segway tour

Gliding city exploration

A segway tour is a guided sightseeing excursion where participants ride Segways—two-wheeled, self-balancing electric vehicles.

Popular in tourist areas, these tours let groups cover more ground than walking while an instructor leads them past landmarks: We took a segway tour of the National Mall.

The format has become synonymous with a certain kind of tourist experience.
