Around the World – On a Segway
Good Afternoon. I just returned from my Around the World — On a Segway tour at Epcot. It was really awesome! The Segway is amazing and very simple to learn. We had a great group of people and two very nice and knowledgeable Cast Members who trained us to ride and then took us around the World Showcase.
I highly recommend you add this tour to your next Disney vacation!
The cost is only $80 (or $60 for Annual Passholder) for a two hour tour. The first hour was spent learning about the Segway and how to ride. The second hour was spent out in the park. We were told that we were now honorary Cast Members, that we were “On Stage” and that we should expect to draw crowds and lots of attention. They weren’t kidding! Everyone was really nice and once we made our way around to China the World Showcase was all ours!
I’ve posted a short video of my Segway experience here:
