Great Segway Tour around Santa Maria

Judith_G, Jan 2025
We really enjoyed our tour yesterday with No Limits Adventure. Vanessa was a great guide who was very patient and caring especially over some of the more challenging terrain. I can certainly recommend this tour.

Great experience!

We had a very friendly tour guide who gave us a quick tutorial before we went on the road....surprisingly my 8 year old was the most confident out of the three of us! We had a fantastic time navigating the terrain and stopped at the beach for a break to buy some souvenirs before heading back. I actually looked to see if we could have another go before we headed home but unfortunately they were fully booked!

Not what I expected

The beach was nice, not much going on down there but very picturesque. We went down to the beach very slowly and back very slowly, I didnt know that was the only stop, it shouldn't be classed as a tour. It became very clear when we got back that was the reason why we was going so slow🐌 because there was no other stop. We have been on quite a few segway tours, and this was definitely not a tour. Lucy was really nice though, it's ashame because this is not negative about Lucy, just the actual "tour"

Response from Host, Sep 2024

Thank you for your review and observation as these always help us improve. Our 45 minutes tour has always had just one stop which is Ponta Preta beach. Sometimes according to the experience of our guests we do adjust the tour but probably by Lucy being a new guide she did not do it. We are sorry you did not enjoy the tour as much as you wanted. Kind regards from our team.

Not a Tour of Santa Maria

Steve, Feb 2024
The Segway Tour was sold to us as a a 'tour of the town of Santa Maria' (as above). However, when we got there we were told that Segways were not allowed in the town of Santa Maria. Instead we went out the back from the parade of shops where the tours are managed, over some tiled roads, then went off road, down to the coastline, but away from the the town. We then returned via pathway alongside the road, and through some newly built apartments, back to the shop. We saw nothing of the town during the tour at all. We have used Segways around the world and use them instead of walking as you can get around quicker. We did not need just a Segway experience, we are very experienced in using a Segway. Think you need to change the title of you tour.

Great experience

Thoroughly enjoyed yourselves. The guide Emmanuel was great and will help with pictures and videos. Lovely views when riding.

My wife and I enjoyed an excellent 1.5 hour tour with Stefan whose instruction and demonstration on controlling the Segway was clear and easy to follow. Stefan has lived on Sal for 3 years and is very knowledgeable about the island and its history. Would thoroughly recommend.

I loved this Segway tour - I wish there were others exploring different parts of the island. I was picked up exactly on time and our tour guide was very knowledgeable about all the places we went to. I had only ridden a Segway once years ago and the other girl had never ridden one but we were easily able to pick it up. Great way to see unusual places around Santa Maria.

A truely unique way to see Santa Maria. Excellent training to put you at ease with with Segway, then it's off to see the salinas. Across the sand onto the beautiful Ponta Preta beach. Our guide was able to share her knowledge of the places we visited. I would recommend this tour if you fancy a different mode of transport to see Santa Maria at your pace.
