The Honey Hirn plantation is such a beautiful spot for a Segway tour. Liz, our guide, was amazing. She had great stories about the history of the area and the ride was very fun!

Liz was our guide and she was great. She gave us a quick lesson on operating the segways and then Liz took us all over the area and told us about the history. We went on some gorgeous trails in the woods. It was a blast and Liz made it so fun! I would definitely do it again.
Great fun way to explore the Discovery Museum grounds and learn interesting facts about the history of the area and eco system. Loved it!
So much fun! Our tour guide, Liz, took the time to help us familiarize ourselves with the segways. They were well maintained and easy to use. We loved taking in the scenery while zipping through the trails. Liz shared interesting info about the flora/fauna and historical context. Would definitely do this again!
Our guide, Wyatt, was wonderful! He told us he was a new guide, but he made the tour so much fun. My wife and I ended up having a private tour (we were the only two booked) and Wyatt made the tour all about what we wanted. Beautiful grounds, excellent dive into history. Highly recommended!
Chris was an amazing guide! He was very informative, knew so much history about the island and took us on a really fun segway ride! We went through the beautiful forest, on the boardwalk in the marsh, open grassland and around a lake. Highly recommend this tour because the scenery is so pretty.
A very fun tour! Chris was our guide and made the experience awesome. Would definitely take the tour again.
Informative and fun. Plenty of riding which is what you want in a Segway tour! We loved our guide too!!
The Segway tour was a lot of fun. The instructor was through and informative. The tour was comprehensive about the land however also full of ride time. We did some great off-roading. It was a great time!!!!!
We drove 30 mins to our appointment time. We get there, no one is there. We finally called them and they tell us they had canceled it. We received no notification telling us it had been canceled. Won't ever try to use them again.
Loved the beautiful tour. Our 10-year-old grandson was really enjoying himself. It’s one of the few times lately that we’ve seen a genuine smile on his face. Thank you HHSegway!!
What a wonderful experience with Segway leader - Bob! Even my 15 year old daughter would like to do it again. We have never been to HHI or tried a Segway, so this was a great way to learn more about HHI and learn to ride a Segway. Great fun all around!!
BEWARE! Horrible customer service, this tour came up when searching things to do in Charleston, SC on TripAdvisor. We booked as this was our fist time visiting SC, when we were planning out our day the night before the tour we realized both this tour and another we booked were 2 hours away from Charleston. Cancellation policy is to cancel 24 hours prior to tour for both tours, we immediately contacted both tours that night as soon as we realized. The other company super nice, helpful accommodating and refunded the trip on the first contact with them. This company however, decided $190 would be worth a bad customer review and taking tourist who were unaware of the area for their money….furthermore they responded through TripAdvisor basically calling us liars. I would save your money and book with a company who has higher standards and exhibits true southern hospitality.
This Segway experience was fabulous! My mom and I went for the first time ever and our guide, Chris, did a phenomenal job! He was an excellent instructor, very knowledgeable and covered a lot of area with us. We even ventured over to Jarvis Creek Park and saw some alligators. He was incredibly safe the entire time. We loved this and absolutely recommend the tour!
This was so much fun!!! You will become a solid rider in just minutes. Our group was in their late 60s to mid 70s so age is no excuse! Our guide was wonderful and very knowledgeable of the low country ecosystem. Plenty of "off road" fun with the segways. Simply a must do when you are in the Hilton Head area.
We had a wonderful private family tour - 8 of us from 14-84 years old - with Segway leaders Bob and Liz. Our family has been to the Discovery Coastal Museum before but not on Segways, and they were able to show us more and teach us more than we'd ever seen before. Good instructions for the use of Segways, good length of the trip, good rest stops, good fun riding over a variety of terrain, good fun all around! We would all highly recommend this excursion!
John was an excellent Segway guide. He was very informative, but also fun. We thoroughly enjoyed our 90 minutes and would definitely return.
We booked a private tour for our party of 6 - age 12 to 67. Our guide Chris, was amazing! Highly recommend this tour.
Awesome time. Both me and my 13 year old daughter loved it. First time on Segways and was easy to learn. Chris did a great job narrating the tour and ensuring we had a great experience.
Our guide was very patient and professional. Enjoyed learning to use a segway for the first time. Interesting info about the island at first, then a fun ride through the nature trails.
This adventure was informative, interesting and lots of fun. Kim and John were fabulous to work with. I’d give it 10 stars if I could just for the way John made the tour fun and successful for a family member who found it challenging.
Alison made our trip so memorable she was so nice and full of enthusiasm. Made us feel at ease from the moment we arrived. Great trip around the Castle grounds and through the Forrest. The views to the snow capped mountains was amazing 😻
We are two retired couples from Nova Scotia. We had always wanted to try riding Segways and this tour looked to be what we were looking for. We were not disappointed! A bit of trepidation at first (especially after watching the safety video…LOL), but within minutes all were extremely comfortable slaloming around the practice area. Beyond the fun of the Segway, the tour was excellent! John, our guide was entertaining and extremely knowledgeable. This was one of the best things we have done on Hilton Head. Make sure you visit the Coastal Discovery Museum while you are here.
We had a blast. Our tour guide, John, was so personable and knowledgeable. The right amount of time and the weather was perfect. Thanks for a memorable day.
Riding through the live Oak Grove was so so beautiful! I repeat. Riding through the live Oak Grove was so beautiful.
