Good to know
This suits confident movers and anyone wanting a different angle on the city's famous sights—quicker and more mobile than walking, but not entering buildings. Avoid booking if you have spinal problems, pregnancy, poor cardiovascular health, or weigh under 25 kg. The Segway itself requires reasonable balance and core stability, though all fitness levels are welcome. Public transport stops are close by if you need to get to the meeting point. Note: major attractions like Parliament, the Basilica, and the Ferris wheel require separate paid entry tickets (around €10 each) if you want to go inside—this tour passes them but doesn't include access.
