The 9 BEST Valencia Segway Tours in 2021 - en.Yumping.com

The Segway is one of the most original vehicles you can use to visit the city of Valencia.

This vehicle uses an electrical motor which doesn’t produce polluting emissions. It is then a sustainable vehicle that takes care of the environment. The Segway is an individual, two-wheeled vehicle which is operated with a person standing and gripping the handlebar.

Because of the speed and the type of circuits that the Segway can cross, it is the perfect substitute for traditional routes by foot. You will be able to do longer routes at the same time and without getting tired. Both adults and children can ride a Segway if they meet the requirements of height and weight to operate it. Children from 8 years old usually meet them, but this always will depend on the conditions that the Segway company tells you before starting the tour.

The Segway is very easy and intuitive to operate. It is like keeping up your body movement. The instructor will give you all the necessary directions. In any guided tour, the instructor will use the first minutes to show you the basic directions: move forward, stop and turn. To advance, we must slightly move our body forward. To stop, we must slightly move our body backward. And to turn, we must slightly move our body towards the side we want the Segway to turn over.
