Customer Reviews

We (family of 4 with two boys aged 10 and 13)thoroughly enjoyed this experience in the beautiful knysna.our guide was friendly,very personable and also informative on the local area and nature. The forested area where we went on three separate scooter rides was beautiful and the scooter were definitely fast enough to be a lot of fun but safe. The guide stopped a few times to point out various indigenous trees which we found informative as we are nature lovers. The kids loved the activity as we did. - Julian heath


Great tour by friendly and informative guides. - Andrew Goodacre (MPN)


Would recommend this activity. We are 2 adults and 2 children aged 11 and 14. Really good fun and the boys loved it. The 2 guys leading the tour were great fun also and felt safe. - Debbie Cluness (NMB)


Great fun! Lots of patience as my daughter was very nervous. Informative. Great scenery. Guides were great and knew there stuff! Thank you! - Beverley Dutton


Wow what a rush! My 2 teens and husband had an absolute blast. I was a bit more nervous but the guide was very patient and took things at my pace. A great experience and once you realise the scooters are able to go over large rocks and stones it felt a bit safer!! It took me out of my comfort zone but I would definitely do it again! - Katie Gibson

Customer Reviews

We were a family of four on holiday from the UK and had great fun. It's the first time any of us had tried and we were are a bit nervous beforehand. However, within a few minutes we were all zooming around like pros. Our instructor was fantastic and we all had so much fun, so we will definitely be doing it again if and when we are back. - Peter Grant


I enjoyed the experience tremendously! Our guide, Lollie, was patient, friendly and informative. It's a beautiful trip through the forest and a fun way to take it. - Joshua Gouws


Awesome experience, addictive once on the go, feels as if you do not want the route to come to a end- we really felt safe and the tour guide Madom was amazing. - Kelly Farmer


So much fun to explore Tsitsikamma on a segway tour. The guide was professional and allowed time for orientation and practice before we headed off. My husband and I (both in our 50s) really enjoyed this experience. - Anne Jorgensen


We had a very good experience with Segway. The staff were super friendly and helpful. The guide was the best ever! There were 3 of our team members who refused to go on the scooters. The guide motivated them so much that they gave it a try and they were not sorry. We all enjoyed it so much and it was a great team building experience. - Valencia Sheik
