First let me say that once we were able to find the staff we had a great time riding the Segways. Matt lead the group, gave great information about the area history and you could tell his passion for his home in Genoa Italy.
The negative was the poor directions given to find their location. We were told they would meet us “near the aquarium near the bigo elevator “. We found the spot where we were told to meet and no one showed up even past the tour start time. We showed a police officer our printed voucher and all he could do was point to the bigo elevator. We asked several people to no avail until we finally went into one shop where the manager had said she had seen segways in the past in the area. She walked us about a block away from the described meeting point to where they were. Segway staff said it was the fault of Google maps that printed on their vouchers the faulty directions. We were disappointed with this response, even if this was true, they could have had a staff member riding a Segway in the voucher meeting point description to direct us to the right place. We came close to missing the booked tour and causing us anxiety when we were where we were instructed to be.

Fantastic way to see Genoa. We were fortunate that there were only two of us on the tour( out of season and raining) but Mat the guide was informative and very friendly. We were on a cruise ship and bad weather threatened being able to dock but Segway tours were really helpful in accommodating a time change if necessary or even refunding money if we couldn't join. Fortunately not necessarily. I thoroughly recommend

None. DO NOT BOOK THIS TOUR! The tour operator changed the start time twice, WITHOUT MY AUTHORITY, they then moved it back to the original start time, and sent me a text saying IT STARTS IN 9 MINUTES!

We were guided by Matt who was outstanding. Very friendly, huge local knowledge and a great guide. We were lucky as our trip turned out to be just me and my wife so it was almost bespoke but Matt made it. Absolutely worth every Euro. Great way to see Genova and perfect way to choose sites to visit again. Can’t recommend it highly enough.

This tour was fun, interesting and educational. Getting comfortable with the Segway took less time than expected, and Matt made sure we were ready and comfortable before we took off.
This is the BEST way to tour the historic district of Genoa where motorized vehicles are prohibited. You see more in less time with less exertion.

Could have made a better choice to explore Genoa while at the same time have fun with our young children. Mattias and Giusseppe did a great job at sharing city history and insights making sure everyone in our party were safe at all times. Cannot be missed!

Mat met us at the Port. He then escorted us to the shop and got everyone outfitted with a helmet and a segway. A thorough explanation of how to operate a segway was provided and each of us got some practice time in before we began our exploration of Genoa. The tour was informative and Mat was friendly and charismatic. We saw a number of sites in the old town and at the end of the tour we also had time to wander around town (old and new) on our own.
