Historic Uptown Neighborhood Segway Tour of Charlotte

Overview
Buzz through Charlotte’s hopping Uptown neighborhood on this Segway tour of North Carolina’s biggest city! NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY (but participants must weigh at least 100 lbs. and can't be expecting a baby). We thoroughly and carefully train each guest BEFORE the 1.5 tour begins. It's FUN and EASY! Follow your local guide as you glide throughout the city, viewing our unique architecture, art, parks, and historic spaces. Our city has a fascinating history, and you can see it all UP CLOSE on a Segway! Choose either a 1.5- hr or 2-hour ride (the longer tour has limited availability). This is a GREAT, POPULAR tour of Uptown Charlotte, however we are often unable to accommodate guests who arrive late. PROMPT ARRIVAL IS A MUST FOR THIS TOUR. THANK YOU!!!

With less than 24 hours to spend in Charlotte, we opted for the 1.5 hour historic tour and are SO glad we did! Tremaine was an outstanding guide and this was a fantastic way to see the city. I had never been on a Segway before (but my companion had) and it was easy, comfortable and most of all, fun! Tremaine was an amazing fountain of knowledge and his passion for his "little big city" shows. It was a great trip and we highly recommend it.

We took the sunset 2 hour tour. First time on a segway, took about 5 minutes (I am a woman of a certain age...) to get comfortable. Tye was our tour guide, and he was fabulous! He pointed out all the points of interest, and he had us get off our ride to take some awesome pictures. This is a wonderful fun way to see uptown! Highly recommend using this company on this or other segway tours as they were extremely professional and courteous and easily this was the best time we had on the trip - an amazing way to see the city! Thanks, Tye!

I’ve wanted to do this tour for at least two years and was scared. Thought I would surely fall in the middle of Tryon and Trade streets! My instructor was AWESOME and PATIENT! I got myself together and off we went. To see the beautiful places Charlotte NC has to offer. Of course we went to The Square at N Tryon & Trade, 😊4th Ward to see histoial homes, Panther stadium, how the streets got their names, etc . I would recommend this to anybody who wants to see Charlotte, on three wheels and a handle bar.
