Madsegs Segway Tours

This was our first experience on a Segway and I think it was great. Anthony, our tour guide, was really helpful and patient with the whole group. I think this is the best way to do sightseeing the city and have nice pics of it, too. I would definitely book it again when I go back to Madrid!

I’ve done 4 segway tours with 4 different companies and Antony is by far the most personable tour guide. The usually guide is a 20 something year old person who does tours on the side, this is not the case with Madsegs. This is Antony’s business, so you get first class service.
For first time segway riders, this is a must do. If you’ve done it before, Madrid is another good city to try it again, as the roads and sidewalks are very user friendly. I would say the only downside is that the segways are first generation, which takes a little longer to get used to than the new ones (maybe I just needed to reprogram myself?), but its not a problem at all. Everyone learns very quickly and these machines are built to be idiot proof. There is a definite wow factor every time you do a segway tour, all the other tourists are totally jealous and curious when you zoom by. Antony even teaches you how to do tricks on the segway!
Antony will take you to local spots to meet the owners and treat you to a drink/​snack. At the end of the tour he gives you Photos of you on the segways as well as a collection of some of his best photos of the different points of interests from the past 8 years. 4.5 stars.

Outstanding tour, Antony is a great guide, very patient and knowledgable. This is the best way to see Madrid.

We booked a tour with Madsegs for our autumn 2011 city trip to Madrid. To make it short: this was the best sightseeing tour we ever had before!
Anthony, the tour guide and owner of Madsegs, is a nice guy who first gave us a brief lesson how to operate and glide a Segway. After the lesson we received our personal Segway (1^st generation Segway) for the tour which lasted about 4 hours.
Anthony showed us places which we wouldn’t have visited walking around. We had a nice snack break at the middle of the tour. Later Anthony also let us glide down steps with our Segway which is, so Anthony told us, most unusual for Segway tours and unique in the world. Anyway, the most important reason to book Madsegs was that they allow children to glide a Segway as well, if they know the traffic rules and behave properly. We can really recommend Madsegs and their tour and the pricing was reasonable. After the tour we received a CD with pictures which Anthony has taken while we were gliding. A great service!

WOW ! An absolute must… especially if this is the first time for you in Madrid !
This is the coolest…
I cannot say enough about the guide/​owner and the adventure
.whats better than cruising around and unfamilliar city… on a totaly foreign contraption… having the guide take you down steps and off road… your lovely travel companion crashing multiple times ???
So cool… I bought one when I got home… and then bought another one… because one segway doesn’t do two people much good… although…with the luggage rack thingy… we did put two people on the thing…
…back to the review… very charming and extremely informative owner/​guide
This is a terrific way to get some familiarity with the city… great first day in the city thing to do. I tend to go to Spain in August… when no one else does.(and I can actually use my FF upgrades)…cheaper…and yes… some things are closed. Very nice to cruise around on the segways on a hot day… creating your own breeze.
I would also suggest a 2^nd tour in the afternoon/evening…do some off road segging…
