City Segway Tours

Awesome tour. Awesome guide. Groups were limited to 6 – 8 people. Saw many parts of town. It was my boyfriend’s first Segway tour, and he came home wanting to buy one. Highly recommend.

I’ve never been on a Segway before and Segways are an awesome way to see the a lot of a city without getting exhausted and spending lots and lots of time in transit. It’s also a lot of fun! Mostly b/​c you know you look silly and you get a lot of weird looks and some waves sometimes.
The only reason why this place wasn’t 5 stars was that we had to stop a few too many times for a guy and his wife who kept crashing into each other or falling onto the floor and just being awful segway drivers.
The segway is limited at around 11 mph, so while you don’t go that fast, you have the feeling that you’re flying down the street! It’s pretty intuitive and after about a few minutes you’ll totally get the hang of it.
Seeing New Orleans here like this is pretty awesome! The road conditions are kinda rough, but the segways can handle it. Go check it out here!

Fun tour. Nice to do a segway in a new city.

I want a Segway for Christmas! It is just SO MUCH FUN!
I was slightly nervous coming here today, as I’d never ridden a Segway before. But the crew at City Segway were super thorough, patient and made sure that I understood everything I needed to before the tour began. We did a 3 hour tour with Jason — he obviously knew his Nola history, but more importantly, made sure we were safe on the roads — really, Nola roads are not made for segways! But we still had a super time, the tour was well-​paced and very informative, with sufficient time for coffee breaks and photo-​ops. It also helped give us a better idea of what we wanted to do during the rest of our trip to Nola — so I would strongly recommend doing such a trip on the first day or so of your vacation.

Great way to start off our New Orleans trip. Jon was a great tour guide and we got to visit a ton of places in three hours. Plus we got to get an idea of what we might want to go spend more time at. Now go strengthen up your calves for some Segway riding.

Glide effortlessly through the historic streets of the French Quarter, the spooky cemeteries, and the breathtaking Mississippi River Front via the most fun and efficient transportation — Segway! The two– or three-​hours guided tour offers unique local stories and fantastic photo opportunities… all on your favorite two-​wheeler.

Tanya was a great guide and the tour covers a great deal of New Orleans. Great way to start your trip and familiarize yourself with the area and its history. My wife doesn’t know how to ride a bike but dominated the Segway… therefore anyone can do it!

A LOT of fun, takes a bit to get used to the machines. Scary at first, but once your guide gets you out onto the streets it is a great experience. Our guide was Cathy, very personable and knowledgeable. Cathy made the trip for us!!! We did the 3 hour tour… and man you feel it at the end. Feet tired, legs a bit crampy. but Cathy understands this and makes frequent stops to accommodate her flock so to speak.
I will admit, when you watch the safety video and realize these things are not toys you get a little bit intimidated… The staff is right there to help you over come your fears and get to moving…
Yes it is a bit pricey, but it is one of those things you just have to do… I know they want you to review on Trip review system, but tried and true Unilocaler here to tell it like it is.
Great job City Segway Tours keep up the good work!!!

I’ve been on Segway tours in six differ cities, but this tour was my first segway tour and it was the most fun. The Segway takes a minute to get used to, but once you do you’ll not want to get off. Well I take that back, after a few hours, you will be sore. Take an Advil in advance or you’ll wish you had. Have fun!

We opted for the two-​hour Orleans Segway Experience; which included the French Quarter, Congo Square and a portion of the Marginey. Took advantage of the military discount. Safety info and pre-​glide training were sufficient to get everyone up and going for the tour. Our tour guide, Amber, added good value to the experience by providing a mix of historical and current event info. She kept us engaged, moving and safe. We had a few stops along the way for breaks. Enjoyed the weather, our group and the tour. Thank you Amber and City Segway.

Chad was great. We did the 3 hr tour and could have done more. Goes by so fast. We recommend this as a must do.

My husband booked a Segway tour via City Segway Tours during our first time stay in NOLA. It was a very organized operation. Upon arrival, we were asked to sign waivers, which is standard, I would imagine. The operators were personable and friendly which helped to ease my nerves as I had never done something like this. We met Steven who was to be our Segway instructor and tour guide. What a fun and patient fella! We watched a 6 minute instructional video (helpful) and then jumped right in! Wes were given time to learn and practice and then we were off.
Our guide, Steven, was perfect. He was safe, knowledgable, and humorously engaging. I can’t recommend this company enough. We can’t wait to try the Segway rental in our own hometown now, and plan to use this company again next year. Yes, that is how much we enjoyed it.

