Discover Queenstown with the amazing Segway! Take in various points of interest around Queenstown with your friendly guide, while you interact with your uniquely fascinating Segway.
A quick training session gets you used to the unique motion of the Segway before you embark on the tour.
Taking you through St Omer Park and around Queenstown Bay, your friendly guide will show you points of interest, and provide light commentary as you interact with your uniquely fascinating Segway. The tour takes you a little out of town and up a hill or two before giving you time to explore and play some more with the Segway in the beautiful Queenstown Gardens.
On the way back you have the option to experience an even higher speed setting, leaving you in awe of the amazing technology that is the eco-friendly Segway.
How does it work?
Segway Smart Motion maintains balance while moving forwards or turning. Just lean forwards to go forwards and lean back to stop, simple! You'll be amazed how quickly the Segway becomes an extension of your own body, as you naturally feel confident with it's movement and control.
How fast does it go?
On the open speed setting the Segway achieves a sprinting pace of up to 20km/ph. Of course speed control settings ensure you have time to get the hang of things before deciding to push the limits.
What an unexpected fantastic experience. A must do if you want to be a bit adventurous and see Queenstown in a very different way. Suitable for all ages and fitness levels Thanks Kevin you were great and we wish you all the very best
Thanks very much Debbie! Newbie's to the Segways are usually pleasantly surprised just how good the experience is. Returners know just what to expect so we hope to see you again as one of those one day :)
This is a nice way to get to know about Queenstown. I have enjoyed finding out the history about Queenstown and the Lake Wakatipu. It was great to visit some symbolic sites (plus photo taking) and tour around the lake with the amazing Segway. I have also enjoyed the golf-disc, which has become a new sports skill to me. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable. Definitely recommend to anyone and everyone who visit Queenstown.
Amazing tourist guides. Thank you for sharing and letting us feel a bit of Queenstown's history. Such a great experience.
Guides are awesome. Riding a Segway is a blast. Playing frisbee golf was a heap of fun. But both my sons came off the Segway when they leaned forward to accelerate and the Segway just 'gave way'. One is fine but the other has a suspected hairline fracture in his arm 2... so it's a heap of fun but proceed with caution.
I’m sorry to hear about the reviewer’s son’s misfortune on the Segways. It appears this incident happened after the rider went off the main trail and came in contact with tussock/rocks on the side of the trail. The Segway won’t just ‘give way’ but coming in contact with such objects can see the rider lose balance and the wheels lose traction resulting in a fall, which was the case here. Our training, supervision and safety management systems minimize risk to riders but as riders have control of their own Segways there can still be risk of mishaps unfortunately. I’m glad that despite the unfortunate turn of events that the reviewer found our guides awesome and riding the Segways a blast!
