Great tour. So nice to have someone share some of the city’s history and point out plants as we walked through Sunken Gardens. (And the walk through the gardens was a nice break). Hope to come back again!!

Whatever word that is better than "amazing" is what this tour and guide is. My wife, granddaughter and I had a special day with Doo's Amazing Tours. The segway tour was so much fun. From the up-close encounter with a dolphin to the amazing scenery and the guides descriptions and information. Go do it now!
Fantastic Segway tour all over St Pete waterfront as well as Sunken Gardens. Louisa (aka “Doo “) is a long time local with a wealth of knowledge! Hearing her through a headset made all the difference as we covered 12 miles and could hear her narrate everything we were seeing in real time! She took pictures of us at all the hot spots and was very thorough in making sure we knew how to safely operate the segways (super easy & user friendly)… We saw dolphins, stingrays rays & many species of birds! She gave great tips on restaurants to check out and best parts of town to explore!! Such a great time!! Totally worth the time & money!! We did 10am tour in April.. perfect weather!!
It was the perfect excursion to learn about the area the segways were so fun I had my 14yr and 17yr and they love it to
Best Segway tour of the several I have taken. Tour guide (founder & owner) is a font of knowledge. Well worth the cost.
We have been on several of Louisa’s tours and loved them all. Today we did the Eco Segway tour of the Sunken Gardens. So much fun zipping through the downtown and historic sections of St Pete. Louisa’s knowledge of plants and sea life is second to none, and her playful banter is very entertaining. Highly recommend this adventure.
Hade a great time. Felt confident operating the Segway. Would recommend. She was very information about the local wildlife and plants.
This tour is wonderful! Louisa made us feel comfortable from the get-go. We needed training since this was our first time on a Segway. You get to see the shoreline and the city's major tourist attractions. We had narration throughout, especially when we went into the Sunken Garden. Louisa is very knowledgeable about plants! We went through the old section of town with 100-year-old homes that are beautiful We highly recommend this tour, and Louisa as the guide.
It was terrific. She goes over and above for you. The Sunken Gardens tour portion was informative and interesting
Louisa was patient getting us used to the segways until we were all comfortable. Her tour info was really interesting and her plant knowledge of the Sunken Garden was impressive. I would do this tour again,
Knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate, Doo was a joy to be around as she led us through St. Petersburg! She made sure our experience was one to remember!
You MUST go on this tour! It was SO FUN! You get a lot of time on the segway (so fun). We got to see a dolphin in the wild and a manatee! The Sunken Gardens are amazing, and our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable about all of the different plants. She is also a bird whisperer and got the kookaburra talking! Our tour guide recommended an amazing place to eat. She entertained us with detailed history and interesting facts about the area. She was very flexible, and we had many photo opportunities, restroom breaks, and she provided water and sunscreen. This was one of the BEST segway tours I have ever had the privilege to take.
Very informative, very polite and great nerves to put up with me. Lol Husband and I had a great time.
Even though the weather didn’t cooperate. It didn’t stop our tour! Our tour guide came prepared with ponchos and we were full speed ahead. Our guild had a wealth of knowledge about St. Petersburg and the plants and animals that surround it: Our group ranged in age from 13-74. Fun was had by all!
This is a must do!! Doo was an amazing guide. She was so informative, helpful, patient and pleasant. She took the time to make sure we felt comfortable operating the Segway and made sure we saw everything The sunken gardens was wonderful and she really made it interesting with her knowledge of the history and plants. St Pete’s pier was a great place to visit with free trans and buses We’d definitely do this again
I had never been on a Segway and she put the group at ease instructing us on their use. She was very knowledgeable about St. Petersburg and everything in the Sunken Garden. This was as great way to see more of city! Louisa (Doo) was delightful!
Fantastic tour! Louisa was marvelous describing the many sights on the trip—the harbor area, old northeast district, and the arboretum were noteworthy. Knowledge and interesting facts about the wildlife is neat and impressive. The sunken gardens was very special. We felt safe and well-taken care of the entire time. So appreciated her time and expertise.
We booked our very first Segway ride with Louisa as part of our 40th wedding anniversary celebration. She is a very good Segway instructor and very safety conscious, so don't be afraid to give her tour a try. Louisa is extremely knowledgeable of the St. Pete area and the Sunken Gardens. She explains the history, sites, flora and fauna exceedingly well! She provides plenty of time for Q&A and pictures. She is very personable and professional. We highly recommend this fun and informative way to see St. Pete.
