Brilliant way to see the city with children who are not keen on walking !
I booked the sightseeing tour for our first morning in Madrid so we could learn about the city and navigate a bit as we had not been before . None of us had ever been on a Segway , adult and 2 children 14 and 11. We all got the hang of the Segway with instruction within 5 minutes and we were off . This was a great way to sightsee with children as the adults get to see the sights and the children get to ride a Segway so their interest is kept up and no complaints about too much walking ! We learnt a lot and our guide Jacob was very good , took his time with us and was very safety conscious even pointing out pot holes etc as we were navigating around. We really enjoyed the tour and was a good activity for a family. It was that good I booked another tour around Retiro park a couple of days later . Again, there’s no way the children would have walked around the park but I got to see it and a bit more of Madrid courtesy of being on the Segway and the children had a good ride , so worked for all of us. The Retiro park trip was more riding than the city tour , enjoyed both. I booked direct by using the WhatsApp chat function and I got sent a payment link to pay a deposit and paid the full amount on arrival . I would recommend doing this even with no Segway experience as they were easy to ride and handle no need to be worried about it at all .

Andrea was a wonderful...
Andrea was a wonderful guide who introduced us the Madrid as it was our first day there. The Segway’s allowed us to cover a lot of ground in a short time. This was a top notch introduction to Madrid and its history.

Sunset Segways & a Brilliant Guide in Madrid
We booked a Segway tour around Madrid and it turned out to be one of the best things we did on the trip. Our guide, Oscar, was brilliant. Really friendly from the start, put everyone at ease straight away and made the whole thing feel relaxed and easy. None of us were Segway experts, but he explained everything clearly and within a few minutes we were off, gliding around like we knew what we were doing. Riding through Madrid as the sun was setting was something special. The light over the buildings and the parks was beautiful, and it felt like we were seeing the city at its best. We covered loads of the main sights without it ever feeling rushed, and being on Segways just made it more fun than walking. Oscar really knew his stuff too. He shared loads of interesting bits about the history and the city, but in a way that felt natural and engaging rather than like a lecture. You could tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and that makes a big difference. All in all, a really great experience. Fun, interesting and a brilliant way to see Madrid. Would absolutely recommend.

Wonderfully fun Segway...
Wonderfully fun Segway tour with very knowledgeable guide, Jacob. Highlight was the overlook with royal palace and cathedral below.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re thrilled to hear you had such a fun Segway experience and that Jacob made the tour even better with his knowledge and passion. That overlook with the Royal Palace and the Cathedral is definitely a favorite—one of those Madrid views you don’t forget. We’d love to welcome you back for another adventure!

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Highlights of Madrid Tour by Segway: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Madrid.
How much does Highlights of Madrid Tour by Segway cost?
+
Prices start at $45 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Madrid usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Highlights of Madrid Tour by Segway 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 Madrid is not rushed.
Is Highlights of Madrid Tour by Segway worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 85 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Madrid, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Highlights of Madrid Tour by Segway?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Highlights of Madrid Tour by Segway 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 Highlights of Madrid Tour by Segway?
+
Around 30 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 Madrid 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 Madrid and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Highlights of Madrid Tour by Segway 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 Madrid 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 Madrid?
+
On Outty we rank every Madrid experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Madrid Essential: Historic Center, Plaza Mayor & Royal Palace, Madrid Walking Tour from Puerta del Sol to Retiro Park, Madrid Tapas & Wine Tour with Rooftop Views and Local Guide. 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 Madrid?
+
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 Madrid?
+
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 Highlights of Madrid Tour by Segway?

Not included: Gratuities; Hotel pickup and drop-off; Food or beverages; and Accident insurance (1.85€). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Highlights of Madrid Tour by Segway?
+
Wonder Tours (Tour Operator) Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Highlights of Madrid Tour by Segway offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
