Ren was an amazing guide and was super patient and supportive of my limitations, allowing me a break whenever I needed. She was extremely knowledgeable and told us all about New Orleans history as well as providing great recommendations for food and the other don’t miss activities. Thank you Ren!!😀

REN was such a good host and she was very knowledgeable of the whole city. The tour was so amazing. It rained on us for a cool minute, but stopped, but it was fun in the rain also. Would definitely do it again!

Incredible Segway Tour with Ren

Ren was our tour guide and she was incredible. She was so knowledgeable about New Orleans history and was able to answer many of our questions. She also made sure that we were comfortable on our segways and ensured that we stayed safe.

Ren was very good at...

Srivani_S, Mar 2026
Ren was very good at navigating through the streets safely and at making sure everyone stayed together. For the 2 hours of the tour, I feel we could have seen a lot more and learned much more history. Also the pace was slower than we were used to and at times people were walking faster than us riding the segway.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you for your feedback, we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We’re very glad to hear you felt safe and enjoyed Ren’s guidance, she takes great pride in making sure everyone is comfortable and taken care of throughout the tour. We understand your comments about the pace and the amount of historical information. Our tours are designed to balance safety, group cohesion, and a relaxed experience for all riders, but we truly value your input and will take it into consideration as we continue improving. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future.

Amazing experience give it a go!

Excellent. REN did a great job. Toured all around bourbon street and cemetery. Great way to spend a couple hours.

Great way to sightsee!

A great way to see the whole French Quarter. Ren, our guide was friendly, knowledgeable about the history and great places to go and super safety minded. We really enjoyed getting to see so many places on this 5 mile tour and would recommend it to everyone.

It’s a plus if you have...

Paula_C, Sep 2025
It’s a plus if you have segway experience because of rough roads and traffic. But it is easy to learn. Guide knew a lot about history of New Orleans. Morning times less sweaty and less traffic. Enjoyed the trip
