Full description

Experience the history of the Belem district via a modern mode of transport. Using a self-balancing Segway, you can explore at your own pace and see more than you would on foot or on a sightseeing bus.

The Segway moves by responding to simple body movements and quickly feels like a natural extension of yourself. This experience to remember will get you up close to historic landmarks without breaking out in a sweat.

You can take the tour alone, with friends, or with family. On arrival, you will be asked to choose from one of the following itineraries on your day of travel: Lisbon by the River; Alfama Tour; or Baixa Chiado.

Explore the city cycle path near the River Tagus, where you can get up to full speed. Look out for historic attractions, such as the Santo Amaro Docks, Belém Tower, Monument to the Discoveries, and more.

We ended up having a private tour with Margarida. She was very kind and extremely patient, as it was our first time on Segways. We actually ended up going through the city, as we booked the Belem tour but had visited that area already. A few things to consider- I did end up falling a couple of times. Margarida was very sweet and had a first aid kit, though I didn’t need it. The Belem tour I think is easier as it is flat and fewer people/ cars to navigate. The stone streets at times were difficult to maneuver. Again, our guide helped me and even held my Segway as we went down some rough, steep hills, but something worth considering, especially if it’s your first time. I enjoy taking pictures and I was unable to do that as I was focused on my driving skills. I will say my partner adapted much better to driving and he was able to take photos and videos. I’m really glad we did it and would be happy to use this company again. Our guide also took some photos of us and sent them at the end.

We had a really great experience. The Segways weren't hard to drive at all and we quickly got used to them. Tony was an awesome guide and he gave us lots of information as well as advice regarding what to visit during our stay. Would 10/10 recommend.
