Had a blast riding around Philly on a Segway! Our man, Pik, was our tour guide and he was so much fun and went ALL IN to make sure we had the best experience. I didn't think I'd like the wiz/with Philly, but honestly it was my favorite! (Processed cheese not usually my thing, but I trust Pik and it was indeed the best!) . Stopping at 4 Philly hotspots, we got the Pik experience by being his first guests to get a CHICKEN cheesesteak from the OG founding restaurant AND experienced the ultimate Philly Taco!
Great tour, fun ride, and awesome guide. Highly recommend!
PS - Pik is a LEGEND riding a Segway and balancing a ton of food , etc. All while guiding us safely around. Very impressive!

Cici was incredible giving an informative and hilarious tour in true philly fashion! We are locals and still enjoyed learning some new facts while trying some cheesesteak places we hadn't been to yet and of course judging them against our favorites. This tour takes you through a big chunk of the city and is a great way to view the sites in center city, old city, and south city. All while taking a relaxing scenic tour through Philly and pausing to eat yummy steaks. But again, the highlight was our tour guide Cici who made us laugh and have an incredible time.

The tour guide Darnell is friendly and kind. The cheese steaks are good, plus the tour allows one to see more of Philadelphia.

Such a fun tour to experience authentic cheesesteaks! However I would like to bring special recognition to Deshon "D" who went ABOVE & BEYOND with his amazing customer service on 9/4 which was truly appreciated!!! What a gem of a person he is & deserves to be acknowledged for it - being incredibly thoughtful, considerate & professional but the list can go on!!! Philly by Segway: KEEP HIM!!!

Mike was a fantastic tour guide! Being a local, he shared many interesting historical facts about the area. He quickly brought us up to speed on learning to ride a Segway safely. The food was delicious so bring a healthy appetite! Thank you for making my daughter’s and my day memorable and special 🙃

This tour was one of the best experiences we had in Philadelphia. James, our tour guide, did an excellent job helping us feel comfortable, and he did a great job navigating us through the streets of Philadelphia. At each stop, our cheesesteaks were ready and excellent. James provided us with information regarding the sites that we traveled by and did so in a way that was enjoyable yet informational. He was very professional and family-friendly in his commentary. Within a few hours, he uploaded all of the photos of us that he took while we were on the tour. The Segways were in great share, and they were all dependable. Your visit to Philadelphia won't be complete if you don't do this tour.

The tour was awesome. "D" was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. He fully trained each one in our party and we didn't leave until everyone was able to maneuver to his safety level. we went all through Philly on the Segways. The entire trip took about 2 hours. As soon as we arrived at each place, he helped us park the Segways and then ran in to get the cheese steak, while we found seating. He took pictures throughout our trip and even air dropped them to each of us at the end. Honestly, I couldn't have asked for a better experience

Tons of fun for my teenagers and myself - a super fun way to see parts of the city and get a meal in too! D was a fantastic guide, lots of fun facts and upbeat!!

Riding through the city and viewing the sites of Philadelphia and listening to the history from our tour guide. The cheesesteaks were delicious and had fun getting to each cheesesteak!

Our guide was great, and died a great job in showing us around. The places they picked were outstanding.

Took the tour with our guide Katie and had a great afternoon! Katie was patient and thorough as she trained us (our fist time on a segway). She was very personable, informative and responsible as she led the tour. Tasting all the cheesesteaks was so much fun too! Great experience, would certainly recommend it.

Excellent tour for 4 seniors. Cheesesteak samples were yummy and not filling. Guide BARRY was knowledgeable and pleasant. The stops were evenly spread apart so as not to be standing on the Segway too long. Would gladly take my grandsons on this tour as soon as they reach at least 100 pounds. Fun, Fun, activity! :

Great way to see a piece of Philadelphia and eat amazing cheesesteak sandwiches!!!

How cool was this? Way cool--motoring around Philly on Segway scooters and cutting the long lines at five--count 'em five--separate, iconic cheesesteak eateries to sample the exquisiteness embodied in the Philly Cheesteak. :- Barry was a great tour guide, and made sure everyone stayed safe on their Segways as we toured downtown Philadelphia from Chinatown to the Italian Market, from Penn Landing to Society Hill. Just enough culture and trivia to satisfy our brains, but basically this was a cheesesteak crawl on scooters! And even novices can become highly proficient on a Segway in about 10 minutes--a very natural vehicle to maneuver. Top marks and a great afternoon overall.
