The Guide Jenny was excellent and very knowledgeable and informative. Great value for the 2plus hour tour

Great experience and Andrew was an amazing guide. He was very patient with us as we learned how to ride the Segway, and he is truly so knowledgeable. I'd definitely rebook in the future!

Jenny was our guide. She was very knowledgeable and attentive. We missed blacks island because of a folk festiva, but Jenny improvised and took us to other areas.

Most of trip is thru wooded areas, not the city. The wooded trip was nice but expected more of the city,

The Segways are a blast. After the 10 minute training it takes about 5 minutes to feel comfortable driving it. Then it's super fun, I just wanted to go fast! Its a great way to cover a lot of ground and learn about a city. Our guide Andrew was extremely knowledgeable & professional. Highly recommend!

The Segway training was fun and easy. The tour was great! Even though we have lived in Richmond a long time, it was a lot of fun, and we still learned new things.
Dana_C, Jul 2025
Learning to ride the Segway was really easy. I was definitely nervous, but the training they give you was perfect. The tour was great! Our guide was super knowledgeable and took us to plenty of spots. I really appreciate the city of Richmond putting these historical monuments up. The scenery is beautiful, the history is rich, and I highly recommend this tour.

The Segways were fun, easy to drive, and the tour guide was very informative. Even a couple of guys in their 70's had a great time.
Karen_B, May 2025
It’s not as difficult as you may think. I was so happy to learn that it’s easy and super fun. The history lesson was a great plus!
Michael_K, Apr 2025
The guides were not informed enough about local sights and history. The tour needs to be more informative.
Response from Host, Apr 2025
Thank you for the feedback, and we are so sorry that the tour did not live up to expectations. If it isn't too much trouble, would you mind emailing hdavis@rvaonwheels.com with the day and time you took the tour? It was likely with a newer guide, so we want to be sure we know who needs to work a bit more before leading other tours. We would also like to offer gift certificates for another tour at any point in the future. We hope you will give us another opportunity to show you around Richmond!

Best day ever with out of town friends! Learned so much history and where to go to next. Adding new skills.
Phil_O, Mar 2025
Andrew was the absolute best. Crazy, uncertain weather couldn’t scare us off. He patiently taught two nervous newbies to fall in love with a Segway, then proceeded to give us a masterclass on Richmond! Don’t miss this time!

Great way to see some Richmond land marks. John was our guide and made sure we were all comfortable on the Segway's before we started.
Kai_F, Nov 2024
This is the absolute best way to see the city. John was the perfect tour guide and is very knowledgeable about the city's rich history.
Response from Host, Dec 2024
Thanks so much! We will pass your kind words onto John.

We love Segway tours & this one was one of the best! We enjoyed our guide, Julie, who kept it all at just the right pace to see things along the way. It was nice to hear of the history & highlights of Richmond! We started along the interesting Canal Walk & it was so beautiful going over to Brown’s Island. We went to a beautiful city overlook view & saw the old bridge supports from when the old bridge was burned during the Civil War in April 1865. It was touching to read the famous quotes on the walkway as we went over the beautiful James River. We enjoyed seeing the statues near the lovely, stately Virginia State Capitol & hearing about Richmond’s notable historic people! We highly recommend this tour!

It was a GREAT tour of the downtown area. Our guide was AWESOME! Best way to see a lot of the downtown area.

My friends and I are starting a Segway journey through the US. This one was our first! RVA has set the bar high. Andrew was a great tour guide. Thank you so much!
Karen_J, Sept 2024

Rachel was a wonderful guide! She is enthusiastic and knowledgeable about Richmond and its history and was very enjoyable to spend time with. I highly recommend her as a guide!
Jim_Z, Jul 2024
The tour guide Rachel is very nice and knowledgeable. It was our first time to ride segway. We were afraid of falling at the beginning. After training, the ride is very enjoyable. We had very good experience and time.
Gray_T, Apr 2024
Amazing tour!! Our Guide Andrew was super knowledgeable and made sure to answer all our questions and show us parts of the city we had never seen before!
Melissa_G, Mar 2024
We had such a wonderful time! We booked the Segway history tour, and we're pleasantly surprised to learn We had the tour guide all to ourselves. I guess the 10am tour on the Sunday morning of St. Paddy's day isn't a popular time! Henry, our amazing guide, gave us a pretty unique tour after asking if we were also interested in some of the mural art around the city. We got a blend of both tours! He also pointed out some great eateries and local experiences to check out during our stay, several of which we went on to do later in the day. (Thanks, Henry!) The Segway experience itself was so incredibly fun! Within a couple of minutes, we were both comfortable, ans within a half hour, it felt like an extension of our own bodies - totally intuitive! I highly recommend this unique experience!
Norman_C, Mar 2024
Fantastic initial tour of Richmond. Our guide took us to main sites and shared interesting stories so we could go back to the places that interested us. Also we were running a bit late and they waited up for us. Appreciate the flexibility!
Jane_G, Mar 2024
The history & city- Andrew the tour guide was helpful & interesting. Great family memories - the canal, the river, the capital- I’ll be Touring more!
Jill_W, Feb 2024
Overall, the Richmond Landmark Segway Tour offers a perfect blend of fun and learning, making it an absolute must-do for anyone visiting the area.
The tour was led by the charismatic and knowledgeable guide, John, and was an amazing blend of fun and education.
Zooming through the city streets on Segways added an extra layer of fun to the adventure. This was the first time we were on Segways and after a quick lesson, they are so easy to ride and so much fun. The Segways provide a thrilling way to explore Richmond's iconic landmarks. Highly recommend this tour.

We were only in Richmond for the day but wanted to get to know the city a little. We only did 1 hour tour but it felt much longer. My wife and I picked up the Segway pretty quickly and we were off. We visited some historical sites and our guide John was very knowledgeable about the area and its history. We ended our tour at the state capitol building and the Governors Mansion. I love Richmond and now to buy a Segway.

We had a wonderful time. Henry our guide was informative, and quite engaging. Best way to see and learn about Richmond !!
Philip_C, Sept 2023
We were a little apprehensive about trying a Segway tour but Henry was an excellent teacher and we caught on quickly despite being 70 years old! Great tour! Lots of history that you can cover easily with the Segway. Really nice bike shop too! We will certainly recommend to family and friends. Dont miss this if you are visiting Richmond!