We had never ridden segways, so that was definitely part of the fun. We loved riding the nature trails, especially through the old growth live oaks! Chris gave some interesting historical info at various stops along the way. Honey Horn is beautiful!
Our guide Chris was friendly, helpful, and a great teacher for new Segway users. Great guide, informative and interesting. Loved this tour-lots of history and nature information! Highly recommend!
Highly recommend this guided tour with commentary! Chris led us through the 70 acres nature preserve. Our guide was super knowledgeable and we asked a ton of questions while he answered every one! This was worth the 90 minutes especially with the all terrain wheels allowing us to cover trails and pavement with ease! Doing this without Chris' knowledge would not have been as enjoyable or educational. Great insights and a ton of fun!
Chris was great and we learned so much, both of us on the tour had a really interesting experience despite it being just us. Even though one of us fell off when we were going too fast, still an exciting and educational experience. One tip: Chris, park in the shade when you are telling us about the history so we can comfortably enjoy the talk. Thanks!!!
So much fun. Our tour guide John was very patient with us, as it was our first time in a Segway. He had a wealth of knowledge about the area. I was a fun adventure for our family.
Each year I pick a new activity to do on our vacation week and this was it for 2022. We had done Segways before so I knew we would enjoy it. Janet, our guide, was awesome, knowledgeable and made it a great time. Riding trails, seeing the salt marsh, and some of the historical markers added to the fun of just riding a Segway. Highly recommend!
Our host Mary was exceptional and enthusiastic. Everyone who likes history will love this tour . It does get very hot outside on the Segway, so dress appropriately!
Although we were novices on the Segway, you could not tell. The boys and I caught on quickly thanks to the excellent instructions from Elizabeth, our guide. We jetted around the Honey Horn like pros and then on to Jarvis Creek Park, where we saw alligators and other animals. The history of Honey Horn was interesting. We even visited the museum. I would recommend this tour,
Great time riding the Segways. Chris was very patient with this ole lady learning to ride again. Even taught me how to get on without being shaky. Now if I just get the dips down am good to go. He was very informative on the history of the area and always seemed to know when we needed a break. Enjoyed the Segway excursion immensely.
Our party of four thoroughly enjoyed the tour. A very educational and fun experience on a high-end Segway (fat tire for off-road, not the slim paved-road version). Mary, our tour guide, was an outstanding professional with a big heart and patience. She Airdropped the photos and videos to my wife's iPhone (the rest of us had Android phones). But my wife's phone ran out of memory for the videos. It took a couple of days after the tour, but Mary followed through on her promise to send the big files through emails. Strongly recommended.
The Segway riding was so much fun and easier than we expected. Mary was a knowledgeable tour guide and shared many interesting facts about the history of HHI and the nature that abounds here.
What a great activity! Our group was guided by Chris, a friendly soft spoken raft of local knowledge who gave us all confidence in our new found skill allowing us to simply enjoy the experience. I can not recommend these guys highly enough. If your visiting Hilton Head Island and you don't try this out you will kick yourself. Thankyou for 90 minutes of tremendous fun. We are definitely going to try another of the tours available. In short BRILLIANT!
How the eco system relates to the land and history points of the island. The earth is truly our vessel to life and everyone is responsible in taking care of it, how we sail in the future depends on us. Rick was wonderful guide and instructor.
Our guide was tremendous! Very professional and knowledgeable. We had a blast. We loved learning facts about the area and had a tremendous Segway ride like any other we had been on!! Definitely recommend this tour!!
Fun & easy to learn. Our guide, Bobby, was very knowledgeable and lots of fun. We really enjoyed the experience!
The history and nature were great and well presented Bob did a great job bringing it all together He was very patient with teaching us how to use the segways
Chris was kind, patient and knowledgeable He made sure we all felt comfortable and safe. He provided us with useful information about the island and its history.
We loved this segway tour. It's the perfect mix of education and fun. You'll learn not only about the farm but about Hilton Head in general. This includes information about the ecosystem and its connection to American history. It was fantastic. Our children are 13, 11, and 9. They actually really liked it and want to do it again. And our tour guide was so helpful and knowledgeable.
Thank you Jill for the delightful segway tour at Honey Horn the first week of May 2021. We started with segway practice and then toured the grounds. The tour was filled with interesting information and Jill addressed all of our questions. The site is interesting with a variety of stops. After the tour we visited the museum and butterfly garden. I would recommend this to others.
We had a fantastic time. Our guide was very knowledgeable and so nice. We would highly recommend this tour to all visiting Hilton Head.
We took our two kiddos on the eco discovery tour and had Doc as our guide. It was so amazing and we loved every minute of it! The company was awesome to work with and made it all so easy!
We had a fun afternoon with Jill! This is a fun, informative way to see the natural features of the area including wildlife and plants. The kids had fun as first time Segway riders.
Lovely setting for a ride. Educational but not TOO educational... in other words, a nice, enjoyable pace. The Segways were great, and our guide (Elizabeth) was helpful and friendly.
Jarvis Creek Park was our favorite tour site. We actually saw a small alligator splashing in the water. Elizabeth was an excellent guide. She was very attentive in making sure that we were fully informed of the historical events of the area.
My husband & I took the 90 minute tour. Elizabeth was our guide. She was great! Very knowledgeable about the history of Hilton Head Island. It was so beautiful & peaceful to ride through nature. Thank you Elizabeth!
