Wow- Enjoyed this Tour! It was conducted over on Douglas Island. New-well maintained Segways. Tour guide provided informative information through out the tour. Even have microphones so that you can hear the guide speaking as you glide along. Tour was done at a comfortable pace. Great way to see scenery and wildlife. Next time I visit the Juneau area I am going to try the Alpine Meadow Trail Segway Tour.

A new experience on seeing Alaska. As first timers on a segway I was a little hesistant at first but you get wonderful hands on instructions with the guides and they ensure safety first. You learn lots of great facts about Juneau and it was a great time. Worth every penny!
