Tooks a 5:30pm tour. Excellent time for a tour, started in the daylight, ended after dark. This was by far the BEST tour in downtown Tampa that we have ever taken. The segway's all worked excellent. Our guide Daniel was very friendly and extremely informative about all the awesome places that we rode. We went down the river walk and had a wonderful time. Very highly recommend. Also, for the price of the tour, you can't beat the views and information. This was the first time everyone had rode a Segway. Excellent training before the tour, then a wonderful trip. Great Job Daniel!!

  • Mark McElroy

Don't be confused -- this business also goes by the name "Tampa Magic Carpet Glide." It's the same operation. Fortunately for us, this was our first (and best ever) Segway tour. Zipping along the coast, a college campus, and locations around Tampa at sunset was the highlight of our trip. A great guide can make all the difference, too -- and we were lucky enough to get Bobby, who was comfortable enough on the Segways to allow us to be a little adventurous when situations warranted having less closely supervised fun. Highly recommended.

My Wife and I were already having a wonderful time on our Vacation in Tampa and this was just the perfect way to send it off. Marshall was our tour guide for the morning and was just incredible through and through. Very kind, helpful, and knowledgable of the area. It was only us 3 for the day and it couldn't have been a better time that he showed us. My only regret is that we didn't do it the day we came. I have nothing but good things to say about our experience!

  • Mary Platt

Our tour guide was "Tyler". He is the absolute best. My sister and I have never ridden a Segway before and he definitely made sure that we felt comfortable before we went out. He explained everything. We even did some practice runs before we left .He's personable, funny, knowledgeable about the Tampa area and made it fun . This was so easy and so much fun. The weather was perfect . We will definitely be back next year. Thank you Tyler ❤️

Being Segway rookies we were all tentative about the tour. Our tour guides Dan & Mike were absolutely great and helped settle the nerves. They spent 15-20 minutes going over the do’s & don’ts. Once we set out on the tour we all adjusted quickly and had an awesome time. They stopped a few times for short breaks which was a good idea, the “sea-legs” appreciated the break. We all started out nervous & wound up having an awesome tour experience!

  • Justin sneed

My son and I were on vacation in Tampa area and I seen something about a Segway tour and my son was very interested. We signed up and I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. Even though it was a little brisk the morning we went our tour guide was so helpful and very friendly! He did a great job, my son and my self thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the Tampa area! Would def recommend this tour to friends that were exploring the area!

  • Desiree Forsyth

I did it a few months ago with my mom (63y/o), we LOVED LOVED it. It was fun, funny and very informative. Our tour guide Danny was the BEST. I treated 6 other family members to a ride a few months later and they absolutely loved it too. I highly recommend this segway tour company in Tampa! None of us had previous experience on a segway but it was easy and we all very quickly got the hang of it.

  • Jennifer Hopkins

Aron was our tour guide and he was fantastic. We happened to go in the middle of a week day so wasn’t crowded. It was an awesome adventure. At first I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to do it because I’m not very coordinated, but my fears were quickly dissipated when Aron got me on the Segway and we started going! If you’re in Tampa and have 2.5 hours to spare then do it!

  • Mrs TrinaSue Lammert

We had a fantastic time. Our tour guide, Austin was so patient with me, showing me how to "Segway" as this was our first time and after a few minutes of practice and coaching i got it and we were off to see the city of Tampa. This is a great way to see the city. We will be taking Segway tours where ever they're available! Well worth the money!

  • Kat Hamby

This tour was seriously awesome! Danny took such good care of us, we had a bachelorette party and this was our daytime adventure. He was so funny and knowledgeable and it's very easy to ride a segway! The sights are beautiful, right on the riverwalk and the incredible armature works market and food court. Highly recommend!!! Thank you Danny!

  • Cinzia Ianniciello Anderson

What a great way to spend an afternoon! Our tour guide Barrett was very friendly, patient, and showed us around downtown Tampa, Riverwalk area. It was a bit crowded for a Saturday afternoon, so we're thinking of going again but on a weekday. Riding a segway is so much fun! And my 10yr old mastered it within a few minutes. Highly recommend!

  • Brandon Rodriguez

First time using a Segway today and my friends and I all had a blast! Danny was a great dude and helped us find some cool spots to check out for the duration of our vacation! Had an amazing time for the least grateful to have experienced it! Will definitely do it again 10/10 Thanks again Danny From - Brandon, Marcus, Sky, & Ashley

  • Jack Howard

Went on the night time tour last night from 8PM to 930PM. It was awesome. We had a group of 6 total, 4 were in my group and our tour guide Danny was great. Went to all the major spots in Tampa on a segway and he shared some pretty cool insights into the revitalization of Tampa. Will most likely do this tour again in the future.

Not impressed with someone using the feature box "Tampa Segway Tours" taking a photo of ours "Destination360" under copyright and of a competitor for their marketing purposes. This feature box shouldn't link to Magic Carpet Glide as its not their company name. Have reported this and the copyright issue to Google.

Thanks to #Tampa segway tours we were able to do a Segway tour in Tampa with Geoff. We’ve enjoyed it so much, Geoff was great too and told us some history about Tampa we didn’t know. Thanks for your energy and your guidance during our tour. It’s definitely a must do while visiting Tampa!!!

  • Brad Weatherly

Brian did a great job of teaching and leading us. The tour was very informative. Brian shared a lot of history about old Tampa and kept things light and fun. I was a little apprehensive about trying a segway but can now say it's really easy. I enjoyed it so much I would do it again.

  • jillean spradley

Just finished a tour with "Aron" ( AAron with 1 "A") He was polite, professional and very knowledgeable of Tampa's historical timeline. The weather was awesome during the 8pm tour. I can't wait to return. Awesome experience and definitely would recommend a segway tour!!!!

  • Richard Darrell

This is our third time with this group. We did the St. Petes tour and Christen was fabulous. Very knowledgable and friendly. Great that met at pub. We got a drink after with the group. Definitely with $$$. Kudo's to Jonathon for helping get us set up last minute.

  • Lane Furey

Bobby was our tour guide and he was awesome!!! This was one of the funnest things I've done in a long, long time and I'm from Tampa! Learning to ride and operate the Segway took little effort and I felt very very safe. Had a blast with my husband and mom!

  • Kris Shannon

A terrific experience! Once you're on them for a few minutes it's easy going. I might suggest going it more oftentimes because sometimes traffic could be tricky. Friendly tour guide and an amazing time seeing highlights of the riverfront area!

  • Robert Ramirez

What a great experience with my 17 year old daughters! We learned a lot about Tampa and our tour guide was amazing who was the owner. I would recommend doing this with your family when visiting Tampa.

  • Diane Zuroweste

Omg! No matter what your age! This is an outstanding way to see and be educated about St Pete! Ask for Oliver! He actually lives in St Pete and his passion and love for his city was amazing!
