Paris City Sightseeing Half Day Guided Segway Tour with a Local Guide
Description
Experience Paris in a fun, effortless, and memorable way on a private Segway tour designed around your pace and interests. Unlike large group tours, you'll enjoy a personalized experience with a knowledgeable local guide who shares fascinating stories, local insights, and the history behind the city's most iconic landmarks. A Segway allows you to see much more of Paris than a walking tour while avoiding the crowds and fatigue of covering long distances on foot. You'll have plenty of opportunities to stop for photos, ask questions, and enjoy the city's most beautiful viewpoints. Our tours are available in **45-minute, 90-minute, and 3-hour options**, and **the route varies depending on the duration you choose**. Shorter tours focus on the city's essential highlights, while longer tours include additional famous landmarks and a more in-depth exploration of Paris. Before the tour begins, you can also discuss your preferences with your guide to make the experience even more personal.

Exceptional, had a lot of fun!
Great way to see the city of you’re on a tight timeline
Our tour guide, May, was very sweet and well informed about the different landmarks. This was a very fun experience and I would book again with her.
Great tour good fun . “May” was a great guide and very helpful and informative.
The guide was fantastic. She took the time to teach us how to ride and operate the Segways. She told us the history of the places that we went. It was amazing!
We went for 1.5 hours and had an amazing tour guide who gave us an in depth explanation of each place we stopped at.
Our guide was very patient with us as we figured out how to work the segways, which was much appreciated as one of us had done it several years ago, but it was the others first time. She made sure to ask our preference on stops and how in depth we wanted to go, and we chose to do lots of little stops and were able to get a good lay of the land since it was our first time in Paris. Our guide also offered to take lots of photos of us at the different landmarks which we really appreciated as that isn’t always easy to get traveling as a couple.
Great fun.Excellent guide May.We are afamily of 10 including partners and everyone loved this Segway tour.We highly recommend this tour especially early in your stay in Paris as it shows you a lot of the tourist attractions.
