The experience

You meet your guide at the getsegway office on Galamb Street, where you get fitted with your Segway and run through safety basics before a supervised test-drive on your own machine. The tour then rolls through downtown Budapest, passing the Hungarian Parliament Building on the Pest side of the Danube, crossing Elisabeth Bridge for views over the river, and stopping at Liberty Square to learn its history. From there you head to the Hungarian State Opera House on Andrássy Avenue, a boulevard lined with luxury boutiques, and continue to St. Stephen's Basilica, the tallest building in the city. The route also takes you to Adam Clark Square near the Buda Hill Funicular and the Zero Kilometre Stone in front of the Chain Bridge.

The guide's commentary runs throughout, and they'll photograph you at key stops. Because you're on a Segway instead of on foot, the route covers ground that would take hours to walk, letting you see the major landmarks and get a sense of the city's layout in a single morning or afternoon. The tour operates with live guides who speak English, Spanish, Italian, French and more than 20 other languages, so you can choose yours when you book.

What's the difference between the 5-minute test-drive and the 90-minute tour?

The 5-minute option is a brief ride at the office to try out a Segway. The 90-minute tour includes that training plus the full route through downtown, visiting Parliament, the bridges, the opera house, St. Stephen's Basilica and the other landmarks.

Do I need Segway experience to join?

No. The tour includes safety training and a supervised test-drive before you start, so you learn on your own machine before the guide leads you through the city.

What happens if I'm not comfortable on the Segway?

The training and test-drive let you get used to the machine at the office. If you're still unsure, you can decide before the tour starts. The operator can advise on alternatives.

What's included in the tour price?

Your personal Segway, all equipment, safety training, the supervised test-drive, the 90-minute guided route, live commentary in your chosen language, and photos taken by your guide.
