Scottsdale's Old Town has plenty of stories to tell, and there's no better way to hear them than gliding through on a Segway. After a quick and confidence-building training session in a controlled lot, riders head out with a knowledgeable local guide who threads through the Arts District, historic Civic Center, and the palm-lined Waterfront District, stopping along the way for photos, local trivia, and recommendations on where to grab a bite afterward.

This tour is built for explorers of every experience level. Riders twelve and up get a real feel for a city best known for its gallery-lined streets, desert light, and laid-back Southwest charm, all from the comfort of a self-balancing ride that takes the guesswork out of sightseeing. Bottled water and a helmet are provided, and the pace stays easygoing enough for total beginners to enjoy every minute.
