Happy Customers
“I brought a group of 6 to ride Segways for 2 hours around Jack London Square which also included going around Lake Merritt. Drew made sure we knew the basics of how to maneuver, start, stop turn, get on and off in the parking lot. We drove a nearby street to make sure we could handle it, which he changed the setting to a faster mode for us to zip around the tour. Drew gave us history of locations and took plenty of pictures of us. I am looking forward to my next trip of going to Redwood Regional Park.”
