Was ist ein Segway?

Allen Körperbewegungen folgt er leicht und mühelos. Er kann sogar auf dem Punkt kreiseln. Bereits nach wenigen Fahrbewegungen fühlt man sich sicher und genießt diese Bewegungsform des Schwebens. Der Körper reagiert intuitiv auf die Fahrmöglichkeiten. Der Segway präsentiert sich als Fortbewegungsmittel der Zukunft. Kernstück des Segway® Human Transporter (HT) ist eine Technologie namens "dynamische Stabilisierung", die hier zur Anwendung kommt, sie balanciert das Fahrzeug selbständig aus. Weiterlesen »

'What a great way to experience such a beautiful city. Dresden is such a special place and Carola did a fantastic job sharing all of her wonderful historical knowledge. Highly recommend, and cannot wait to come back for round 2!'

'Regardless of where you and/or your family maybe, if you have plans on visiting Dresden, do on a Segway Tour with Carola and Torsten. Great hosts and very knowledgeable about the city. Not to mention seeing it on a Segway. Do yourself a favour and book a tour of this historic city. The Briggs family did and we are going to do it again, next time for a longer tour!'

'If you are like us and you only have a day in Dresden, this is the answer. Carola will take you around and share her historical knowledge with you. She lets you walk where the Segways can’t go in and as a bonus, she takes pictures of your family with your phone. Carola and Torsten are great and make sure everyone is comfortable. We highly recommend this tour!'

'We had a great time with Seg-City. We felt safe on the Segways and had tons of fun. The kids loved it. Carola was a fabulous guide and we saw the most important sights of Dresden. She also made additional suggestions about what to do in Dresden with kids. A great way to see the city!'

'The tour was wonderful, and we learned a good amount about Dresden. The views were great, and the only way to see everything in such a short time is the Segway. 10/10 would do it again. Carola and her husband, Torsten were wonderful people! They were great guides and very very lovely people! They were very helpful in operating the segways. Carola does the English tour and she speaks very well.'

'We feel very lucky for having had the chance to do a Segway tour with Ms. Carola. She is very enthusiastic, kind, funny, and knows a lot about the city and its history. The Segway is an outstanding and easy way to go around the city. We feel confident in strongly recommending Seg-City-Dresden!'

The Complete Guide to Segway Tours: Safety, Tipping, and Expert Advice

Gliding through a new city aboard a futuristic-looking Segway is an unforgettable way to explore exciting destinations. As wonderful as these tours can be, many first-timers have questions about what to expect and how to prepare.

As someone who has led over 100 Segway tours in 3 different cities, let me share my insider expertise to ensure you have an amazing experience!

In this comprehensive guide, I‘ll cover everything from tipping etiquette, weight limits, safety gear, choosing a tour company, and much more. Consider me your personal Segway concierge – let‘s get rolling!

An Introduction to Segway Tours

For those unfamiliar, a Segway tour involves following a guide as you roll through parks, neighborhoods, waterfronts and other sights on these cool two-wheeled vehicles.

Tours are typically 1.5 to 3 hours and offered in most major tourist destinations. Popular spots include:

  • Washington DC
  • San Francisco

Segways allow you to cover more ground than walking, while learning from an informative guide. My tours stop frequently for photos and commentary about landmarks.

It‘s a peaceful way to experience a new place and great for families or groups. Now let‘s get into everything you need to know before booking your tour!

Should You Tip Your Segway Tour Guide?

One of the most common questions I get is whether tipping your guide is expected. The answer is yes!

As with any tour guide, hairstylist, or food delivery driver, tipping 15-20% of the total tour cost per person is customary .

For example, on my $50 San Francisco tour, I recommend $8-$10 per rider as a tip.

Factors to consider when deciding how much to tip include:

  • Length of tour – For tours over 2 hours, tip toward 20%
  • Group size – On a private tour, tip at the higher end
  • Service quality – Excellent guides deserve extra gratitude!

