This was our second time on segways, but by far the best. Josh made it safe, fun and completely entertaining with his guitar and jokes! We were smiling non-stop for 2 hours! We saw the beautiful city of Santa Barbara enjoying the ocean front views and tour of the surrounding neighborhoods. Josh knew a lot of history and we learned... More

We did the short beach tour and it was a lot of fun. We quickly got the hang of it, and felt comfortable on the tour exploring the beach area. Nick, our tour guide was great and very knowledgeable about the area and the history of Santa Barbara. Definitely a unique experience and a lot of fun.

I have lived in Santa Barbara all my life and this was the first time I had ever ridden a Segway. Although it seemed scary at first our tour guide trained us well and we quickly became comfortable riding. We had the "Jamie tour" which took us up to the top of Santa Barbara City College, and all the way... More

My wife and I went on the Butterfly Beach Tour. We were trained to ride (about 20 minutes) and then set out on our tour with our guide Josh. Josh was a wonderful tour guide with a lot of interesting information about the area. He was also constantly looking back to see if we were all right and not falling... More

I was initially skeptical of riding a Segway around the city, and heavy fog didn't help, but the actual experience was excellent! The Segway was so easy to get used to that it felt quite strange at the end when I had to get off it and return to my boring old legs! Luis and Nick were fantastic guides: obviously... More

Our family of four took the Segway tour of Santa Barbara on a sunny afternoon in early April. Luis was our very competent and well-informed guide who made it a very fun way to see much of this beautiful city. Of course our teenagers loved the fun of riding the Segway, but perhaps surprisingly, it was just as much fun... More

My family (with kids 14 and 16) took the tour recently with Luis and had a great time. Luis was patient with us and made it fun for the kids. We covered much more territory than we would have on foot, and saw parts of Santa Barbara that we wouldn't have seen otherwise. It was our first visit to the... More

Our family (mom, dad and 2 teenage boys- 15 and 13) were escorted around SB by Josh on the city Segway tour. It was one of the highlights of our CA trip. The segways turned out to be quite easy to use after our training session at the store. Instructors will take cues from you re: your comfort level with... More

I came down to Santa Barbara from Washington state to visit my best friend - and see some sun! We went on this tour with Jerry as our tour guide. To say Jerry was patient with me (because I was a bit nervous starting out) would be an understatement :) Sure enough, once we got on our way the Segway... More
