  It was absolute fun. We saw the city from a different perspective. The segways were lighter and more mobile than the ones we used in Rome. The downside is you can’t hear the tour guide at all.

  The tour was good fun and sure a good way to get an overview of the city. The information about the city was not priority so it you want that then do a different tour. Also, the company didn‘t have all the sizes of helmits. But still a very fun experience.

• Just OK- guide not informed

  We love Segways- We do a tour everywhere we visit both to enjoy the ride but also to get to know our surrounding. This guide, Peter, didn’t really know anything about the town, couldn’t answer any questions, and even got lost getting back to where we started. Nice man, just shouldn’t be a guide.

• What an adventure!

  What an adventure! We had a great couple of hours, with the only issue being the rain (which can’t be helped). Darting about the streets of Amsterdam - as dangerous as it sounds! We survived…..only just! Thanks for the experience.

• Bad location, uninformative guides, marginal machines. Can't recommend.

  I hate to give a negative review because the guys at Segway Amsterdam seem like genuinely nice, good people. But my wife and I have done Segway tours in several American and European cities, and this was without a doubt the worst one. If all you want to do is ride a Segway, the ride was OK. But if you want a "tour," where you are with knowledgeable guides where you can actually learn something about the city, this is not the tour for you. First, the meeting place is in an old school quite a long way from the city center (Central Railway station, Royal Palace, etc.), so it was a 20-30 minute walk to get there. Then the first 30 minutes of the "tour" was spent riding in circles in a very small courtyard in the school, then in a park across the street. I get that the guides need to know the clients are competent riders, but this was quite excessive. The next 10-15 minutes was riding back down the very busy street to get to someplace you want to see. The first stop was the museum near the Ann Frank House. One tour guide said, "This is the famous Ann Frank House. Well, actually the house is around the corner. You can see it another time if you like." The second guide said, "Yes, I don't recommend it." That was the extent of any description or historical context. The Royal Palace was the same. The Hart Museum was "That's the Hart Museum. I've never been in there." We went through the Rijksmuseum courtyard, which I only know because I saw a sign. On the entire tour we were never allowed to stop and get off the machines. If you've ridden a Segway before, you know your feet go to sleep in about 20 minutes. On other Segway tours the guides have always parked us every 10 to 15 minutes -- not just for the feet, but to actually talk to us, answer questions, and allow us to take photos (every photo I took on this tour was taken with one hand while moving, which was not only dangerous, but it resulted in really awful photos. The last 15 minutes was riding back to the meeting point, which means that of the 2-hour tour, 30 minutes was riding in circles, and 30 minutes was riding to and from their remote location. One last thing -- I don't know how hard it is to maintain a Segway, but one of the guides had one with a faulty steering column and another person's tire started going flat during the ride. One of the guides had a spare tire on his Segway, but they didn't change her tire, she just had to deal with it. (The guide with the bad steering column actually said, "Yeah, these things need a lot of work.") I'm not saying this was a total horror story, but the combination of the remote location, the total lack of professional, knowledgeable guides, and the marginal quality of the machines means I cannot recommend this to anyone.
