Fantastic Guided Tour of the National Mall
Review of: Sites by Segway Tour
I took this tour while visiting D.C. with a friend, and we really enjoyed it. Our guide, Cameron U., provided an excellent, fun experience. My friend and I had never been on a Segway before, and Cameron was a very patient and encouraging coach; we mastered it quickly, and the new experience enhanced the trip. The time was well spent seeing and learning about some of the most significant and interesting sites on the Mall. Cameron set a good pace, leaving us time to spend sufficient time at each sight, and I was impressed by his knowledge. He was also patient with our group but ensured we finished our tour in a timely manner. I highly recommend this tour, and thank you, Cameron, for a memorable experience!