Tour was amazing, Louisa was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of St. Pete and the Sunken Garden portion of the tour was truly great. Louisa was rattling off the names of flowers and plants that left my mom and I extremely impressed.
We took about grown grandkids on this amazing Segway tour! Louisa is best tour guide of any Segway we've been on! And we've been on several. She's very informative of area we covered, history of St Pete and Sunken Gardens! By the way sunken Gardens were beautiful and amazing too! Highly recommend Doo's Segway over others in the area. Segway newer and easier to handle. Fun way to tour St Pete!
My wife and I took the 2.5 hour Eco Segway tour and loved it! Louisa is wonderful - felt totally safe weaving through 12 miles of St Pete, enjoyed learning a LOT about vegetation and animals unique to Florida. Great visit at the Hanging Gardens and saw some manatees! Highly recommend Doo’s!!!
Louisa was an awesome tour guide. She was friendly and very knowledgeable. Louisa made sure we were safe and answered any questions we had.
Best segway tour in St. Petersburg. Doo did a great job making sure we felt safe at the beginning and all the way through the tour. Her narration is continual and awesome! Loved the tour through the Sunken Gardens. She can even make the cuckaburra talk back!
FANTASTIC! Doo was extremely friendly, a patient teacher, and so knowledgeable about the area. Our family LOVED this activity when it was cool to sit in the beach. Booking was easy, great communication. We’d highly recommend!!! THANKS DOO!!
My family had so much fun on this tour! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and also did a fantastic job of making sure we all felt comfortable the whole time. This was also a terrific way to see the Sunken Gardens!
By far this is one of funnest days my husband and I have had. Tour guide was amazing. This was our first time on a segway. She took her time with us learning how to use the segway. My husband went first, wobbled trying to catch his balance, and almost completely gave up. She was totally ok with giving us a refund if he wasn't comfortable. But then he tried again with him and suddenly he got it! Didn't take us long to feel like pro's on those segways. She was so knowledgeable about St Pete and we even learned a few things! We never felt rushed in any of our stops along the way. One of my favorites was when got that bird going at Sunken Grdens (which i hadn'tbeen to since i was a kid). We highly recommend this activity. In 6 we were both looking at getting some segways when we got finished! Had a blast.
The Segway tour was amazing. Our guide was very knowledgeable and took us on a tour around St Petersburg and then up to sunken Gardens where she gave us a guided tour around sunken Gardens and knew every plant. My wife is in avid Gardener, so she really loved this part. Worth every penny
Doo was great! We had the best time! A couple of us had ridden a Segway before, but for those who hadn't, she went through a training session and everyone felt comfortable and safe. She is very patient and it was the most fun!!
We went on the Eco Segway Tour, and Louisa "Doo" was fantastic! Thoughtful, kind, professional,knowledgeable, and fun are the words that come to mind. Book this tour, you won't regret it! Thank you again!
This was our first Eco Segway Tour (my wife's first Segway anywhere - she did great). The tour took us through the city to the Sunken Gardens where we have never been. Doo is an amazing guide. She guided us through the city AND guided us all the way through the gardens. I am not sure how she keeps all that info in her head. It is an "amazing" tour.
Guide very efficiently taught us to ride the Segways. She was very knowledgeable about all of the wildlife and plants that we passed, and was a wonderful guide to the sunken gardens. I highly recommend.
Doo was really awesome with my 14 year old grandson and I. Great tour of St. Pete and loved walking through Sunken Gardens. She knew every plant by name! We also got good information about the city, spectacular views and pictures lots of history. Highly recommend!
Louisa was fantastic! She was patient and kind and extremely knowledgeable about ALL aspects of our Segway tour. The headsets were very comfortable. We tremendously enjoyed the Sunken Gardens stop as well. She walked us through the entire gardens explaining and identifying the plants and flowers along the way. We viewed St Pete from one end to the other. We can’t wait to go again! Big thumbs up!
We have previously experienced more than seven Segway tours in Tampa, St Pete and the Caribbean. This was absolutely the best one ever! Louisa was extremely knowledgeable, patient and informative throughout the tour. We traveled about 12 miles from one end of St Pete to the other. A true highlight was visiting Sunken Gardens which is included in the tour. Louisa really took special care of us and let us linger as long as we wanted in the gardens. She was the perfect host and guardian! Highly recommend!
