I had booked this segway tour as a gift for my husband. I thought it would be a fun way to get around and see some sights. When we arrived and started training I have to admit I was a little a nervous and it was raining. Corey and Darnelle worked with us diligently with A LOT of patience. I... More

I had no idea that learning to ride a Segway would be so involved, but Corey and Darnelle worked patiently and tirelessly with us as we finally mastered the art of riding and stopping. The tour was wonderful and it was a great way to see the sites. Corey was most informative as a tour guide and Darnelle was always... More

I find Darnelle rather rude. For a person who is not quick in learning a new thing, she does not make it easy for you, especially knowing you have paid and there is no way to get a refund. She also talks down to people sometimes, which I find annoying.

Our tour with Private DC Segway Tours was the highlight of our trip to DC. Both Corey and Darnell were so patient with our party of 3 (especially me who needed a lot of extra help because I'm such a klutz!) during the training process. We almost thought we were not going to be able to actually do the tour.... More

It was superb ans a lot of fun! I recommend it to everybody. There were 4 of us and 2 did not speak English. We booked the tour over a phone and were a little bit scary because we did not know if we could control a segway properly. All the frights disappeared when Corey and Darnell started teaching us....

I booked a private segway tour in Washington DC on May 2, 2013 and had the time of my life. Cory, the guide and his girlfriend are AMAZING teachers and really take their time to train all the first-timers before the tour starts. The groups are kept small, I only had 3 in my group, and the guides give you... More

We loved our tour! Corey was an excellent teacher and guide. He and his lovely wife were so nice! I'm 69 years old and had no trouble. They are patient and thorough with the teaching. I do wish I had taken a hot bath that night because your calves get a good workout. They were sore the next two days!!

We had so much fun on this tour: Segway seems to be the best way to see a new city, provided of course the pavements are as good as they are in DC. Corey and Darnell really take their time to train all the first-timers before the tour starts making sure the sightseeing is fun and safe for everyone. The... More
