Despite the rain, we were provided with ponchos & we had a super tour. James our guide was so knowledgeable & had a wonderful sense of humour. We would certainly recommend this tour & after our beginners lesson on how to ride a Segway we were off. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience.

Super fun. Lauren was great and we learned a lot along the way about the history of Rottnest and went to places we would not have found on our own. Would definitely recommend.

My husband and i had the best time on the segways we would love to do it again the next time we are there

The new flight capable segway.

It's an awesome journey through an interesting history. Some good and some sad but unique to Rottnest all the same. Some pretty steep climbs and decents as well. I didn't realise that the latest segway has flight capability. What will they think of next?

Harriet was our tour guide and was amazing. Very knowledgeable and informative. Very calm and made me feel safe even though I may have had a little panics or two? I would highly recommend doing this. It was a lot of fun and we learnt a lot! Thanks Harriet you were great!

This Segway tour was one of the highlights of our entire WA trip! Harriet was the perfect guide; extremely patient, knowledgeable, and an absolute delight to be around. Had never been on a Segway before but found it extremely easy and incredibly fun!

Loved this Experience - Just do it!

Loved this experience. It was small group of three, with Josie as our tour guide. She was great, giving us detailed explanations and answering questions, along the way. We had an earpiece so we could easily hear her. We had a 5-10min explanation of how the use the Segway. We picked it up quickly. We stopped at picturesque bays and beaches, as well as places of interest. The only disappointment was that the tour ended! Fantastic experience and a great way to get to know this beautiful island. Highly recommended. Thank you Josie.

A great day out.

Adam was great, very patient and encouraging. We really enjoyed seeing the Island on the Segways. We had a lot of fun learning how to balance and control the Segways.

Fantastic fun!

We had a few hours to kill and did a spontaneous Segway ride. It was a great way to see the Island and learn some really interesting things. The tour guide Jill was amazing and had so many interesting facts to tell us. Seaways were easy to ride.

Segway fun
