Training Session

Riding a Segway is similar to riding a bike-it's intuitive but nobody is born knowing how to operate it. That's why the tour time includes 40-45 minutes of rider training so you can get comfortable on the Segway before we head out on the route.

The training session provides first-time riders with the skills, knowledge, and experience needed to safely operate the Segway. You'll be guided through a simulated obstacle course of cones, turns, and an emergency stop to ensure a safe, enjoyable experience. Training includes:

  • Hands-on training with an instructor, introductory video, test ride and skills review, rider courtesy instruction and review of the rules of the road.

Sausalito
Sausalito is a picture perfect destination north of San Francisco across the Golden Gate Bridge.

On the Wetlands Trail
The tour route follows the Bay trail - Enjoy great views of Richardson Bay, wetlands, sailboat harbors, houseboat communities and the remains  of the WWII shipyards.
