Another Side Of San Diego Tours

Keanna was our tour guide today. My family and I had a «private» Embarcadero tour and we had a great time. Keanna’s instructions for the first time riders including my wife and kids was fabulous. We loved the experience and wanna do it again.

Took a segue tour with Another Side of San Diego and it was awesome!!! They teach you to ride the segue and you get to see a lot of the city in a few hours. The tour guides all seemed great, but our guide John was especially incredible. He was able to manage a group of 8 with varying levels of ability and everyone did really well and enjoyed the tour. He also made sure we all got photo opportunities at all the right places. If you are looking for a fun and different activity, these guys can’t be beat!!!

What an awesome Segway tour through San Diego! Very knowledgeable and friendly staff, and they are intentional with catering the tour to what you want to know and see! HUGE shout out to Adam, who made sure we got to see and know everything we wanted to!
Though a little pricier comparatively to the other Segway tour companies we researched in SD, you certainly get the full value in the customer service and overall tour experience! I can’t speak for the other places, but this company sure knows how to maximize the San Diego experience!
Tip #1: during the off season (December is when we went), you’re more likely to get a personalized and private tour. It was only the three of us plus our tour guide, Adam. Did I mention how great he is?!
Tip #2: If you are visiting or on vacation here, do this tour FIRST! Your tour guide will literally plan out the rest of your trip by offering great food recommendations, places to go, and things to do.
Thanks again for a wonderful experience!

This review is seriously long long long overdue! But better late than never: P
So I did something different for once — never thought I would but I did — I got onto a segway. Definitely did not come out nearly like Paul Blart tho! Not even 5%… lol
The segway was a bit freaky for me at first for I was really afraid I couldn’t balance or maneuver around. But after getting some practice in & after ½ hour in to the riding a segway I felt a little relieved but still tensed. Hence why feet & legs were a little sore after. Overall it was definitely a pretty cool experience. But I totally felt like a mega tourist in the beginning.
: SERVICE/​TOUR :
The staff were super friendly, organized & professional. They made sure each individual got their practice in (which was about ½ an hour b4 we started our tour). We were offered water & chips as snack.
We did the SD city & Bay tour & had used our Groupon purchase. Jon was our guide & he did an awesome job. There was 8 in our group that included the head guide & and an assistant following behind. They made sure we safe all the way through our tour. Each segway has a pouch in the front to hold your personal small belongings & water bottle.
: TIPS :
1) I wouldn’t suggest bringing big purses or backpacks.
2) If you park in the structure right by their shop you can get your ticket validated from a machine at the mall. Validation is good up to 3 hours.

We went on two segway tours with Adam on our visit to San Diego last week. Both were well organized, fun, and informative. My travel mate an I have been on several segway tours so we were familiar with riding. Nevertheless, I appreciated Adam’s thorough instruction and his professionalism with keep us safe. I would absolutely recommend any of the the tours offered by this fine company!

On vacation, and knew we wanted to do a segway tour. Found y’all. OMG what a great time we had. So glad we did it. Adam was a great tour guide. Would highly recommend it to anyone. Thanks for the day.

First time with Another Side of San Diego Tours and don’t regret a single moment. We were able to see more of Balboa Park in 2 hours than we could have in 2 days! Keanna made the experience for me my wife and two cousins from out of the country a most memorable experience. She even made sure we didn’t miss a photo-​op pointing out the best spots and serving as our own personal photographer. I was hesitant before booking for reasons of safety and cost — but all those concerns melted away as I saw the look of joy on the faces of my wife and cousins as we segwayed through the beauty of Balboa Park. Looking forward to taking Another Side of San Diego up on another tour on our next visit to San Diego!

We had the absolute best time at Another Side of SD Tours! We had Keanna as our tour guide and boy did we luck out. She was super fun, informative and thoughtful. We got to party with Bob Hope, photo bomb some lovely Asian ladies, rock the Flying V and perform an impromptu choreographed dance routine… all. on the Segways! So much fun!

Keanna was the best tour guide! My boyfriend and I were first timers on Segway tours and she made sure that I felt safe and comfortable the whole time while allowing him to zoom off and do his guy thing. Not to mention she takes the best pictures and is so knowledgable and fun! Thanks Keanna :)
Ps. Good luck on your LSAT!

Adam was an awesome tour guide! My husband and I had the best time ever touring the city. I was scared when I first got on but Adam helped me build my confidence quickly. This is a MUST DO while in San Deigo.

This was my second time touring with Another Side as I had more family in town that I knew would enjoy it. Last time I brought my 10 year old nephew, and this time I brought another older nephew and my 70 year old dad. We took the Balboa tour with Keana this time and had a superb time.
This is the best way to see the park overall rather than just bits and pieces across many different visits. Keana had so much fun information to share that we’ve been talking about for the past 2 days since. Fun to learn new local trivia!
Our guide also did a great job keeping us relaxed, not getting rattled or making us feel like clumsy dweebs :) and was smart to ask if we wanted her to hold on to a camera, so she could take pictures of us throughout. She took many, and they turned out great!
It was fun to a have a short break to walk through the botanic gardens too.

