Informative, Safe & Fun
Our tour was very fun. Easy to operate. My wife was a little fearful ahead of time, but did well and loved it. Our guide did a great job of communicating with good humor.

Excellent experience and great tour guide
We are family of 5 and 3 of us have never ride on a Segway before, Joseph the instructor was super patience with each of us and allow time for us to train before heading to old town. He was professional, knowledgeable and super friendly. Joseph is a great trainer for Segway plus a very good tourguide. We got the best of both World. Thank you, Joseph! We will be back!

Instructive and fun
It 'was a fun way to discover Genoa, the guide is nice and professional, wandering with the segways makes a bit 'boys back, if you have time I recommend the 2.5-hour tour, with the one hour you almost mind getting off at the end, even if it is still long enough to appreciate the experience.

Have a blast with Matt through beautiful Genova
Matt was delightful, informed, kind and created such a fun experience for my mother and I. He shared so much history and personal experience along the way. He took his time to teach us first time segwayers and was super encouraging. We got to experience so much of Genova and were able to go back to places using the paths he laid out for us. Honestly such a unique and effective way to tour a city. And if you are the people who tend to do a hop on hop off tour then use it as a way to later further explore certain sites, skip it and do a Segway tour instead because you get a much more personal experience and get up close and personal with the sites. Please take the opportunity with Matt, you will love it!