I recommend tipping your guide in cash rather than on a card for privacy. Hand it discreetly upon conclusion and thank them for a great time!

Now that we‘ve covered tipping, let‘s discuss how to choose the right tour company.

Choosing the Best Segway Tour Company

While there are many tour operators to pick from, here are the key factors I consider when choosing:

  • Safety record – Ensure no major incidents and guide certification
  • Segway model – Newer models have better handling and safety
  • Group size – Smaller groups (6-12 riders) allow personalized attention
  • Price – Compare similar tour durations and locations
  • Guide expertise – Look for experienced, enthusiastic guides
  • Cancellation policy – Flexibility if plans change

I always check online reviews to hear directly from past riders about their experiences.

Below is a comparison of popular Segway tour companies in a few top destinations:

No matter who you book with, look for guides certified by the International Institute of Tourism or similar organizations. This ensures proper training.

Next, let‘s go over what to wear and bring.

How to Dress for Your Segway Tour

To safely ride a Segway, your clothing and footwear choices are important:

✅ Flat closed-toe athletic shoes or sneakers

❌ No heels, sandals, flip-flops

✅ T-shirts, shorts, pants, jeans

❌ Avoid overly loose/flowing clothes that could get caught

Bring layers for sun, wind, rain, and temperature changes

  • Phone holder
  • Water bottle

Avoid baggy clothes that could get tangled. Leave the ballgowns and wedges at home!

With the right outfit, you‘ll be stylishly gliding through the city.

Segway Tour Requirements: Weight, Age, Safety

To keep riders of all ages safe, Segway tour companies have a few restrictions:

Weight Limits

  • Maximum weight : 220-260 lbs depending on location
  • Minimum weight : 100 lbs

Provide your accurate weight when booking to ensure the Segway can handle it. Lighter riders may need a different model.

Age Minimum

  • Most tours require riders to be at least 12-16 years old .
  • Younger children are often prohibited for safety reasons.

Safety Gear

  • Helmet required – Provided onsite
  • Closed toe shoes
  • No alcohol or drug use beforehand

Following the rules ensures fun for all!

Helpful Tips for Seniors and Pregnant Riders

Segway tours are great for all ages, but I recommend a few extra precautions for seniors and pregnant riders:

  • Consult your doctor about physical health requirements
  • Take it slow and be mindful of bumps
  • Use extended handlebars for comfort
  • Consider a private tour with extra assistance

Pregnant Riders

  • Consult doctor about risks, especially in 3rd trimester
  • Pay extra attention to balance
  • Stop to take breaks as needed
  • Avoid zig-zagging or sharp turns
  • Drink plenty of water

As long as you take it slow and easy, it can be a safe, enjoyable time!

Kids on Segway Tours – Safety Tips and Advice

Segway tours are exciting for kids ages 12 and up (depending on location). To ensure junior riders have fun while staying safe:

  • Verify age and size limits for children riders
  • Make sure kids are mature enough to follow safety rules
  • Have kids wear properly fitted helmets
  • Don‘t let kids speed ahead or lag behind the group
  • Ensure kids do not play on Segways outside tour times
  • Consider a family private tour for personalized attention
  • Bring band-aids and first-aid essentials just in case

With patience and preparation, Segway tours make for lifelong memories!

Expert Tips for the Best Segway Tour Experience

After leading hundreds of Segway tours, I‘ve gathered a few pro tips:

💡 Take things slow until you get comfortable steering

💡 Lean gently into turns – don‘t jerk the handlebar

💡 Follow the guide‘s instructions precisely

💡 Wave to pedestrians and share smiles

💡 Stop fully before mounting or dismounting

💡 Ask your guide questions whenever you like

💡 Stay with the group at all times rather than zipping ahead

By following these expert pointers, you‘ll ride like a pro in no time!

