My husband & I had the pleasure of going on our first Segway tour this past weekend. This family run business is top notch and I would highly recommend it to anybody. They spent a lot of time training us on how to use the machine which made me feel safe and confident once we headed on the tour. We would periodically stop to take pictures & hear more about the history of the different homes, parks, and lakes that we passed. We look forward to going on the canalside tour with this group next summer!!!

100% Awesome!!
Purchased a private tour with the company. They took the time to train us on the Segway while entertaining us with their upbeat humor. For anyone who has never been on a Segway before this is the most important part of the day. You learn how to balance yourself on the Segway, how to maneuver around cones designed to mimic obstacles on your outdoor adventure, and, most importantly, how to slow down to a stop.
The adventure did not
stop there. After gearing up with helmets for safety, we took to the streets of Buffalo and learned about the history of the Pan American Exposition. We were able to stop for photo opportunities. Along the way they continued to provide a wealth of knowledge about the area and its history. Humor was the driving force of the tour and it was a welcomed experience. They were able to tailor the tour to personal interests/inquiries about the area as well.
There's no other
touring company like this one around. Take advantage of this wonderful opportunity. It's great for couples, families, friends, and much more.
We took the Segway tour at Disney's EpCot before they were discontinued.
We also took the Segway tour in downtown St. Louis.
After taking the Segway tour offered by The Buffalo Touring Company we can say it was the best, most interesting and fun of our three adventures.
Thanks,
Jess and Stan

Had a great time learning about the history of Buffalo and seeing some historical sites with a different view. Riding the Segway was so much fun!! Brandon and Norm did a thorough job of training us so everyone felt comfortable. Loved that we had a small group. Very personal tour and they spent time answering all our history questions. Would recommend to all! You'll love it!

Our family had a great time this past weekend. A beautiful day and just a great historical tour of the area around the history museum and Delaware Park. We highly recommend it...Segway training was awesome!!

Took the tour in celebration of my husband's birthday. This was the second time we were on a Segway Tour (previously in New Hampshire). WE HAD A BALL!!! Norm and Brandon gave extensive safety training prior to our tour and we climbed on with no inhibitions ( and no mishaps along the way).
We upgraded to a private tour and learned things about Buffalo that we did not know, even being life-long residents.
Have already recommended the tour to our friends!!!

The Segway tour was terrific. I was very impressed with the training- very thorough with a strong emphasis on safety. The tour itself was extensive and eye-opening. What a beautiful city Buffalo is!
I highly recommend this tour to locals and visitors alike.

Hi Norm, Brandon & Mom!
Last week was the most fun I had in a long while. Never would have imagined myself on a Segway. My brother Victor tricked me and you all were in on the surprise and I loved it once I was so properly
and patiently trained. You guys turned my fear into a wonderful experience. This 61 year old is ready to roll again! Thank you Victor, Inez, Norm & Brandon.

Phenomenal tour!! One of the best tours I've ever been on. The segways are so fun to ride and norm and Brandon are fantastic tour guides! I grew up here and learned history of the area I never knew.
A must try tour!

We had a great time. Training was good and anybody can do this. The tour is interesting and takes you to places you don't normally see driving around the city. Segways are a lot of fun.

Thoroughly enjoyed our Segway tour of Buffalo. Our tour guides were Norm and Brandon and they were outstanding! They gave us a 30-minute safety class before the tour started and took the time to make
sure each of us was comfortable before starting off on our tour of the Delaware Park area (site of the 1901 Pan American Exhibition). Riding a Segway makes it easy and effortless to cover much more
territory than we could possibly do on foot. As we sped by walking tourists, they watched us with great envy! Several people asked if they could join the tour midway. This tour was incredible. I
don't think it could have been better in any way. Riding on the Segway was quick, easy, breezy, and fun. Don’t miss this tour when you visit Buffalo!

What a great tour and that too on a Segway!!!! My sister was here from India and I wanted to take her on a tour she would never forget. This was awesome. So you go on a segway throughout Buffalo, places like Delaware Park, near the water..etc. All the staff are so polite. They will first have a class where they teach you how to function the segway and then only when you are completely confident do they take you out on the tour. They will give you water, gatorade if you get thirsty and let you take pics as well. If you are in Buffalo, and defy want a tour and not the old fashioned bus tours, take this SEGWAY tour for sure.

Norm and Brandon took us on a great tour of North Buffalo. The Segway instruction was comprehensive and thorough. They took their time with us until we were comfortable on our own. They're really fun
and easy to ride and we had a terrific time. We'll definitely go again and bring friends. Thanks guys, and Cheryl too for taking care of all the gear.

