Edmonton is a pedestrian-friendly city, and many residents get around on bikes, scooters, and skates. While you can get to know Edmonton by walking through the quiet suburban neighborhoods or biking through downtown, Segway tours are a fun and unique way to get to know the city. You can choose your tour based on what you want to see, how much you want to spend, and how much time you want to spend exploring. If you’re new to Segway riding, there are beginner courses that teach you the basics of safely maneuvering a Segway around the city. These courses cover stopping and going, Segway etiquette, navigating hills, and the skills and drills you need to handle the vehicle safely.<\/p>\n

If you’ve ridden a Segway before, advanced classes allow you to bypass this training and get right to the exploration part of the tour. Segways offer a smooth ride and allow you to quickly get from one landmark to the next.<\/p>\n
