Sensational Segway !!! - Eddie and Diogo were amazing!
We had so much fun along with informative history of Lisbon.
I must say, it was a much easier and more pleasant way of getting about town than walking. My teenage son loved it, he normally complains about my love of history.
The guys were great and couldn’t have asked for a better afternoon.
It is a must!!!!

Fun Tour! - Fun tour with Eddie! He was very patient with us learning to Segway safely, and he gave us a great tour around Lisbon. With the hills, we were able to cover much more ground with the Segway than a walking tour.

Tons of fun on a Segway - Awesome way to see the old city. Our guide John was wonderful, he had us practice and it was great. It was so much fun. My husband and I are 63, no problem for us to do it.

Awesome experience and great guide - We had an awesome experience and also had a great guide. Mattiu was an excellent guide, really knowledgeable and he also kept it interesting for our 12 and 15 year old too. The segway tour itself was fantastic. Excellent viewing spots, some really fun scooting on narrow and steep streets. Lots of fun

Great introduction to Lisbon - We had a very fun time on this tour. Great way to get a quick introduction to Lisbon in a short amount of time. 3 hours seemed to be the sweet spot, we were able to see the plazas/squares and the marina/waterfront as well as a lookout point of the entire city.

Historical Lisbon - This tour was is not for the faint of heart. The streets of Lisbon are cobbled stone, there are many, many hills, heavy traffic, and tourists to navigate. Johnny, our guide, gave us a thorough lesson and very good advice prior to hitting the streets. I was glad we were on a Segway while touring because we were able to see much more of the city than if we had been walking. We were only in Lisbon for one day so we only saw a fraction of the city, but what we saw was beautiful and Johnny was knowledgeable and filled us in on many historical details of the city.