Great overview of a charming city-loved sunken gardens and guide knew a lot about the plants and birds
Louisa was very knowledgeable about the local flora and fauna as well as historical facts about the buildings and locations we visited. We enjoyed the Sunken Gardens, going through a park with 100’s of species of palm trees, and seeing dolphins hunting fish at our feet along the break wall. We especially liked having the headsets so we could hear our guide even when we weren’t right next to her. The start/end location was perfect as we were able to walk the pier and find great restaurants nearby without having to find a new place to park. The Segways were really fun and Louisa gave us individual attention and plenty of time to make sure we were comfortable on our machines. Highly recommend this tour!
Our tour guide was personal, positive and a wealth of knowledge. After whipping around the waterfront enjoying dolphins and manatee we got to enjoy the flora & fauna at Sunken gardens.
My husband, daughter and I had a really fun time with Doo on this tour. She provided great instructions before heading out and was very patient as we got the hang of the Segways. She was extremely knowledgeable about the St Petersburg area and the stop at the Sunken Gardens was fantastic. Would definitely recommend this activity to others.
Wonderful tour of Saint Petersburg with Louisa was our guide. She was an expert on the area and shared a lot of interesting information on the city. She wore a head set and each guest had an earpiece which allowed her to share information without stopping. She has a keen eye for finding wildlife which allow us to view Dolphins and Manatees. We enjoyed our walk thru the Sunken Gardens, and our experience was enhanced by Louisa providing her knowledge. This tour was an excellent experience & I'd highly recommend our tour Louisa!
First Segway tour. 2 out of 4 of us had never ridden. Louisa had everyone feeling good about riding in just a few minutes. Very knowledgeable tour guide with just the right amount of sharing her knowledge on our ride. Highly recommend her as a tour guide!
Fantastic experience. Great lesson and easy to ride the segway even with our teen. Dolphins along shore. Sunken garden tour had great stories and interaction with fish and birds. Highly recommend!
Our guide was excellent very knowledgeable about the area answered all of our questions and made sure our experience 👍🏻👍🏻
Our family (2 adults and 2 teenagers) had an amazing time on this tour! A definite highlight of our trip to Florida. Louisa was full of great information and having the headset so she could narrate all along the tour was great. It was our first time on Segway's and she was patient and helped us get comfortable before starting the tour. We went to the Sunken Gardens which was beautiful, Louisa new every plant and could even do the bird call and later got a dolphin to come and visit by the seawall. Thanks for a great tour! Would highly recommend!
Our guide was amazing! Louisa was very knowledgeable and it was obvious that she was trying to make our Segway outing the best trip for us! Sunken Gardens was beautiful!!
A couple years ago my wife and I went on this tour and had a great time. This time we went with our children. Lots of fun and very informative. Highly recommended!
Excellent your. Don’t miss out on a fantastic day. We had never been on a Segway but love them now. Louise was super safety conscious and so helpful. It was one of our all time favorite tours and we have been around the world. Beautiful sites, fun Segway and great guide! We will return next year. I highly recommend having lunch at the pier restaurant afterwards that Louise told us about. The food and views were amazing and not overpriced.
My wife and I are somewhat addicted to Segway tours and have been on numerous ones all over the US. This by far was the best most thought out tour with a just enough breaks, a little walking in the breath taking "Sunken Garden" many photo-ops and wildlife to enjoy. Louisa made us feel like it was the most important tour she has ever done. She is extremely knowledgeable about about the area history, plant and wildlife. We wish we could give her 10 stars. Stop reading reviews trust me and book this tour, You will not be sorry.
My sister and I had an amazing time on Doo’s Segway tour!! She is extremely knowledgeable and made the tour so much fun. Enjoyed the Sunken Gardens durning our tour. It’s a must see with Doo. She literally knows all the names of the plants and even had the birds dancing and speaking to us. We will definitely be booking more tours with her in the future.
Wow! Louisa was our tour guide and she is incredible! Her knowledge of the area and all of the unique plant and wildlife is fantastic. We had so many wonderful photo opportunities along our journey and lots of laughs. I travel a lot and have experienced other Segway tours and they just aren’t as good. I will book future tours with Doo’s and can’t wait to bring others with me.
Such a fun tour! Our guide was knowledgeable and patient. The scenery around town and the Sunken Garden were beautiful. Loved having our guide tell us about the flowers, trees, and animals in the gardens. My 15 year old son had a great time as well. Would highly recommend.