My son came in from Michigan to spend Mother's Day with me and it was also his birthday so I wanted to do something special for him. I surprised him with a 2 hour Segway tour and it was the best 2 hours we spent over the weekend. What fun and what great tour guides Norm and his son Brandon are. We saw things in Buffalo that we had never seen just riding by them on the highway; the Segway is very easy to ride and control; it's a MUST if you're looking for something special to do this summer; you won't be sorry you took the tour.

Norm & Brandon provided an extensive training session (easily 20 minutes) so that my 75 year old mother and I were completely confortable by the time we started the tour. Even as a native of Buffalo, I learned something about the history of the area. Would definitely recommend this outing.

We had an AMAZING time on the Segways with Norm and Brandon. It was so cool to ride them, it felt like flying. Buffalo is really so beautiful and full of history. The free museum ticket was a great bonus. The tour along with riding the Segway is double the fun and excitement! We will definitely be doing this again. Thank you!

My husband surprised me with a Segway tour for my birthday, and I wasn't sure if I would be able to do it...coordination isn't my middle name. As soon as we pulled up to the training area, Norm and Brandon not only had a Happy Birthday sign waiting for me, but they were very reassuring that I would have no problem. They were right! Within a few minutes, I was in the swing of things and had the best time ever!! I can't thank my husband for one of the BEST gifts ever, and Norm and Brandon made my day complete. There aren't enought adjectives to describe what a wonderful, fun and interesting time we had. I can't wait to do it again.

I bought my husband a gift certificate for this experience for his birthday and had to buy one for myself. I was a little apprehensive as I am a little accident prone. Absolutely no worries! Norm and his son, Brandon, give a thorough training experience. They are both patient and kind. Within minutes we felt like pros on the Segway. What a blast! Our tour was beyond what we expected. Not only was it a Segway tour,but a brief Buffalo tour of the area around the History Museum including Hoyt Lake, Delaware Park, and an outside look at the Darwin Martin House.They even take a picture of you on the Segway and email it to you! So cool! We loved every second of our tour. It is so worth the price. We look forward to doing it again. This Buffalo experience should not be missed!

I had a wonderful time. Learned some very interesting facts about Buffalo. Thought I would never be able to do this, but the training by Brandon and Norm was great and I got the hang of it in no
time. I would do this again and again.

I cannot say enough good things about this experience. I found out about this through a fellow co-worker and decided to give it a try for my (newly made) fiances birthday. I put together a little
flyer and stuck it in her birthday card. When shesaw what we would be doing her first reaction was excitement and the second reaction was "how did you(I) find out about this?"
This adventure is well worth it! Norm and Brandon could not be two better guides suited for this. They take the time to not only make you comfortable on the Segway but are also very Intuitive with
how the route is designed to keep you moving and always looking aroud at the beautiful surroundings.
Everyone that lives in the area or is visiting the area needs to take advantage of this and help spread the word. I took a STACK of cards and got rid of them in 1 day.
We look forward to coming back again and again. Thanks Norm and Brandon!!! Lets not forget Mrs. Norm!!!!

The best birthday present ever. I have wanted to try a segway since they first came out. My husband Dennis & I had so much fun. After a learning session we were off on an adventure. Brandon & Norm couldn't have made it any more fun & historically informative than they did. I would recommend this tour for everyone.

I grew up in North Buffalo, but moved to Rochester 40 some years ago. Norm & Brandon did an excellent job showcasing the area as well as showing us some of the historic sites in Buffalo. The trip brought back many memories of my years growing up in Buffalo. Norm & Brandon are great tour directors, teachers and guides. Segways are easy to learn to ride which what makes it such an exciting and enjoyable experience. Thanks for a wonderful trip. It made a great birthday present for one of the members of our group.

Riding a segway is awesome in and of itself. Add to it the friendliness and knowledge of Norm & his son, Brandon, and it makes for a unique way to learn about the history of North Buffalo.

Every phase of Buffalo Touring's Segway riding experience is fun! The location is geographically and historically perfect.
In a matter of minutes you'll feel safe and comfortable on the scooter. This tour is so good, I'd recommend buying season tickets!

My husband surprised me with the Segway tour for my birthday. What a riot! Norm and Brandon were very attentive teachers, making sure we were comfortable, and then off we went. We had so much fun,
even though it was cold! I would recommend this to ANYONE. We wanted to just ride the Segways home! A great way to spend an afternoon, and also we got a great history lesson from Brandon about all
the sights we visited. Highly recommended!!

