Great fun with a great guide!
What a great time! Captain J was such a great tour guide. So friendly and knowledgeable. He made us feel very comfortable riding a Segway through Boston traffic even though we were so scared at first. He also took a lot of great pics for us. Going down my the water was a highlight too! Not sure I could have done 2 hours, it's a little harder on the feet and legs than I expected, but lots of fun!!

Super fun
When I first got on, I was like oh I can't do this within a couple of minutes and well before we left on our tour, I was completely comfortable on the machine. We did this yesterday and we still are talking about how much fun we had . Very entertaining and I think a great value.

Great experience
We took the one hour Segway tour with Emmett. Emett made sure that we were comfortable on the segways before taking us out. He did a fantastic job of narrating the tour and pointing out landmarks and other points of interest. We were also appreciative that Emmett made sure that our son had a good time. Would definitely recommend this tour.

Why this scores 65
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
1 Hour Boston Segway Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Boston.
How much does 1 Hour Boston Segway Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $69 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Boston usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 1 Hour Boston Segway Tour take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Boston is not rushed.
Is 1 Hour Boston Segway Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 72 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Boston, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 1 Hour Boston Segway Tour?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is 1 Hour Boston Segway Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 1 Hour Boston Segway Tour?
+
Around 25 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Boston can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Boston and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 1 Hour Boston Segway Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Boston within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Boston?
+
Boston is compact enough that a good walking guide beats any bus. Freedom Trail walks, harbour cruises, Fenway tours and whale-watch runs out to Stellwagen Bank are the core, plus Salem and Cape Cod as day trips. Outty Ranking weights guide storytelling and group size heavily, because on the Freedom Trail the narration is the entire product. On Outty we rank every Boston experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Full Revolutionary Story Epic Small-Group Boston Walking Tour, Boston: Freedom Trail History Small Group Walking Tour, Boston's Freedom Trail: A Revolutionary Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Boston?
+
May to October. Whale watching runs roughly April through October only. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Boston?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in 1 Hour Boston Segway Tour?
+
Included: 1-hour guided segway tour of downtown Boston; Private training session before the tour begins; Expert Captain guide with live historical narration throughout; All safety equipment including helmet and walkie talkie; and Photos taken by your Captain at key stops along the route. Not included: Gratuity for your Captain (appreciated but not required); Public transportation (bus, subway, cable car, etc.); and Food and beverages. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for 1 Hour Boston Segway Tour?
+
Please meet inside the Boston Segway Tours shop at the corner of Surface Road and State Street. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is 1 Hour Boston Segway Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 1 Hour Boston Segway Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
What happens to 1 Hour Boston Segway Tour if the weather is bad?
+
It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Boston. Standard cancellation terms apply.
