This was awesome! Spencer was so nice and patient with me, a 54-year-old, nervous first time rider! We got to see so much and he was very knowledgeable about Halifax. It was truly a pleasure and fantastic experience! It was easy to book and he was there on time. Great experience!
Response from Host, Aug 2025

Gail_B, Aug 2025
Im 73, and although it was a little tiring (3.50 hours) it is doable if you dont have any physical problems. Our guide, Jay, was extremely knowledgable, and gave us much welcomed rest breaks. Great capsule shot of all things Halifax. Our guide was very considerate and safety concious.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Hi Gail,
Thank you for the kind review! We are so glad you enjoyed the tour and had a great time with Jay. If you're ever back in the area, please don't hesitate to come say hi!
Elizabeth_P, Jul 2025
Excellent instruction prior to tour - lots of staff on hand to teach the Rogers different skills (how to mount/ dismount/ slow down/ handle hills and bumps). Everyone wore a headset so we could all hear the tour and also be coached in safety tips (e.g. watch the bump etc). Our guide, Connor, was amazing - friendly, knowledgeable and knew how to check on everyone. The assistant, jay, was also friendly and helpful. We were looking for a fun tour to engage our teenagers and this surpassed our hopes. We saw so many sites around Halifax and thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon. Thank you!
Response from Host, Aug 2025

Sydney_H, Jul 2025
3 hour Segway tour lead by Connor- fun day! A quick walk around the pier (from our cruise ship) to start the day. The tour hit all the nearby sites and ended just in time to grab lunch at the pier and ice cream at Cows. Great day in Halifax
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Hi Sydney,
Thanks for the great review! We're so glad you enjoyed your City Spin with Connor! Segway tours are a great way to see all the major downtown sights in a fun and effortless way! Glad you got to try Cows as well! Always worth it. Please if you're in the city again stop by and say hi!
Melissa_W, Jul 2025

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Easy, fun, great way to see a lot of sights in a relatively short time! We had helmets and comfortable ear phones so we could hear descriptions and instructions. With a small group, it was very personalized and positive!
Response from Host, Jun 2025
Hi Deborah! Thank you so much for your kind review. We're so glad you had a great time and enjoyed the tour!
Amy_M, May 2025
This was so much fun. We felt well taken care of. We learned a lot of history of Halifax and saw some amazing sights. The highlight being the cannon.
Response from Host, Jun 2025
Hi Amy! We're so glad you had a great time! The noon gun definitely is a favourte of ours too, amoung many others of course. If you're ever back in the city, we'd love to have you back.
Scott_M, Nov 2024
Outstanding tour . Had a great time on the segways. Perfect length and saw all the highlights of Halifax
Bonnie_M, Nov 2024
We actually went in Sep 2023 (not Nov 2023). We were a bit nervous, as it was our first time on segways, but it turned out fairly easy and very fun! Kudos to our guide back then (Lauren, I think - apologies, I'm writing this review over 1 year later). We were lucky, weather was great that weekend. Definitely we recommend this tour!
NeilAspinall, Oct 2024
Chris did a fantastic job leading the group around and was also really helpful and supportive with the training. The canon firing at noon at the Citadel was the highlight of an excellent and fun trip. It was well worth the fee for the tour and a trip I'd definitely do again, if and when I'm back in Halifax.
Delinda_G, Oct 2024
Segways are a great way to cover a lot of the city and see a lot. Christopher was so helpful and kind. Good teacher and patient. Had a very nice trip do a Segway in every city I can
ScottMcDiarmid, Oct 2024
Excellent guide and experience.
It was my girlfriends first time on a Segway and they were patiently teaching to ensure safety.
Doug_P, Oct 2024
Connor was great! He was very informative, personable, and interacted with all of us on the tour. We highly recommend this tour as it’s an efficient and fun way to see the major areas of Halifax.
Donna_W, Oct 2024
The cannon firing at Citadel Hill was a highlight. The hill was steep (and super windy,) but the seaways maneuvered well. We had a fun group and our gude Chris was patient with our training and did an excellent job.
suzanne_d, Oct 2024
One of the most memorable parts of the tour was actually learning how to ride a Segway safely. Our guide took great care over our safety and provided great information about the area.
dvbow, Oct 2024
A really fun way to see Halifax, great views at the top if the citadel just in time for the midday gun and changing of the guard.
