Frequently Asked Questions
-
Do you have a restroom? Does the tour make restroom stops?
The Golden Gate Park Segway Tour start location has public restrooms next to the training area. We will make at least one restroom stop on all tours approximately 1+ hours after we begin training.
-
What should I wear? I have heard it is cold and windy in San Francisco during the Summer.
It is cold and can be very windy in San Francisco! Dress comfortable and in layers. Highly recommended: Comfortable closed toe flat and an extra layer of warm, wind resistant clothing. Gloves are recommended during the winter months. With the chilly wind, wet fog and damp environment along the waterfront shorts and a t-shirt are NOT a good fashion idea.
-
How long, fast and far can I ride?
The San Francisco Segway Tour has a top speed of about 8 -10 miles per hour. A Segway can average about 24 miles between battery charges. A fully charged battery will last with constant riding for approximately 6 hours. Riding times vary with hills, rider weight and speed. Segway has settings that limit the top speed.