My sister was visiting from Cleveland, so I took her on a tour of Buffalo "Segway style." What a great time! Brandon and Norm were knowledgeable and fun, and the Segway's were a riot!
Paul Friedrich

It was super. I wish I could have broken away and taken the Segway home. It felt like a part of me and I hated to part with it.
The tour was excellent and very interesting. I hope to do it again with more friends and see other parts of the city.
Two thumbs up!

This was a surprise for my wife Kathy and she wasn't sure about the Segway.
BUT we were both surprised at how easy they were to ride. Norm and Brandon did a GREAT job with getting us comfortable on the Segway.
The tour was great and Brandon is very well informed with historical information on the tour.
Thanks guys! ! !

The Buffalo Touring Company has made it fun to see many Buffalo attractions on a Segway! Norm and Brandon took a great amount of time to make sure that you learned how to ride the Segway on your own.
It was a long tour that took us around Delaware Park and many other great places. You also learn a lot of interesting facts as you go along the tour. I had a great time and highly recommend this
tour!
Bonnie

What a blast! I highly recommend this tour to both Buffalo visitors and Buffalo residents.
I took my sister on a Saturday tour and it was one of the best experiences. First, it is easy to schedule with three time options and quick response time from the coordinators. Second, the staff is more than just instructors and guides - they are entertainers who really care about your enjoyment. Third, I learned things about Buffalo I had never heard before. The tour was personal, intimate, enjoyable and educational. What more could you ask for
Congrats Buffalo Touring Company for making the Seqway Tour a highlight of Buffalo's offerings! We will be back

SO MUCH FUN!! The Segway Tour was such an enjoyable experience, that I will definitely do it again! Norm began by thoroughly explaining the Segway, and how to ride it. Norm and Brandon took an extensive amount of time to ensure that you were able to comfortably and safely ride the Segway independently. They even made you go through and obstacle course – it was great! Before we began the tour, they made sure we were all hooked up to walkie-talkies, to make certain that we were able to hear the tour guide as he spoke along the tour. Then Brandon led our tour. He was a great tour guide who definitely did his research! We toured along great Buffalo attractions such as the Darwin D. Martin House, Albright- Knox Art Gallery, Delaware Park, and Hoyt Lake. We learned many interesting and unknown facts about these popular Buffalo landmarks! It was such a unique way to tour Buffalo on a Segway! I had a wonderful time and highly recommend this tour to Buffalo natives and tourists!

We greatly enjoyed our guided small group tour and the personal attention we received. The new Segways are easy to use and the emphasis was on our safety. Many of the beautiful views cannot be seen
by car and we were given a fresh appreciation of Buffalo and its history. We definitely recommend this tour.

The training provided before the tour was thorough and Norm and Brandon are both competent and knowlegeble. This assured a tour that was fun, exciting, and something different. The history lesson,
the numerous sites, and riding the Segway was engaging and provided two hours of non-stop entertainment and delight. This company has done its homework--I had a fantastic time!

What a great time! We took the tour yesterday and we're busy telling everyone about it today. Not only was it a ton of fun to ride a Segway, but we also learned a lot of new information about Buffalo and one of the most interesting areas of the city. We truly had a great time and didn't want to give the Segways back! It's so nice to know there are new and exciting ways to have fun here in Buffalo. We highly recommend this tour for visitors and residents alike! (Just bring good sneakers!) Congratulations on the new business and lots of luck.

This is one of the best tours I've ever done and a "must do" for natives and tourists. Can't believe how easy they were to handle. Our guides were very well informed of the history surrounding the points of interest. Glad to see a new, creative family business celebrating some of the highlights of Buffalo's sites! We'll be back with guests!!

HI Brandon and Norm! The Segway Tour was amazing!!!! Easily one of the best things we have ever done in Buffalo. We had never been on a Segway before and the pre-tour training session was excellent putting us both at ease and giving us confidence with the Segways. Norm and Brandon are very professional and great guys with a vast depth of knowledge about Buffalo's interesting and varied histories and they clearly have a real passion for what they do!!! We would recommend the Segway Tour to anyone wanting to see Buffalo in a new light - it's great fun, informative and a total blast and a great way to get around and see the city.......10/10 for the tour in terms of value for money......10/10 for customer services and 10/10 for the fun factor!!!!.....and we will be returning for the tour the next time we are in Buffalo!!! THANK YOU!!!!! from Kirstie and Marc - Preston, England :)
