Combine the fun of touring San Francisco by Segway with the personal touch of having a private guide attentive to your group’s interests and skills featuring Fisherman’s Wharf and great views of the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz. You’ll be able to cover more ground than walking and enjoy the fun of the Segway personal transporter for a once-in-a-lifetime experience while touring San Francisco! A minimum of 2 people per booking is required.
20 min - Riding a Segway is intuitive, like bike-riding, but it takes a moment to learn how to operate it. You'll have 35-45 minutes of Segway training before beginning your tour, so that you become comfortable. You will practice until your group feels familiar with the Segway, then be ready to tour San Francisco! Once you’re rolling, you’ll follow your guide along the streets of San Francisco on a 3-hour tour, with the ability to cover more distance than on a typical walking tour and plenty of opportunities to stop for photos and questions along the way. You’ll have more time than on the regular public tour, and your guide will be able to adjust the itinerary and pace to your group’s interests and skills.

This tour was awesome! Going up and down all the hills was so easy! Tour guide was very informative and knowledgeable about San Francisco. Would highly recommend.
This was a great trip. We visited several of San Francisco's famous hills including Telegraph Hill (where we visited Coit Tower) and Russian Hill and we even finished off at the top of the crooked part of Lombard Street and went down the hill on the Segways. Our tour leader Adam was great -- knowledgeable and personable.
Fantastic tour around San Francisco, Susan was a brilliant guide, showed us around all the sights and even went down Lombard street, he’s a knowledgeable and entertaining guy, definitely book again if we ever get back to San Francisco and will definitely ask for him again.
We had a great tour. Our guide, Susan, was friendly and entertaining ,as you can see from the picture.
We took the 3-hour private Wharf & Hills of San Francisco segway tour and had an excellent time! Our tour guide, Jack, was very personable, fun and informative. There's not a better way to see such so quickly, especially in a place with such hilly terrain as San Francisco. We've taken tours in several cities in the US and Europe and this rated right up there with all the best.
