Knowing we had only one day in Philly, and coming off running almost 200 miles the previous two, I knew a walking tour was not in the cards. I found this company on Trip Advisor, and I couldn't have been happier. My group and I had never been on Segways before, but Barry did an amazing job of getting us acquainted with them, and we felt like pros by the time the tour was over. Barry was a great tour guide, and his ability to focus so successfully on our safety and simultaneously keep us entertained was really impressive!
First, I would like to stress that Deshon was a great guide. We felt very safe navigating through the city. He was very knowledgeable about the landmarks and the history of Philadelphia.
Unfortunately, the communication system, walkie-talkies, was a poor fit for this tour. The wind was blowing, so we whizzed by many significant landmarks without narration, only a crackling noise out of the walkies. We told D about the problem, so he gave us occasional updates when we were at traffic lights between attractions. He did the best he could with what he had.
I would not recommend this tour. We had to return to the sights at the beginning of the tour, on foot, on our own, which defeated the purpose of the Segway tour.
