Give it a shot
Had a great time, would haves it to be a little longer,but the guides were very friendly and knowledgeable about the area
Response from the operator: Thank you for joining us and for your review! We’re glad you had a great time and enjoyed exploring the area with our guides. We understand wishing the tour could have been a little longer! Our Coastal Segway Tour includes about 1.5 hours of riding, along with time to get off the Segways and explore the rainforest and coastline on foot. The riding portion allows us to cover quite a bit of the beautiful coastal area, while the walking portion gives us a chance to slow down and take in the forest, plants, wildlife, and scenery from a different perspective. We’re happy to hear you found our guides friendly and knowledgeable. Our guides are Alaskan experts with lots to share, and we love giving our guests the opportunity to experience Juneau beyond the busy tourist areas. We hope you’ll join us again on your next visit!

Wonderful experience for first time Segway riders!
This was our first time on a Segway. Our guide was very clear giving instructions on how to control the Segway and making sure that we were comfortable turning, going forward and back and stopping before embarking on our journey. We had a delightful trip along the coast along with a walk through a forest to the beach.
Response from the operator: Thank you for joining us and for sharing your experience! We love hearing from guests who are riding a Segway for the first time. Our guides take the time to provide thorough training and make sure everyone feels comfortable and confident with their Segway before we head out on the trail. We’re so glad you enjoyed exploring the coastline and taking the walk through the Tongass National Rainforest to the beach. We want our guests to do more than just see Alaska, we want them to experience it, learn about the rainforest, and connect with the beautiful places we get to call home. Thank you for letting us share a little piece of Juneau with you!

Two wheels so much better than two legs
Alli was an enthusiastic and wonderful guide, who made our scenic tour of Juneau's bay such an enjoyable experience; we were also pleasantly surprised by the short hike through the forest to the water's edge - beautiful and interesting. Alli has some great bear stories to share too!
Response from the operator: Thank you for joining us! I am so happy to hear you enjoyed your scenic ride along Juneau’s coastline and the rainforest walk to the water’s edge. That walk is one of our favorite parts of the experience, it’s a beautiful way to get a closer look at the rainforest and the incredible landscape that surrounds Juneau. Our guides are Alaska experts and love sharing their local knowledge, stories, and experiences with our guests, so we’re especially glad you enjoyed the bear stories! There is always something interesting to discover when exploring Alaska with our guides. Thank you for choosing us and for taking the time to share your experience!

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Segway Coastal Scenic Rainforest Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Juneau.
How much does Segway Coastal Scenic Rainforest Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $177 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Juneau usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Segway Coastal Scenic Rainforest Tour take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Juneau is not rushed.
Is Segway Coastal Scenic Rainforest Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 327 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Juneau, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Segway Coastal Scenic Rainforest Tour?
+
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 Segway Coastal Scenic Rainforest Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Segway Coastal Scenic Rainforest Tour?
+
Around 114 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 Juneau 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 Juneau and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Segway Coastal Scenic Rainforest 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 Juneau 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 Juneau?
+
Juneau runs Mendenhall Glacier trips, whale watching in Auke Bay, helicopter glacier landings with dog sledding, and rainforest hikes. Most tours are timed to cruise ship windows, so we weight clear duration and pickup detail. On Outty we rank every Juneau experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Juneau Wildlife Whale Watching, Juneau Wildlife Whale Watching & Mendenhall Glacier, Whales and Wilderness Exploration. 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 Juneau?
+
May to September, peaking for humpbacks in June and July. 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 Juneau?
+
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 Segway Coastal Scenic Rainforest Tour?
+
Included: Bottled water; Snacks; Hands Free Radio for hearing tour facts & highlights; Safety Helmet; and Rain Poncho if needed. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Segway Coastal Scenic Rainforest Tour?
+
We pickup in front of the Mt. Roberts Tramway building on the road side of the building. You will be directly under tram cables located at 490 South Franklin St, Juneau Alaska. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Segway Coastal Scenic Rainforest 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 Segway Coastal Scenic Rainforest 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.
Is Segway Coastal Scenic Rainforest Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Segway Coastal Scenic Rainforest Tour if the weather is bad?
+
This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
What do travelers say about Segway Coastal Scenic Rainforest Tour?
+