What You Should NOT Do On a Segway Tour

While Segway riding is very safe, tour companies prohibit certain behaviors:

🚫 No carrying passengers or bags on your Segway

🚫 No horseplay, racing, or stunts

🚫 No drinking alcohol before or during tours

🚫 No headphones or phone use while riding

🚫 No riding over curbs, stairs, or obstacles

🚫 No customized routes – stay with the group

Think safety first and use good common sense. Enjoy the ride while showing courtesy to guide, riders, and pedestrians alike.

Frequently Asked Segway Tour Questions

Here are answers to some of the most common questions I get from riders:

Do they weigh you before the tour?

You will need to provide your weight when booking to ensure you meet the requirements. Guides may ask for confirmation onsite.

Can you wear dresses, skirts, or heels?

Yes to dresses and skirts – just avoid overly long or flowing ones. But heels and wedges are unsafe. Stick to flat, athletic shoes.

Is there an age minimum or maximum?

Most tours require riders to be age 12-16+. There is generally no upper age limit, but health factors may come into play.

Can two people ride one Segway?

No, two riders on one Segway is prohibited. Each person must ride their own for safety and balance reasons.

How fast do Segways go?

Segways reach top speeds of about 12 mph, but tours average 6-8 mph based on terrain and safety factors. Guides limit speed.

Can you ride Segways while pregnant?

It‘s possible, but not recommended as a precaution. Consult your doctor about associated risks before booking a tour while pregnant.

And those are the key questions I‘m asked all the time! Feel free to ask your tour guide any others.

The Open Road Awaits!

Hopefully this guide has equipped you with all the must-know information to make your Segway tour an incredible experience.

From tipping etiquette to safety rules, you now have the confidence to book that bucket list tour and glide your way through scenic spots in style.

When you feel the wind in your hair as you roll through a landmark-filled park or buzz down a busy city street, it‘s impossible not to smile.

Thanks for listening to my Segway wisdoms. Never stop exploring this beautiful world – I‘ll see you on the next tour!

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.

Moscow metro tour: architectural styles of the subway.

segway tour erzgebirge

Duration: 2 hours

Categories: Culture & History, Sightseeing

This metro tour of Russia’s capital and most populous city, Moscow, is your chance to get a unique insight into the beautiful and impressive architecture of the city's underground stations. Admire their marble walls and high ceilings representing Stalin's desire for glory after World War 2, and see first-hand how the interiors change with the rise of new political eras. Your guide will lead you through the complex network, which is one of the most heavily used rapid transit systems worldwide, with over two billion travelers in 2011.

Opened in 1935, Moscow’s underground system, now 190 miles (305 km) long with 185 stations, is today one the largest and most heavily used rapid transit systems in the world. On this Moscow metro tour, discover the impressive architecture of Moscow’s underground stations and learn how they reflect the Soviet era.

Getting around by metro, your local guide will take you through parts of Moscow’s infamous history. Stop at stations built during the time of the USSR (Soviet Union) that are praised as one of the most extravagant architectural projects from Stalin’s time. After World War 2, he was keen on establishing Stalinist architecture to represent his rising regime and a recognized empire. Learn how when his successor started the de-Stalinization of the former Soviet Union in 1953, the extravagancy of the architecture was toned down.

Discover how the unique character of each station reflected several different eras. While stations like Kievskaya and Slavyansky Bulvar have pompous halls and high stucco ceilings brimming with extravagant decorations, those built later, like Volzhskaya, are lightly adorned with sparse furnishings. Architect Alexey Dushkin and painter Alexander Deyneka were just two of the many artists who made these magnificent landmarks possible.

Revel in Moscow's glory days, as well as the years of scarcity, on this fascinating Moscow metro experience. Conclude your tour at one of the central stations in Moscow. If you're lucky, you may even find the secret entrance to the unconfirmed Metro-2, a parallel underground system used by the government -- a mystery which has neither been denied nor confirmed today.

