Had never ridden a Segway before so was a bit anxious about it. Doing the tour with my 13 yo son who is super coordinated! However I cannot thank the owner, Yves, highly enough for his incredibly patient and helpful instruction. He was fantastic and had me riding the Segway in about 10-15 mins. Then we had a lovely guide, Salome, who took us on a wonderful ride thru Strasbourg - she shared lots of great info about the city and she was a great guide. Amazing experience. Thank you so much!