I am very on the fence about this tour and would probably rate it a 3.5 if that was an option.
Let me start by saying that this is a GREAT way to see the city. We did the 3-​hour Segway tour which went through the French Quarter, Treme, and Fauborg Marigny. We covered a lot in 3 hours! That is the pro.
Our tour guides name was Brad. Brad was extremely knowledgable about the city. He pointed out a lot of cool areas, bars, places to eat, and historic landmarks. The problem was that when we would stop, Brad would pace back and forth on the Segway while he was talking which made it hard to hear anything he was saying. When we asked him to repeat it, he seemed a little annoyed with us. He would also point to landmarks and turn his face away from us, making it difficult to hear. Additionally, toward the end of the tour we went over a difficult train track and instead of waiting for everyone to cross, he continued on and I had fallen off my Segway. Another tour member had to flag him down. He also crossed the street without enough time for everyone to cross so a bunch of us got left behind and had to catch up.
He really could be AWESOME but might just need to refine the tour.
If you’re only in NOLA for a short time, do this tour. Overall had a great time and might just request a different guide.

We are locals and thought it would be fun to take a Segway tour. We had a pretty fun time, but our guide wasn’t very good. We told him multiple times that we were locals, but he still gave the same spiel that he would for a tourist. He was pretty dry and didn’t have a great personality. He wasn’t rude or disrespectful, just boring.
Note: Wear comfortable shoes. After and hour-​and-​a-​half of Segwaying around the streets of NOLA, your feet and legs will be sore!

Two of us went out today with Jason on a 2 hour tour. After a thorough safety briefing and orientation including practice, we were off! What a wonderful way to spend a sunny NOLA afternoon. Our guide was full of great tips and fun history lessons as we went throughout the Quarter and beyond. The trip wrapped up with a river tour and photo op.
Our time was safe, fun, and educational — we WILL be back.
Thanks for everything!
Make sure to ask for Jason — he’s an awesome guide!

Really cool
Great tour
Best for the visiting for the first time
Johnny was very good
Definitely I will recommend to anyone that what to learn about NOLA

Chad was our tour guide for our 2hour tour and he did a FANTASTIC job! Not only was this our family’s first time on a Segway, it was also our first time in New Orleans. He did an amazing job of sharing the history of the city with us at each stop point. The 2hr trip was perfect. Anything longer may have been too long! The segways were very easy to learn to ride and they provided us with free bottled water and ponchos! (In case it started raining) I would DEFINITELY recommend this tour to everyone of all ages! (My parents are in their late 50’s and they also enjoyed the trip.) I would suggest you wear some comfortable shoes, because I had on flip flops and my feet started hurting after a while. Other than that, I loved it and look forward to doing it again in other cities!

Segways are so FUN! I was a little nervous because it was my first time on a Segway, but it was really easy to learn. After 2 minutes of practicing in the office I was ready to hit the streets. Jason was our tour guide. He was very knowledgeable about the history of New Orleans and gave great food recommendations for lunch afterwards.

DO THIS! If you are on the fence as to doing this or not, don’t hesitate one more second. DO THIS!
Without a doubt, this is the funnest thing we have done while staying in the French Quarter for 10 days. We did the 3 hour tour and when we purchased it, we were a bit skeptical that it was going to be too long. However, when we turned the corner to the shop indicating we were near the end of the tour, we let out a collective «no!!»… we wanted to keep going! Amber was our guide and what can I say, she was perfect! Amber is a woman won loves her job, (who can blame her) and her passion translates to an amazing tour that is mixed with incredible knowledge & real world experience (considering she is a French Quarter local). We were even taken to a half-​way stopping point in the form of an amazing coffee house. The Treme Coffee House was a needed oasis and the Caprese Panini was jaw dropping good!
If you haven’t been on a Segway before, it’s a piece of cake. My wife and I had never touched one and within minutes of some professional instruction, we were off and having a blast. If you think any other tour can duplicate this, you’re wrong. I’ve been a part of New Orleans walking tours, haunted tours, horse drawn carriage tours etc… And this one easily, hands down takes the cake. The amount of miles you cover, the number of districts you travel through mixed with a fantastic tour guide like Amber & the absolute thrill of riding a Segway puts it easily at 5 stars!

Best way to see New Orleans!
This was our first time riding segways so we were a bit nervous. At first it was challenging to balance and maneuver the segway to go in the desired direction. After getting past the initial shock, it was a very fun way to see the sights. We took the 3 hours tour at 10am with Jason. We were able to cover all the main sights within that time, including a photo stop at the Mississippi River.
Overall, this is a great way to see NOLA in a short amount of time. I recommend taking this tour at the beginning of your trip so you can get an idea of the area then explore on your own after the tour.
