For a unique and unforgettable Holiday Gift, why not give a Gift Certificate for a City Segway Tour?

City Segway Tours offers you the complete experience: a great orientation, informative historical and current-day information, unique and fascinating stories, fantastic photo ops, superb personal service from your guide, an opportunity to ride the coolest and greenest machine in the world, and more. The Segway is the first of its kind-a zero emission, self-balancing, personal transportation device that's designed to operate in any pedestrian environment. It's new, cool and a ton of fun.

Riding a Segway is simple and intuitive. Sensors in the Segway detect a rider's center of gravity and motors balance the machine for the rider. If the rider leans forward, the Segway's wheels roll forward. When the rider leans backwards, the Segway rolls backwards. Turning is simple as well - the rider simply leans from side to side.

"It takes most people who tour with us about five minutes to become completely comfortable on the Segway," says City Segway Tours of Atlanta Manager, Kristie Krabe. "We start with a short training video and then practice one on one with guests to make sure everyone is comfortable before the tour starts." City Segway Tours uses the newest model Segway, the i2 which has the patented "Lean Steer" Technology and is very user-friendly.

Past guests rave about the tour. One guest from Portland, Oregon, said, "It was the highlight of the whole trip. We had an excellent time. None of us had ever been on a Segway before, and my 60 year old mother was terrified that she would fall. But she got the hang of it in no time, and was an old pro by the time the tour was over."

Their tours operate in the U.S. in Atlanta, Chicago, San Francisco and Washington, DC.

Prices range from $50 - $70 for tours and gift certificates can be purchased by calling 1-877-SEG-TOUR. Visit www.CitySegwayTours.com for more information.
