters and thought it would be similar but it was different enough to make it a new experience and zipping through the Wilshire area was awesome! Micah was our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable and friendly! We enjoyed his company and he did a great job keeping us safe! We were celebrating our 19 year anniversary. This turned out to be a perfect activity!
This was our second Segway tour. Having been about 2 years since the last one, I and one daughter were a little tentative but we re-learned the hang of it quickly. Micah was great, answered all of our questions, gave interesting info about various sites and is a stellar picture-taker. Seriously, I expected a hokey pic in front of the lamp posts, and his pic was so perfectly framed. I don't do Instagram but it was Instagram-worthy. I think this particular tour was probably 4 stars. The problem is the trek to La Brea just isn't THAT interesting and we didn't get to go inside the visitor center. La Brea is big and it was nice to zip through the pathways on Segways but there isn't much to see or do from the outside. I like Micah and the Segways were great so I'd just recommend a different destination.
It was very interesting and our tour guide Joel did an excellent job of informing us of the history of Beverly hill
We ended up with only a day and a half in Los Angeles and decided to take the Segway tour of the La Brea Tarpits with the "Another Side of Los Angeles" Segway company. our guide, Cameron was extremely pleasant, very knowledgeable about the history of the tar pits, and Los Angeles in general. It was a very nice way to spend two hours. We hope to return and try some of their other tours in the future.
I booked a segway tour for my parents' anniversary. It was a lovely tour to the Tar Pits which they enjoyed. They got the hang of riding in minutes and went on cruising down Wilshire towards LACMA. We're locals, so this was more of a weekend activity rather than an explorative experience, but there's always stuff to discover along the way. Thanks to Cameron for being fun, accommodating and just great to be around.
