Segway in Newport Beach!
Shop owner was very nice and accommodating, friendly, and informative. Michael the guide was patient and attentive making sure we were comfortable riding the segway. He toured us in places we would not have gone if not for him.

Segways are super fun!
Had a great time. Michael was an excellent and patient instructor but Segways are totally underrated. Not used as much anymore but they are super fun and the tour around Balboa was the best way to do it!

It's a blast! The Segway does all the balancing
If you've never been on Segway before, never fear. My wife doesn't know how to ride a bicycle. She learned how to ride the Segway in about 5 minutes safely in a blocked off parking lot. Mike, our guide was great. He took us down safe alleys and we only did the pedestrian walkways that weren't packed with people. He also pointed out where some famous folks live or used to live. Then he acted as our photographer taking memorable stills and videos. There's a huge playground where we could freestyle, too!
Immediately after, my wife said she wanted to experience Segway again elsewhere.

Great Day
Very prompt, the guide had lots of insight to the area. You will travel a lot further than you would think. The ride down the beach has amazing views and sights. We did the morning tour and the boardwalk was not busy and very easy to navigate.