We had a great segway tour with Keanna. The segway was a great way to see downton San Diego and balboa park.

Just had an awesome tour with Chris, he showed us everything about the Segway and took us all over balboa park. The tour was great, we visited all the major landmarks in the park and he even knew a lot about the history of the park as well as san diego as a whole. I had a great time and got to see a lot more than I would have been able to on Foot, plus the Segways are a good time. Would recommend.

Ok, now i want my very own Segway.
Stop Unilocaling and go book your tour now! Make sure you book with ‘John.‘This guy is the real deal.
I was always a bit skeptical when watching the segway tours pass by me in the Gaslamp quarter. I decided, maybe it would be a good idea to see what all the fuss is about.
I’m SO glad I gave it a try and booked with these guys. They take the time to make sure you’re comfortable on the segway before venturing out into the urban streets of the Gaslamp Quarter. Best part? I had no idea their tours also go to Coronado, Balboa Park or La Jolla! And the price is SO reasonable with the level of service they provide.
These guys are professional, knowledgeable and so much fun! They stop at specific areas and go over the history of the area and even give great restaurants recommendations for later. Not to mention, the views can’t be beat!
If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would. I can’t wait for my next segway tour and to bring my whole family with next time they’re in town!

Segway tour was awesome
Wife and I were nervous at first but by the end we were pros,
Thanks so much guys!

My fiancé and I did a walking food tour of Gaslamp. We went to Don Chito Mexican and it was amazing! And then we went to Union Kitchen for apps as well as Chocolat for dessert. Although the food was great, I would have preferred to have smaller portions and more tastings.
Our tour guide Ryan was great. He was very nice and we enjoyed hanging with him for a few hours. But by the end we paid over $ 200 for time chit chatting with Ryan over lunch. Not too much history and not much thought behind the tour.
Splurge on your own lunch instead of doing a tour. Or do the Segway since it seems like those have much better reviews.

This was absolutely a blast! I made these reservations as a birthday present for my husband. I was a bit nervous getting on as it’s all about balance but just a minute or two and I was ready. We zipped all around town. Our tour guide John was great. Very knowledgeable. The action shot video he shot of us with our camera was worth allot to us and he is the one who suggested it (no charge)! Iyou have got to do this, We will again!

Get off Unilocal and book your tour with john immediately! My mom and I decided to take a quick mothers daughter trip to San Diego and since it was our first time here, we thought the Segway tour would be a great way to experience the city and boy were we right! Actually, we would give more stars if we could. Everyone was super kind from the moment we walked in, even offering water and Cheetos. Sure chips sound weird, but fun little touch.
John was a great tour guide and had an awesome personality… very passionate, down to earth and eager to show his guest the city. Cool way to see the city (even got some pretty awesome pictures throughout the tour.
My mom took a little face dive (user error) and our guide didn’t miss a beat with offering to stop, get water, and make sure she was okay!
Worth every penny and will def take another tour next time I’m in town — thanks John!

What a great tour My boyfriend and I had today with this company! It’s valentines day weekend and we decided to get up at 9am to tour San Diego. (A fellow Unilocaler suggested 9am to avoid traffic– great call!). We get there and watch an informational video, then practice on our segways. Eddie made us feel so comfortable and safe as it was our first time!
The tour was amazing. Went to the Harbor, toured Balboa Park, toured the streets of San Diego. I was definitely pleasantly surprised on all the info I learned and will be taking with me. As a regular San Diego visitor, this historical information was new to me, but learning this … I have a new respect for the city.
I definitely recommend this tour! :)

First 20 seconds after getting on the 2-​wheel machine with assistance from the instructor, my brain immediately went into flight mode «No, stop, I can’t do this!!! I’ll fall flat on my face!!!» … Shut up brain!!! Glad I didn’t act on my initial fear, as I stayed put and listened to the coach. I was off gliding away in no time!!!
First time doing the segway and had a blast!!! And didn’t fall!!! So glad I wasn’t the victim of a minor collision, as one of the chics in our group crashed into hubby! No one got hurt so it was funny!
Group of 7 gliding through the streets of DTSD on a fab, summer afternoon led by the rad, Scotty from Arizona. We whisked through the Embarcadero area, through Seaport and the cruise dock after a great photo op at Gas lamp. We were like celebrities, as Scotty said! People were smiling as they watched us and totally envious as they had to walk through DTSD while we had our motorized tour and covered more ground in less time! A family even inquired on how they could get on board!
I had the best time!!! …Would totally be down to segway the world!!!
