Additional Information
If you’re curious about what it’s like to ride a Segway then this ride is for you. It’s designed to teach you how to ride and give you plenty of time to practice before heading off around the village to take in the sights of Devonport, Auckland’s historic seaside village. You’ll ride around the Waterfront to Cheltenham beach where you will have a superb view of the Hauraki Gulf and Rangitoto Island which, at only 650 years old, is our youngest volcanic cone rising majestically out of the Gulf. There will be plenty of opportunities to take some great photos of the scenery and of course of you on a Segway. As you return to our base on Devonport Wharf you’ll have a chance to put the Segway through its paces as you ride up hill and down dale through the back streets of the village where you can admire the beautifully restored Victorian villas.

New fun experience - We really enjoyed our hour or so scoot around the waterfront & back streets of Devonport. Pauline was a great guide sharing history of the area as we went.
As it was a lovely day, we found a couple of new spots for swimming.
We thoroughly recommend this experience, alot of fun :)

Family fun on a windy day - My husband and two teens had a great time learning and exploring on this tour. It was a fine but windy day when we took a spin on the Segways at Labour Weekend. After a short training session on the wharf we started to explore around Devonport. Pauline was very supportive of our 13 year old who was nervous to start with but became happy and confident quite quickly. She was a very informative guide who stopped to show us points of interest along the way. We've been to Devonport a number of times before but we went down new side streets and found new places along the way which was great. A great family activity which everyone enjoyed.

Fun way to see Devenport... - We had never been on Segways before, and being mid 50's were a little concerned. But they were very easy to operate and we caught on quickly.
Pauline, (I think that's her name), was perfect for showing us around and taking time with us. She was great for stopping and pointing out historic and detailed areas of Devenport.
When we tour, we try to find ways to mix things up as we tour around the country, and checking off the Segway was a great way to do this.

Great time - My wife and i had a great time on this tour. It's only a short ferry ride ($14 round trip) from where we got off our cruise ship. We would definitely do it again if we are in the area.

A great day in Devonport - A fun and relax way to explore Devonport, plus friendly and nice guides who gave lots of information throughout the tour. Especially Ngaire, a passionate Devonport gal, it was lovely to meet her.
