Two Hours on a Segway Through Amsterdam's Museum Quarter & Canal Bridges

You spend two hours on a Segway rolling through Amsterdam's inner city with a local guide, passing the Rijksmuseum, Dam Square, Jordaan, Magere Brug, and Rembrandt House. All equipment—Segway, helmet, instruction—is included. Groups stay small at four people, and the pace lets you actually absorb the canals and architecture instead of rushing past them.

The Experience

★★★★★★★★★★ 4.76 (280 reviews)

The Magere Brug—that narrow wooden bridge spanning the Amstel River—is the kind of place most tourists photograph from a distance. On a Segway tour, you roll right up to it, stop, and actually look at the thing instead of just passing through. Two hours doesn't sound like much time to cover Amsterdam's inner city, but the pace of a Segway changes what you can actually see. You're moving slow enough to notice the light on the water, the way the Jordaan's narrow streets fold into each other, the detail on the Rembrandt House that you'd miss from a bike seat.

The tour moves through the main landmarks—Dam Square, the Rijksmuseum, Museum Quarter, the old Harbour's city gate, even Chinatown—but it's the rhythm that matters. A local guide leads groups of four, which keeps things intimate without feeling rushed. You get a helmet, closed-toe flat shoes are required (high heels won't work), and the equipment is all there waiting for you. The Segway itself takes maybe ten minutes to get the hang of; most people find it steadier than they expect, and the guide won't move the group forward until everyone's comfortable.

Weather doesn't stop the tour—it runs in almost all conditions, so dress for what's coming. The main thing to know is that you need to weigh under 265 pounds to operate the machine, and there are a few medical conditions that make it not suitable (serious back or heart issues, pregnancy). If you're sixteen or older and can stand on a moving platform, the guide will get you through it. Minimum booking is two people, and you'll ride as part of a small group rather than solo.

What’s included

Your tour includes a local guide leading the group, the Segway rental and helmet, and all equipment needed to ride. Instruction is provided before departure, and the guide stays with the group throughout the two-hour route around the Museum Quarter, Dam Square, Jordaan, Magere Brug, Rembrandt House, and inner-city highlights.
