The Experience
The first thing I noticed was the breeze off the Swan River—cooler than I expected for a city afternoon. After a quick run-through on how to handle the Segway (honestly, easier than it looks), we set off from the edge of Elizabeth Quay. Our guide, Jamie, had this knack for pointing out little things—like where the black swans nest near the water’s edge or which café does the best flat white if you’re back in the area later.
We cruised past the Bell Tower—its chimes echoing faintly over the river—and then zipped through Elizabeth Quay itself. There’s always something happening here: street performers, kids chasing seagulls, even a couple of kayakers paddling by. The path took us right up to Kings Park’s base, but what really surprised me was John Oldham Park. Hidden fountains and these tucked-away waterfalls made it feel like we’d stumbled onto a secret garden in the middle of downtown.
It wasn’t just about sightseeing; gliding along with that gentle hum under your feet is half the fun. The radio earpiece meant we didn’t miss any stories or quirky facts from Jamie—even when we spread out a bit along the foreshore. By the end, I felt like I’d seen a different side of Perth—one you’d probably miss on foot or in a car.
What’s included
Your ride includes Segway training and assessment, use of all safety equipment, personal radio headset so you can hear your guide clearly, plus a friendly local guide who knows all those little details about Perth’s riverside scene.
