Pedagogy at the top for the handling and the safety side. Nice walk, beautiful discovery just remains to perfect the knowledge a little in order to answer any questions from tourists but in a few groups it will be at the top for the season. Truly a beautiful experience and a beautiful memory. RC

All the staff was very friendly though we were 5 minutes late. The correct meeting point is 9 rue des vieilles douves not place Royale. Our children (11 and 9 years old), my husband and I have found this first Segway experience very pleasant. Sure it will not be the last!

Very well, on a privatized visit because I was alone. Thanks to the guide for her kindness

Unfortunately, the guide hardly spoke any English, but he caught up with his nice manner.

Very interesting and original guided tour thanks to the segway trip.
