Rocky Top Glide

We had Brett for our Segway tour downtown Denver today… He is really good and the Segway tour was awesome! Highly recommend this! Bought coupons on Groupon and I highly recommend that as well! Like it so much I could do it every day!!!

We took the tour with John on 5÷21÷2016 (along with Janet — see her review on 5÷22÷2016). What a hoot! The segways worked flawlessly, the weather was perfect, and John was about the best tour guide I have seen. Our first experience and cannot wait to do it again! By the way, I am a professor, non-​athletic and 73 years old — if I can do it, anyone can do it!

We had a delightful segway tour around Denver. From Coors Field to the Arts district. What a fun way to see the city. The group size was perfect, the tour guide (John) did a great job keeping us all on the move, and the day was perfect. We were a mix of people from in and out of town so John had to balance our interests. He did a very nice job of keeping things interesting and pacing the tour so we could all stay together. Great information about the architecture, history, and culture of Denver.

Really fun tour!
Can be a bit hard to find as they don’t actually have a store front but there is a nice bar you can hit up while you wait if you are early like we were.
The tour guide Brett was super laid back and equally good about getting each of us comfortable with the Segway. I was s bit nervous at first but you get used to it really quick. We headed down to Coors Field and then down by the river and cherry creek, which was the prettiest part of the tour. The stop at LittleMan ice cream was a nice added bonus.
Overall really fun! Thanks

As I walked past the Convention Center in downtown Denver a man on a bicycle drove my business associate and I off the sidewalk. Thinking he was a tourist, I said there is a bike path and pointed to it. He then started cussing profanity and me and continued to harass the two of us for a few blocks, using profanity in front of children and while giving a tour. Very unprofessional. He said his name is Henry and that he is the owner of the company. A scourge on downtown. If you want to make a good impression welcoming visiting associates then stay away from this company.

My son and I had an amazing time on our Segway tour with Rocky Top Glide. Our tour guide was wonderful. He gave us lots of tips for successful segway riding. We also stopped at great places along the tour in Denver and he gave us history about the city. You could tell that he is a resident and loves his city and not just a talking head throwing up memorized facts. I would add that we originally looked into going on a tour with Colorado Segway Tours and I felt that they were highly unprofessional. When I told them that I was thinking about Rocky Top too, they proceeded to bash and bad mouth their competition. I politely ended the conversation and they actually called me back to continue the bad mouthing. Rocky Top is more affordable, safety is great and the tour was amazing! Highly recommend.

No, I still do NOT recommend Rocky Top Glide! But I want to let you know that they DO have insurance. They told us they did not when I wrote the ¹⁰⁄₂₉ review. I think I’ll be spending some time in Denver in the coming year — thank goodness for frequent flyer miles! I’m looking forward to spending some quality time in beautiful Colorado!!!

A friend and I bought Groupons for 2hr tours. We booked a date/​time and went on the tour. Half way through the ride the skies opened up and it began to pour. Our guide was very nice and let us book another 2hr session for free so we could get the full experience. We came back a week later and the weather was perfect. The whole thing (rain and all) was a blast! The guide was knowledgeable about Denver and made the ride really fun! I’ve lived in Denver for about 8 years and learned a lot about the city, on this tour! I would highly recommend taking this tour!

I loved loved loved my tour. So much fun. These guys run a great operation. This is a denver must do.

I’ve lived I’m denver for 3 years and I learned things that I never knew about this city today! Our guide Zach was very knowledgable about the city; he knew fun facts important facts and pointed out nifty little places to go eat at or spend time at. The segues (sp? Haha) were scary at first to ride on, but within a few minutes I felt safe. He always knew where we were at and let us take as much time as we wanted at the beginning to get comfortable with the machine. Very personable and relaxed guy. Anyone can ride one and I recommend trying out this fun trip whether you live in Denver or are just visiting!

This tour was a blast! Zack was funny, informative, and full of interesting facts. This was a great introduction to Denver and riding a Segway. I would HIGHLY recommend this tour.

Took the 1.5 hour tour. Brandon, our tour guide, was great and very patient with teaching us how to ride/​drive the Segways. Took us all around Denver. Great, fun way to see the city.

Just finished our 2 hour tour with our guide, Brandon. Brandon was great! He made sure we felt comfortable learning how to ride and had interesting facts and history to share along the route. The segways were so much fun to ride!
It was so cold today and breezy. We wore extra layers and thermal underwear and it was still cold! But it was worth the experience.
Highly recommended. Ask for Brandon to be your guide!

So, yeah, the thing about this tour is… it’s just not all that great or interesting.
Don’t get me wrong, the tour guide was friendly but totally uninformed about anything that might be remotely of interest to a tourist.
Sample exchanges:
Q: What’s the population of Denver?
A: I don’t know man, but it’s growing. Yeah, it’s growing.
Q: What is that building?
A: I don’t know but it’s pretty big
My friends and I are total nerds and do Segway tours wherever we go. The ones in Chicago and Savannah were great but I also think there is a lot more to see there. A lot of this was in downtown, where you’re just looking at office buildings. The nicest parts were when we were by Coors Field and then when we were down by the river and over by the big REI store.
Otherwise, there is not very much to see and since our guide didn’t know much about the city, we just got to hear about things he likes to do and the classes he takes in school. After an hour, three of us wanted to rebel and quit the tour but the other two wanted to stick it out. In fairness to the guide, and not to bash Denver, but in the downtown area, there just wasn’t that much interesting to see
It’s always fun to ride Segways so I can’t give it less than three stars, but if you’re interested in seeing and learning a lot about Denver, you’d be better off reading a guidebook and walking around on your own. Thank goodness I had a groupon deal for this… if I’d paid full price it would have been two stars.

I took a trip back to Denver to visit friends and family over Labor Day weekend. My father-​in-​law surprised us with tickets for a two hour Segway tour through Denver, and it sounded like so much fun!
You meet at the visitor center at 16^th and California where you will get an individual tutorial on how to ride the Segway before heading off on the tour. I’m so glad they did the tutorial one person at a time, so give us a chance to get really comfortable on the Segway before we committed to two hours of zipping around the town. Our tour guys did a great job breaking down how to safely operate the Segway and I immediately was comfortable and ready to go!
We zipped around checking out the sites and our guides did a great job navigating downtown during both a Rocky’s game and the taste of Colorado! Crowds everywhere and there were no problems.
My favorite part of the tour was when we were really cruising down the sidewalk parallel with the Platt river.
I lived in downtown Denver for five years, but moved away six years ago so it was great seeing how much of it changed and what stayed the same. The guide and I had a fun time comparing facts and information about different historical spots in Denver.
You can have up to 4 people in your tour group, and there is a guide in front and in back so we stay together as a group. Their website says they may be able to accommodate larger groups if you call way in advanced, but the standard is up to four. I had a lot of fun and would highly recommended this to both tourists and locals! Thanks Brandon and Jake for the fun tour!
