Overview

Explore Madrid on a next-generation and ecological Segway and behold the monuments from a different perspective on this 1.5- hour tour accompanied by our official guide. Our expert guide will ensure that you feel safe and comfortable before embarking on the tour.
The 1.5-hour tour will first head towards the Plaza de Oriente with its beautiful views of the French gardens. In the background will be the Royal Palace, which is always so impressive in the eyes of visitors and which once housed the Spanish monarchy. Continue to the Almudena Cathedral. Roll across the vast Plaza de España and marvel at the monument of Don Quixote. Then, admire the Temple of Debod, before heading to the Plaza de Isabel II (also known as Plaza de Opera). Admire the ancient site of the Valnadú gate, demolished by order of King Philip II. Observe the neoclassical façade of the Teatro Real, a style giving a cultural touch to many parts of Madrid.

We had a family trip for four. The instructions were personalized, friendly and well explained. The Egeays were in good shape. The route was well planned, avoiding congested áreas. Useful info was provided to better understand the history of Madrid and the layout of the city. Great tour overall.

We paid (45€ per person) for an extended Segway Tour with Me, which is outsourced to a near by Segway provider. The e-bike tours seem to be run by We but not the Segway. Our experience of the staff was good. Relaxed, friendly people. The tour guide was a really nice, a considerate guy. However, his detail was a little brief/minimal whenever we stopped. This was disappointing as we felt a small tour would offer so much more detail about the history, architecture and beauty of this lovely city. In fairness, our tour guide did have two (one a self proclaimed ‘experienced’ Segway rider) tricky, opinionated tourists in our group of five. The tricky two wanted us to go faster, different routes, exhibited impatience with traffic and at one point disappeared. Regardless, you never know who you’ll get to share a tour with so, even though unfortunate for us, the tour guide handled them well enough and maybe that was why other areas were not as detailed. We stopped at various points to have photo opportunities (Metropolis, Palacio de Cristal, El Retiro Park, Royal Palace of Madrid etc.) but the advertised stop at the Cathedral and Crypt did not happen. The tour detail says the cathedral access and crypt tickets are within the price of the tour. On querying this afterwards, We tours admitted you don’t need tickets for the cathedral or crypt so you aren’t gaining anything extra within the price of the Segway tour. This is something they need to change on their advertising as a) we didn’t do it on the extended tour and b) the cathedral and crypt are free to enter anyway whether you are alone or on a tour. The experience was fun. Being on a Segway is fun and a first for us. We had helmets provided but no water (as advertised). There are other tour providers who offer Segway tours and they appear a little more together, as in helmeted with fluro vest, which adds to the feeling that safety is paramount when in a very busy city on main roads. A nice touch at the end of the tour is a glass of bubbles before departing into the bustling streets of a city that keeps giving.

My son and I just completed the Segway tour of Madrid. We landed from New York in the morning and thought this was a great way to cure jet lag. Yanny, our tour guide, did not disappoint. He was energetic and friendly with a vast knowledge of historical points of interest in the city. I highly recommend this tour as a fun and informative way of learning more about the beautiful city of Madrid.

Signed up for this tour last minute and glad I did. In total transparency our 1600 tour did not start until 1630 but the owner of the service was very accommodating and made our wait very pleasant (drinks, great conversation). I consider this an added bonus! Our guide Carlos was excellent and took great care of us. My wife had some trouble driving the Segway but Carlos was able to assist her the entire tour. The tour was fun and laid back. The guide knowledgable. The sites were interesting. Definitely a fun experience!