Culture Shock Rating

We have a wide range of tours designed to give you an insight into the destination you're travelling in and there is something for everybody. The culture shock ratings considers the destination visited, transport used, activities undertaken and that "Wow, I'm really not at home now!" factor. While generalisations are always tricky, a summary of our gradings is as follows…

This is the least confronting of our tour range. Transport used on the trip is either private or a very comfortable public option, the activities included are usually iconic sites and locations that are not all too confronting.

The tour can include a mix of private and public transport providing a level of comfort that is slightly below what you would experience at home.

The comforts of your home town and the environment you are used to are more of a rarity. Expect some challenging transport options, visits to local sites and areas that don't resemble anything at home.

You're out there in the global community! You are likely to be exposed to the elements, travel in whatever means of transport is available and basically take it as it comes, whatever comes! It can be tough.

Physical Rating

Finally, a perfect use for a Segway: Mowing your lawn

Segway, the maker of the dorkiest way to get around while taking a city tour on vacation, wants to mow your lawn for you.

The company is out with the Navimow i series, an AI-assisted, Roomba-like lawnmower that promises to free up Saturday mornings in the suburbs with features that are missing in some other automated mowers, and at a lower price point, too.

Where some other brands’ automated mowers require perimeter wires that have to be buried underground around a property to mark off a work area, Segway’s mower uses virtual boundaries that can be edited on a smartphone.

Users can map out multiple zones on a property and schedule different mow times for each one. And the VisionFence-off Zone feature allows users to mark off things like sidewalks, stone paths, and drain covers that they want the mower to pass over without classifying them as obstacles, enabling it to get from one side of a property to another.

While much of the experience is controlled via smartphone, the Navimow is pretty smart and figures out quite a bit on its own. Its AI-powered assist mapping feature identifies lawn edges, and the company says the mower can map its work area and figure out the most efficient cutting route to “ensure an evenly cut lawn and prevent missed cuts.”

The mower’s visual detection feature allows it to avoid obstacles, something that’s more crucial for a machine that cuts grass with blades than an indoor automated vacuum cleaner. (In a promotional video, Segway previews the tech by showing the mower avoiding a teddy bear and a sleeping child on a blanket.) The mower’s 140-degree field-of-view camera uses an AI algorithm to detect more than 20 common objects.

Segway entered the automated lawnmower market in 2021 with a GPS-powered machine, but the cost of its latest model is significantly cheaper, starting at $999.

Go beneath the streets on this tour of the spectacular, mind-bending Moscow Metro! Be awed by architecture and spot the Propaganda , then hear soviet stories from a local in the know. Finish it all up above ground, looking up to Stalins skyscrapers, and get the inside scoop on whats gone on behind those walls.

Know More about this tour

We begin our Moscow tour beneath the city, exploring the underground palace of the Moscow Metro. From the Square of Revolution station, famous for its huge statues of soviet people (an armed soldier, a farmer with a rooster, a warrior, and more), we’ll move onto some of the most significant stations, where impressive mosaics, columns, and chandeliers will boggle your eyes! Moreover, these stations reveal a big part of soviet reality — the walls depict plenty of Propaganda , with party leaders looking down from images on the walls. Your local guide will share personal stories of his/her family from USSR times, giving you insight into Russia’s complicated past and present. Then we’re coming back up to street level, where we’ll take a break and refuel with some Russian fast food: traditional pancakes, called bliny. And then, stomachs satiated, we are ready to move forward! We’ll take the eco-friendly electric trolleybus, with a route along the Moscow Garden Ring. Used mainly by Russian babushkas(grannies) during the day, the trolleybus hits peak hours in the mornings and evenings, when many locals use it going to and from their days. Our first stop will be the Aviator’s House, one of Stalin’s Seven Sisters, followed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs — and you’ll hear the legends of what has gone on inside the walls. Throughout your Moscow tour, you’ll learn curious facts from soviet history while seeing how Russia exists now, 25 years after the USSR.
